I know, I know, I’ve been a very bad blogger. It has been quite the while since my last post… Months you might say. I have spent the majority of my hiatus adjusting to actually making a living off my photography. Not easy to do, especially with recent events. In addition to adjusting to a whole new life style I have been spending my time learning and perfecting some cool new processes. That brings us to the subject of this blog. Gelatin.. It can be tasty.. It can be fun to throw at unsuspecting passers by.. But it is also amazing at facilitating the transfer of images onto numerous substrates. My favorite substrate to transfer onto are wood panels. It makes for an impressive, unique, and final presentation solution. There is so much you can with the wood to, prior to making the transfer. That, however, will be the subject of another blog. What I have done (as sort of a mia culpa) is to make a short video showing the process I do from beginning to end.. Well almost the end.. I do have to keep some things secret! As a side note, the Flip Video camera and iMovie make one hell of a team. I hope you enjoy!





Really cool man, I’ve got to check your stuff out at union square one of these days.
this is just a great post, thanks for sharing. One question from a novice. Whats the best acetate to print on? Is there a particular printer that works best? Thanks again for sharing.
do you let the gelatin dry before applying the acetate image on?
what solvent do you use to separate the image from the acetate?
what kind of acetate do you use to print on?
How did you get the image onto the acetate in the first place? Is that an inkjet transparency?
