What kind of film is this?

Hi there

 

 

I don't know much about film or how different types effect the look of the

image, but I'm wondering what kind of process and medium is needed to achieve

something that looks like this-

Lot's of vanilla kind of tones

 

Thanks

Probably any kind as its just been played with in PS.

Assuming it's film and not digital capture, it's definitely color film.

Beyond that, it could be almost anything. It's not oversaturated, so any of the color negative films popularly used by wedding and portrait photographers could achieve this look without much manipulation at all.

The lighting plays a big role in the look of the photo. It's a single small-to-medium sized source, directly over the camera and perhaps slightly in front of the camera.

If I wanted to attempt this shot in film, I'd use Agfa color negative in 200-400. The grain isn't as tight but if you've never tried it, do so for an experiment like this. I found it very color correct without a load of saturation- I believe less than Kodak pro films.

 

If you can't find Agfa around, check for department store films. The ones that read "Made in Germany" are made by Agfa.

Thanks for the answers. Is Agfa color also available in medium format?

I would try Porta 160 NC Agfa is long gone except on EBAY.

Could be retained silver -- not fully bleached. But most likely digital manipulation.

I believe this was done on digital by a guy named.... get ready for it.... Joey Lawrence. www.joeyl.com. What a mind boggling coincidence that you share the same name!!!!
