Wildwood Deep for a Dark & Moody Feel

Moody film recipe for X-Trans 4, using underexposure and Eterna Bleach Bypass

Wildwood Deep

I’m a big fan of Alice Tatham and her excellent Instagram page, posting under the name ‘thewildwoodmoth’. Her style has a soft faded tone, with desaturated greens and a deep tone. Inspired by this, I’ve set out to make a Fujifilm film recipe that has some of these same features.

Meet the Wildwood Deep film recipe, with a muted green tone, and lots of moody depth. It’s based on the washed out softness of Eterna Bleach Bypass, with a retro tint to warm green. It doesn’t capture all the amazing tone and colour of Alice’s work of course, but it’s sort of in the same ballpark as far as the greens are concerned.

To get the best deep mood from this film recipe, it’s good to underexpose the shots, so aim for around -2/3 compensation. It’s going to give a darker tone this way, and be nearer to the look I’ve tried to achieve.

Good subjects will include flowers, forests, pastoral scenes and aged wood or beachcombing finds. Have fun finding out!

Hipsta Ray Mark II in a Creamy Retro Style

A Hipstamatic inspired Fujifilm recipe for X-Trans IV with Eterna Bleach Bypass

Hipstamatic Ray Mk II

For several years, I was an avid user of Hipstamatic on iPhone. In the boom years, the arrival of new ‘paks’ was a moment of collective excitement. Learning how to use the retro inspired options to produce different styles was a community effort, and there were thousands of people sharing the results and bouncing ideas off of eachother.

The app is still going strong around a decade later, with a dedicated user base and mind boggling number of paks and features. For me though, those early days were the best.

I gave some thought to which of those Hipstamatic looks I might be able to reproduce in a film recipe. Most are impossible, but one that can be approximated is Ray Mark II with it’s warm, almost sepia tones and desaturated look. Here is my take on it.

Summer Bleach film recipe for Faded Warmth

Fujifilm Eterna Bleach Bypass recipe for X-Trans IV cameras

Summer Bleach

The Eterna Bleach Bypass film simulation is something of a Marmite setting, and I am definitely on the ‘love it’ side of the argument. I have a long history shooting with iPhone and the Hipstamatic app, and I love the washed out bleached styles that creates. I’m also a bit of a fan of the Fallout 4 colour palette, that the bypass sim produces.

Summer Bleach is a warm film recipe, building upon the green brown aesthetic of the simulation. It uses a 7000K colour temperature, with faded tones style from reduced highlights, shadows and saturation. Shoot this one as metered, or with a -1/3 compensation.
