If there is a chance that you'll need to scan these later, it would
probably be much easier/cheaper to just shoot this project with
35mm
film - the sequence is already built-in.
If the final image size is not too large, 35mm may hold enough
detail....
I am fixing to start a project where I am going to photograph a
fence row in 4x5 format from left to right and then either make a
book or a long digital print or something where the pictures are
in
order from left to right, like a panorama. But I am wondering
how I
am going to keep track of the order. When I remove the film from
the holders, I put it in a sleeve and label it and everything, but
then when I'm processing, the sheets get mixed up. Usually I
write
a note of some kind like "Jerry in front of shed" to keep them
straight, but in this case, all the scenes will be a lot alike,
and
it won't do to make notes like, "fence post, poison ivy, redbud
tree," because so many of them will be like that.
My partner suggested taking a sharpie pen and writing a tiny
number
in the outside of the image area while loading or unloading the
film. That seems like it might work. Another idea I had was to
shoot
the whole thing with a digital point and shoot, thereby creating a
record in order. The digital camera numbers pictures, obviously.
Or using a 35mm film camera so that I can look at a contact sheet
and know what order the images go in.
Any further suggestions?
