The continuing saga of Film Ferrania continues, with
Making
the Rewards - Part 3. After many months, the Big Chiller and Little
Chiller are installed, new fencing around the factory perimeter is installed
and a power transformer with line conditioner is also installed. These are all
the remaining touches to the next step of inspection by the Italian government.
The project did not reveal when it might start production of transparency film
yet, but one can only suspect that that will be next.
Many a Kickstarter project has been felled by fewer problems, so there
is still risk. While the initial Kickstarter rewards were first released
in January, no film has been produced yet. If the founders stay strong,
one can expect production to start as soon as possible. Hopefully, Film
Ferrania will put Italy back on the map for producing silver gelatin
film.
