A starters guide to home brewing light sensitive emulsion that's suitable to use on 16mm clear (transparent) film. The starting point is the home brewing of a basic silver emulsion based on gelatin, potassium bromide and silver nitrate. To be able to resurrect the art, science, and craft of silver gelatin emulsions we need to experiment freely and share openly. It signifies a hope and commitment to making sure these techniques, tricks and handy tips remain openly available to all who might need them.
