How does one make a screened negative? I have tried to find halftone
screens at graphic supply companies but keep getting the answer that no
one uses screens any more because "everything" is now done via computer.
I also tried getting Kodak autoscreen film but was told by at least one
major Kodak distributor that it had not been made for the last ten years
(despite what some recent alt photo manuals has said, but that's another
story). Does anyone know where halftone screens can be purchased and is
is worth doing?
