Response to Cross-procesing color film

from George Papantoniou (papanton@hol.gr)
If you want to do it with film for colour prints, then you will have to put it through a reversal process (E-6). I don't have experience with the particular films, but in general when doing that you will have to overexpose your film by 3-4 stops and push-develop it by a couple of stops also. Otherwise it comes out really dense and useless. If you get the exposure and processing right, the logical effect will be really low contrast (no black) pictures with a strong colour shift (towards blue-green, usually). My advice: do a lot of bracketing (at least until you establish a correct combination of exposure and processing) and experiment with high contrast subjects.
