| Setting up in the processing room |
Developing the film is quite different to working with the 35mm film as everything happens in a light tight room and if something goes wrong you have to solve it while in the room (or take all your negatives off the frames and load them back into a light tight bag, leave the room and solve the issue then reload the negatives back onto the frames - yes this happened to me)
Before we could go in to develop we had to warm the developer up as it was too cold to use, this took a while but eventually we got the temperature up to 20 degrees and were able to go into the room.

| Developing times due to temperature |
Me and a friend both went into develop our films together and we found that we work well as a team in the process: I struggle with loading the film onto the frames but have no problem doing the developing process.
We started by only developing one negative each to test the developing time as it was quite used developer, we estimated that we should develop for around 10 mins instead of 7 mins and this worked great as the negative came out well contrasted.
We then developed the rest and should be printing contact sheets soon so I will uploading them soon.
