In this episode I chat with Pedro, the founder of Cinemot film. We talk about starting Maquinas de Outros Tempos (machines out of time) as a vintage gear shop in Porto, Portugal. An initial idea to help pay university bills has grown into a family-owned business providing analogue goods and services to Porto and beyond. We talk about some of the challenges with starting and running a small business and tease some potential offerings for the future.

In this episode, I chat with Jess Jones about pull-apart film, cyanotypes and printing our work. We talked about how we sometimes move on from our hobbies, the ups and downs of monetizing our creative output and about style. We talk about the film community whatever that means. We also covered photowalks, how travel and music may inspire our work and how creative gives us an outlet but also feeds back into us.

In this episode I had a great time talking with my friend Roxanna Angles about her perspectives on creativity and its impact on our lives. During COVID, Roxanne put together a book about mindfulness and photography based on her experiences in leading a film photography club at schools she has worked at as a counselor. She talks about her observations on how photography impacts young lives at an awkward time along with how it helps feed her own soul. Roxanna is @roxannalog on IG and Lomography.

To kick off this series, I was honored to be joined by Tiffany Goolsby who I initially became familiar with through the vibrant images she submits to the Frugal Film Project every month. We talked about how she became interested in photography, then her interest in film specifically. We talked about the benefits of using the same kit over a period of time, what she enjoys about photography, and a little about what engaging in photography adds to her life experience. I hope you enjoy this initial installment and please do check out Tiffany's work.

Clare returns for an episode about David Lynch's 1986 noir thriller Blue Velvet. She's joined by Billy Sanford and they discuss the movie, characters and themes from the film. They also touch on some of David Lynch's other work and discuss the state of independent filmmaking in contrast to big budget Hollywood blockbusters. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Velvet_(film) Clare Marie Bailey: Website - https://www.claremariebailey.com/ Instagram - @claremariebailey Billy Sanford: Instagram - @bsanfordjr Music ‘Motorway’ by Mirror Gaze https://sivilised.bandcamp.com/track/motorway http://sivilised.com/mirror-gaze/

In this episode of the @onlyfilmsproject podcast, Mandy (@mandyleft) chats with Bettina (@ysa.gb) as they work on prints at Aire Street Darkroom (@airestreetdarkroom). Bettina is a film photographer from Manchester who Mandy met on a @northwestfilmphoto walk. They talk about Bettina’s early influences on film, camera preferences, using portraiture to change our personalities in approaching people, zines, and exhibitions. They also discussed their thoughts on fresh perspectives of familiar surroundings, femininity in photography, inspiration for subjects and subject matter and how Instagram has changed over the last few years. Finally they share a Film Failure Story (FFS) that many will be able to relate to as well as touching on digital photography.
