![]() ![]() Day after day, lots of iterations of tweaks and tests across various subjects. It is just a very tedious and boring process in fact. Oliver: There’s no big secret in how RNI film simulations are made. With this work, we’d like to preserve its look in the form of a digital tool and to the best extent that can be achieved by profiling images captured in the visible spectrum. It was rendering the vegetation in a kind of surreal crimson and pink colors, making people and man-made structures more visible in the surrounding vegetation. Created mainly for military and surveillance purposes, Aerochrome was sensitive to both visible and infrared spectrums. And a few looks a probably coming from some mysterious infrared movie film used by Richard Mosse on one of his trips to Congo.Īerochrome was quite a remarkable color film, a fascinating artifact of the cold war era, now sadly discontinued. In terms of the origins – most of these new profiles are inspired by various versions of Kodak Aerochrome. Right now, when I’m writing this, it’s just a folder of color profiles on our network drive, which are being constantly tested and tweaked. Oliver: First things first – we still don’t know if it’s going to be an addition to RNI Films or a separate niche product. What film emulsions have you folks been studying for this? And can you tell us what simulations customers can possibly expect? Phoblographer: So, you’ve been working on the latest styles for RNI films, which will bring the infrared film looks. So, we talked to Oliver on the company’s support team to discuss how this is all happening. They use a lot of science, studying, and time to figure out how to make just the right tweaks to images. If you’ve been looking to find a way to get this look with ease, RNI films is arguably the best company to do so. Granted, Aerochrome has been long gone for years, but photographers still pick it up on eBay or have some that’s frozen in their fridge. A film like this is pretty difficult to duplicate because of what it does–like turning greens into a red, purple, or pink. But, RNI Films is working on a project to bring those to life. But, photographers have wanted it digitally for a while, which hasn’t been easy to create, and in fact, it still isn’t. ![]() It spawned things like the creation of Lomochrome Purple and a few other emulsions. Photographers have been enamored with the look of Infrared films like Kodak Aerochrome. We got an exclusive look at the next big project from RNI Films: Infrared Film Simulation Presets. ![]()
