More Turnaround ChangesĀ 

21/11/2014

Turnaround changes are coming into force this December to help make the return of your film more speedy. We'll be developing all film on the first Monday of each and every month regardless of intake quantity from now on. It's up to you guys and girls to get your film to us a few days before that Monday deadline so we can catalog them in good time. For example I'll be developing Monday December 1st... You guys need to get film to me by the 29th of November. If you miss the developing deadline you will get bumped into the following months batch. I'm hoping this will help simplify the whole turnaround situation in future. Processing will take around a week as will all the scanning (as it usually does). Over the following 6 month we will also be looking into way of reducing this 2 week processing and scanning window. It's time to get streamlined folks! It probably goes without saying but intake and processing updates are no longer required here on the blog with this new approach. I'll update the turnaround section of the website very soon. Have a good weekend all!

Process & Scanning Update

Novembers batch of processing and scanning is all done. Please note if you sent any colour neg film for developing we haven't done yours yet because we're waiting for enough to come in to run a batch of C-41. It's early days for the colour neg service, we hope it picks up so we can at least develop a 1L batch every month.

15 out of 36 in this week. It looks like the winter crunch is hitting with only one cart in last week. If you have any film that needs processing please send it in to help build up Decembers batch!

Hi everyone, Decembers batch is filling up nicely already with 14 out of 36 films in. I'm finishing off the developing for Novembers batch tonight and will be spooling, splicing and scanning everything in over the next week and a half. We have a lot to scan again but I'm positive I can work through them quicker this month now I've got to grips with the Muller's post production workflow. Thanks for keeping the film coming in over the winter month!

You'll all be very happy to know the October batch of processing and scanning is complete. It's been pretty darn hectic since we announced the Muller scans (we had over 3000ft to do in the first batch). Combine that with a new learning curve, some teething problems and a virus or two (health not computer) and the work soon mounted up. I'm back on top of things now so it's business as usual as of Monday. I'd also like to say thanks for you patience. I'm sure you'll agree it was worth it when you see the new scans. Let me know what you think!

I'm not going to be posting eBay ID's or names here anymore after batch completion because we've had a few customers take a disliking to it. It would be ok if it was just one or two customers but we're approaching double digits now and it's getting hard for me to keep track so I'm going to have to put a stop to it. I think 80% of people still message me and don't actually use the updates on here anyway so perhaps it's not such a big deal. Although I apologies to the folks that use it and find it useful. I'm planning to start a different system using dates instead of names. Stay tuned for that. Hope you're all having a great weekend.

Hi everyone, we have a full batch of reversal in so I'll be developing all reversal film this week. We only have 2 colour negative films in so that will have to wait until it fills up a bit.

Half of the last batch has been scanned and posted out but I'm still working on scanning the other half (just getting used to the new Muller Scanner). Sorry for the delay! I'll have them out by the end of this week. Now I've got to grips with the workflow it'll be much quicker for the current batch.
