RE: digital negative possibilities for gum

You hit it on target with Photosop. My idea of adding noise was to play with RGB separatrions so each channel has a different noise pattern. I am goin to try the bitmaps after I split the channels into RGB.

Hi all, I used diginegs with silver emulsion some years ago to get grain into images that were originally shot on 25ASA film - kinda roundabout way of getting what I wanted (why didn't I shoot in 3200 to start with?) but a useful experiment. The prints were, in fact, very successful and the beginning of my experimentation with diginegs. I didn't use bitmaps, though, I used a monochrome RGB image and added film grain with the filters option in Photoshop. There are certainly hundreds of ways to skin a cat with Photoshop.

I find this grain idea in gum very interesting. I have been thinking of it for a while as well. I like a grainy or almost pointilistic look of some of the prints where I have mutilated each of the tricolor layer separately, where the image is made of irregular spotrs of primary colors. I have been trying to introduce grain into RGB separation via the grain commands. I have just played with it, not made any negatives as yet. I am looking for it to produce more brilliant colors.


Marek,

I know what you are getting at—I have some color prints that were made from enlarging an area of a color negative and I really do like the effect of the dots of various color that make up the image.



Best Wishes,
