Make your next film on film!

Deciding on film stock, tracking it down and getting it affordably can be hard. Provide us with the vision for your project and we can get you a personalized film stock to achieve your dream look. From vintage to brand new and chilled, different stocks yield different looks.

Whether your project is DIY or professional, Saint Y can provide an adequate camera package to get the look you desire. With our battery operated Arrflex 16s a professional film look can be acquired, with attachments to run 400ft spools. Also in our arsenal is an array of spring wound Bell & Howells.

After the shoot starts the magical chemical process of developing your film. The process we take is dependent upon the look and film stock for each project. Avenues fo hand processing or machine processing can be used depending upon the look of the film. Both yield stunning results.

Now that the film has gone through a chemical bath, it's time to take your creation digital for sharing & editing. Don’t worry, after processing your film is sure to stand out visually from anything else out there even back on digital. With fine grain and amazing contrast, little color work is needed after the fact to start sharing your creation. This process is able to be done right here in Chicago thanks to friends of Saint Y.
