I have always had a vague idea about the film manufacturing process--but nothing "here is how it is done."

These three videos clear that all up! Take an in-depth tour of Kodak's Rochester film plant, which also makes film for Fuji... :unsure:

Part I


Part II


Part III

 
My brother use to work for Kodak when he was going to school many moons ago. Figure that, I'm going to school for photography and he gets a job at Kodak ? Anyway, he use to tell me about the Pork Fat that use to come in by train from North Carolina dailyThey use the Pork fat to make the Gelatin. That's why they call it Silver Gelatin Prints... Maybe Digital is not so bad after all...
