In this video, I talk about how to shoot both sides of 35mm film by flipping the film over and exposing both sides, step by step.
You can either line up the frames from the front and back, or let the frames be mixed up. I show how to set up the roll either way.
A few notes:
- The ISO you choose will vary the colors and blending between the front and back. A good place to start is -1 stop for the front and +1 stop for the backside, but experiment and see what you like best.
- Try using a flag to block off parts of the frame during one of the exposures. This will allow for more separation to show through.

Hi there. I'm Chris. Film is more fun is a place where I share about whatever busted up old camera I'm currently shooting and tinkering with, or my meanderings in film photography. It would be pretty rad if you said what's up. I'm 99% friendly. Definitely do that. Disclaimer: If you want technical proficiency this might not be the best place. These videos are more like an elderly person navigating a tv remote control. Pretty random and confused.
