Can you describe these “influencers “? I’ve never met one and it seems nobody here is one.
Generally speaking, you are right.They're younger YouTubers that other young people follow religiously and look up to.
Nothing wrong at all with any of these folks, I'm just familiar with the kind of photography they do and the kind of gear they use and make videos about, so anything past 35mm was very quickly ruled out for me.
Sorry… doesn’t seem complete. I primarily use color film and don’t influence a thing or anyone. At all. There must be more, like under 30, unemployed and making money by making social media posts/videos, freeloaders always asking for handouts, comps, and free stuff, etc. I’m really perplexed by this “influencer “ thing. Who cares what they say? Who’s really being influenced?
The Naked Photographer is great. Did he get a postcard from Harman?Generally speaking, you are right.
But there are older YouTubers that have a specialized following, and sort of fit the definition.
Our Andrew O'Neill fits within that definition.
As does the "Naked Photographer".
More generally, they are people who are end-users, who people look to as much or more than people actually in the industry.

Well I guess I showed my hyper-skeptical side. A neighbor kid considers herself to be a social media influencer and I’ve seen her record a couple of videos. She’s young and beautiful yet has nothing to say. What she shows will definitely get views, though. I have no idea what she’s influencing. Right now she says she’s making a good living but soon her body will change and I suspect she’ll become just another single welfare mom. She’s nice but has no skills other than her looks. It’s sad.
Simply using color film won’t make you an influencer/youtuber/social media profile. You have to actually produce some social media content that appeals to enough people to get you a following. Have you ever tried influencing someone?
What’s wrong with being under 30? I wish I was.
I have actually looked at some of the stuff produced by the afforementioned people. Some of them do the youtube thing as a hobby. Some are professional photographers that use social media as a platform, some are professional, self employed youtubers. I’d imagine they all pay their taxes (I could be wrong of course, they are under 30 after all) and contribute to whatever society they call home. They do provide a sort of service that has gained enough popularity to make it interesting for companies to promote their products through it.
Calling them freeloaders is hardly fair. In fact, if it wasn’t for the 18-30 crowd, social media, and the afforementioned youtubers, film would still be on a rapid decline towards a permanent death. Unless that’s your end goal you should probably thank those people rather than bash them.
My guess is the relaunch of Ilformar in 6 grades and three textures.
See post 828. We were typing simultaneously.
I’ve spent my entire adult life practicing “influence leadership”… demonstrating talents and traits that professional colleagues and my kids should embrace. But never on the internet. And there’s absolutely nothing wrong with being under 30.
I watch a couple if different genres on influencers on YouTube. A few actually have useful content and have decent production value to their videos. The vast majority, though, I end up scrubbing through or exiting within the first minute.

So it's film. How does the Phoenix then fit into the picture?

Other than the self-satisfaction of her teen and old codger viewers, perhaps. Right now she says she’s making a good living but soon her body will change and I suspect she’ll become just another single welfare mom. She’s nice but has no skills other than her looks. And she’s well aware of that. It’s sad.
Do they still have the machines, or have those been sold/scrapped?Well, now that someone has said it, I'm finally inspired to post in this ridiculous thread.
Keith Swan moved his lab (Swan Photo Labs, which is the real entity behind his marketing initiatives "The Darkroom" and "Ilford Lab US / Harman Lab US") to San Clemente from northern California in 1993, 15 years after I moved here. There's no way anything like an original, central Kodachrome processing facility could ever exist at Swan. There were, however, K-Labs, small self-contained Kodachrome processing units, near the end of that film's existence:
It's conceivable, but extraordinarily unlikely, that one of those, or something like them, might be brought on line at Swan. If that were the case, and HARMAN coated compatible film, and people with a lot more money than smarts surfaced to purchase what would be an outrageously expensive product/service, the absurd speculation here might have a chance of proving accurate. However, I probably have an equal probability of winning a Powerball jackpot, and I don't buy tickets.
freeloaders always asking for handouts, comps, and free stuff, etc.
soon her body will change and I suspect she’ll become just another single welfare mom. She’s nice but has no skills other than her looks.
The picture also reminded of a paper or film tank on a roller stand.It's obviously going to be new Cibachrome. The new image is clearly a developing tank on a motor base. Like the ones they used to make for Cibachrome.
Those aren't very nice things to say, if I'm honest.
I hope we don't continue down this road when it comes to addressing lines of work or walks of life that are alien or new to us.

that would have been beofre filmotec was "Reorganized" One source did speculate that it one time filmotec was using several suppliers to coat their film, from an emuslion kit designed by filmotec.... Of course now they have been forcibly merged with inovisicoateInteresting find!
Just been doing a bit of browsing and looking at the Filmotec website,
