Film soup
Prompt: This is the final project for our class. It's an open piece as long as celluloid film and/or analog photographic processes are incorporated into our process / final outcome.
When I got the processed film back from the lab for my graduation trip with my friends to Tsingtao, I found out these neon-colored waves in my images. At first, I didn’t know what that was, and I saw the information about film soup, and I remembered that the matcha pudding in my bag spoiled and leaked into my film during the trip. Therefore, I thought this might be an unintended film soup experiment, and I want to bring that uncertainty into my final and use the film soup technique.
