meet the collective

Hi, we’re Ken and Jerry—kind of like the ice cream guys, but way cooler. The Celluloid Collective was just an idea we kicked around for years, always talking about how we could start a film community with one simple mission: to preserve and celebrate the artistry of film in every form—be it still photography, motion picture photography, or the magic of the darkroom!

Our number one goal? Make film as a medium affordable and accessible. We want to demystify the stereotypes about shooting film—you know, the “it’s expensive”, “it’s hard”, ”its not accessible anymore” blah blah blah. We knew that shooting on film didn’t have to break the bank, and if we wanted to make that happen, we had to do it ourselves. We’re here to bring film stocks back from the dead and educate new an experienced film lovers in a multitude of ways to get more people shooting on film! We think we have something for everyone, and if we don’t let us know, we will do our best to bring it to you.

Sincerely,

Kenny & Jerry

oUR FILM STOCK

We pride ourselves on offering a diverse selection of film stocks, including motion picture film and rare, expired vintage film stock. Our film is hand-rolled into recycled canisters to help reduce waste. We search high and low for long-lost film stocks and make them available to you at an affordable price because we think shooting on film shouldn't be expensive.

darkroom classes

Want to dive into the magic of the darkroom and see your film come to life? Join our darkroom classes. We teamed up with 818 Community Darkroom in LA to offer you a fun, hands-on experience with our very own co-founder, Jerry, as your instructor. And guess what? We’re working our magic to bring classes to New York soon!
