**Exposure** a film by Peter Collis

### technical

#### process summary

35mm photographic still & cine documentation of the site was re-worked on computer image manipulation software (Aura & Photoshop), mixing marks and images scratched directly onto raw film celluloid. The results were re-photographed on a reclaimed & rebuilt 35mm optical printer/rostrum camera.

Audio fragments & music were recorded separately on computer & DAT and mixed into a soundtrack on computer & overlaid onto DigiBeta.
