Hand painted film experiment reflection

As part of exploring more techniques within film, I have experimented with 8mm film using art techniques. This including the use of ink, pen markers, pencils, pins, etc. to create various types of effects onto the film. I found the experience highly interesting, as I have always had an interest in film overlays and grainy effects, therefore creating this myself was insightful and is something I am considering to use in future moving image projects. I also hope to use this technique in photography form, creating still images out of film or using it as an overlay over other photographs. I would use text, ink and any piece of equipment that creates a scratched effect again, as I feel this gave the most artistic, interesting result. The speed of projection also created an interesting, notable effect. One thing I have also learnt that was not as clear beforehand is the idea of frames per second, which was 18 frames per second, with 50-50 frames within the given film.
