1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,080
velcro the microwave and play-doh have nothing to do with

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:10,160
film aside from the fact that They were all accidental inventions in 1727 a

3
00:00:09,040 --> 00:00:13,280
german doctor named johann heinrich schultz was working

4
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:16,720
with silver nitrate That would change color when exposed

5
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:19,720
to light to figure out It was light and not heat Which

6
00:00:19,119 --> 00:00:24,480
caused this discoloration shultz tried baking these nitrates he started

7
00:00:23,240 --> 00:00:27,960
placing cutouts over the solution and exposed it to light

8
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:32,680
creating a permanent shadow of the cutout unlocking the Keys

9
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:35,360
to photography about 100 years later

10
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:38,559
Which US liquid iodine on a silver copper plate

11
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:42,520
allowed for more detailed images other than just shadows this method

12
00:00:41,879 --> 00:00:46,559
was used for the first true photographs Unfortunately the

13
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:51,199
original wet plate made only one Photo per exposure until

14
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:54,840
1841 when William Henry fox talbot created a process

15
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:58,039
That would make a negative image Just Like a mold for

16
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:01,239
vinyl Record this negative image is used to make

17
00:01:00,039 --> 00:01:04,519
multiple Positive copies From A single

18
00:01:03,039 --> 00:01:07,520
negative image the dry plate was later invented and used in

19
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:11,040
combination with a paper base to create the first flexible

20
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:13,840
role of film these roles made photography portable

21
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:17,799
simple and consumer friendly the downside However was

22
00:01:16,159 --> 00:01:20,280
that nitrate film is dangerous the biggest issues were

23
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:24,439
seen in movie theaters nitrate film reels had to pass over an

24
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:28,840
extremely hot light bulb to project an image it even caused

25
00:01:27,119 --> 00:01:33,600
a fire in Paris in 1897 Which claimed

26
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:35,119
126 lives to make matters worse

27
00:01:34,399 --> 00:01:39,000
nitrate film produces ITS own oxygen so a film

28
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:43,920
real catches on fire it must burn itself out until the 1950s

29
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:48,000
special fireproof booths had to be built in theaters so

30
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:52,200
what changed in the 1950s that dosed the Need for fireproof

31
00:01:50,799 --> 00:01:55,479
booths cellulose acetate film happened or safety

32
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:58,960
film for short so Why is it called safety film well

33
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:04,079
most obviously freak Because it didn't create self fueling unstoppable

34
00:02:02,399 --> 00:02:07,320
fires Of course there was a downside However about 10

35
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:10,479
years after safety film became popular reports began

36
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:14,040
popping up of the film starting to degrade releasing

37
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:17,760
acidic acid and unpleasant smells this became known AS

38
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:20,560
vinegar syndrome and brought a great deal of focus to the

39
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:23,920
overall Quality and shelf life of film while

40
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:27,440
this process has been slowed down to about 50 years in ideal

41
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:30,720
conditions It's still an issue with Modern film why

42
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:34,680
haven't we fixed this yet well development of film technology has

43
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:38,000
slowed significantly due to the masses mostly using digital

44
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:40,840
photography methods around the MID 2000s their ability to

45
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:45,319
quickly preview shots and Store thousands of images made digital cameras

46
00:02:43,920 --> 00:02:48,360
much easier and more convenient than film

47
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:51,640
photography overtook the market so much that consumer film

48
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:54,360
sales dropped to less than 1% of what

49
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:59,200
They were during film's peak years so does film still have ground to stand on

50
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:03,480
Where is it headed well there still some advantages to film the main being

51
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:06,560
detail film doesn't have pixels like a digital Camera

52
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:10,879
therefore film's resolution is calculated through angular resolution

53
00:03:09,920 --> 00:03:15,920
the general ability to distinguish small details of an object

54
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:19,480
standard 35 mm film resolution Falls between 4 and 16

55
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:24,200
megapixels with larger film sizes reaching AS high AS

56
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,760
400 megapixels film also excels in

57
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:30,159
shutter LAG increased control over exposure levels improved color

58
00:03:28,519 --> 00:03:33,720
saturation accuracy Quality and greater Dynamic range lenses

59
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:36,319
and Camera equipment for film cameras are also considerably

60
00:03:35,799 --> 00:03:41,080
cheaper in comparison to their digital counterparts making entry much

61
00:03:39,799 --> 00:03:44,400
more affordable so while digital video and photography have

62
00:03:43,239 --> 00:03:48,280
taken quite a toll on film It's still clings to life with

63
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:52,000
many analog pur and even social media photographers using

64
00:03:50,159 --> 00:03:54,640
It exclusively asram has over 11.5

65
00:03:53,760 --> 00:04:00,239
million photos tagged with #film #film isn Dead and

66
00:03:58,799 --> 00:04:02,879
35 so for now film is still alive But I

67
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:06,599
