This is the exact combination of film, depression and memes I look for in a video.

This feels like a fever dream in the best way possible.

This video caused me to start meth because large format is too expensive

Without a doubt, the best thing I've ever watched.

why not 8 minutes and 10 seconds, seems like a missed opportunity

Loved the Cameo! 😉Also, I can honestly say you very much encapsulated the experience of shooting 8x10 too. 👍

Slowly repeating to myself “I will not look at large format cameras on eBay, I will not look at large format cameras on KZfaq, I will not”

I like to think this is what the greats like Alec Soth and Joel Sternfeld think of when shooting 8x10.

Booo.... I was there and I still got chills... and a semi...

Amazing to find out that you’re not actually Walmart Ryan Gosling, but rather Costco Terrance Malick

This makes my medium format into the LARGE format

Bro shot this like a documentary YES man

“wtf is he looking at” 😂😂

That “click, black out” was brilliant. The whole video was brilliant.

The monster glistening in the light was so beautiful it moved me to tears , nature is so amazing

Extract from my dissertation about this video: Jason's video journey into exploring the mysteries of large format photography reveals the fundamental irony that is the subtext of the genre. It seemingly inherently evokes a sense of mystical wonderment, capturing light in a way that is uncanny to our everyday sensibilities. Yet this spiritual journey undertaken by Jason must be mitigated through supremely physical means. The very thing that leads him on this spiritual sojourn is an increasing dependence on the crass materiality of the medium. This is seen in the moment of his spiritual escape, only to be dragged back to this mortal coil by the very thing that granted him release. This Cartesian duality feeds into the sense of the liminal unreality that hallmarks the video.

Okay, I know this is a parody and I should post something sarcastic but I CRIED literal salt tears because from an outsiders perspective you have such a SUPPORTIVE partner whom allows you to photograph her and I know I'm supposed to recognize that I only see a small blip of your relationship but damn it hurts because I feel like my photography has been hard for past partners to see as my love language for them. I hope this gets lost amongst the witty comments but I just had to share. Thanks for creating the content you do.

this is it...the only film channel ill ever need

The final image actually made me say awww. Very funny, very sweet.

Finally, somebody makes a film about large format that gets to the emotional heart of the matter, bravo!

So silly and funny until that reveal of the photos at the end, then I was a bit overcome, I admit. Really beautiful portraits of your family.

The only way this would have been better is if all that build up was for an out of focus picture.

Honestly, this is the single greatest video I’ve seen in my life

Beautiful. Awesome.

Honestly, this was a really entertaining video. Well done man and those photos came out beautifully.

8x10 is awesome! Be careful it can hook you up fast.

I appreciate the dedication it took to make this video. I was on the edge the whole time and stunned by the quality of the pic at the end. Thanks for doing this.

You need to get your hands on a Kodak Aero 178mm f2.5 lens. You'll need to pair it with a camera with internal shutter though like a graphlex. If someone can loan him one, please do.

plot twist: He forgot the lens cap on!

You make the only analogue photography videos that make me crease

Kudos to your ever-so-patient models. They had to suffer for your art. The results validate their misery. Great work!

Jason, you have a very, very dear spot in my heart.

the "taking a mug out of a cupboard" slow-mo at 0:55 reminds me so much of Joel Haver 😂

This was beautiful, I laughed my a** off. Yours is by far my favourite photography channel, it's just a perfect mix of humor and film.

Reminded me of Apocalypse Now. The voiceover, the opening bedroom scene, the toilet water. Man, I loved Apocalypse Now.

Fun video. My parent's house is just up the street where I built my 4X5 view camera in my dad's machine shop (college days). That park is where my buddy Greg and I invented Frisbee golf back in 1972. We never got any credit for it though.

This is way moodier than i expected, i love it.

"Kodak Colour Plus 200" 😂😂

The look in her eyes is the realisation that any idea of ever buying a house just got flushed down the drain.

I think I just watched the last 8x10 video that ever needs to be watched! 😂😂😂

You said it man! Nobody fuck$ with LARGE format.

Well done! There are few things more amazing than poring over an 8x10 negative.

I've seen some of your other videos, but this one really earned my subscription!! I honestly laughed out loud. This video is just so perfect! Outstanding!!!

Literally every vid over the past like 3 weeks has been what I was looking into and I’m in love

It’s content like this that makes it one of my favorite KZfaq channels, this is sick dude!

I honestly love this documentary and definitely want more of this ❤️

People who aren't regular viewers are gonna be confused. Great video. PLEASE, continue making ultra confusing content. I want to be confused more.

This is the best photography channel I have seen in a long time. I binged watch all your stuff and had to sub. Love it.

The look on Monica and Baxter’s faces says it all ;-)

This is like the film photographers version of a Baywatch episode. 8x10 in slowmo only. Ssssexxy.

All hail the Ben-Zilla! Music choice and voice is very appropriate Horne worship.

the monster in the coffee mug killed me

The "lose yourself" rhymes were not expected!! Man, you're my idol!!

This is the best life documentary video ive ever seen! So beautiful and extravagant! Keep up with this Large onE!

So this is what it looks like when Jason takes his Ativan. A magical euphoria of large format film and Jason shitting himself.

You are the hero we need in these dark times. Thank you fam.

That burning sensation is not the 8x10, it's the clap.

Awesome. I love shooting 8x10 ... I'm trying to hold off because I know I'll actually go broke buying that film.

All the feels...large format photography gets me every time

Beautiful work Jason! I hope you like what you’re doing and get crazy successful with the channel.

Crazy that this is the best video on the whole of KZfaq

First Exposure . . . Exciting!

Now you are ready for the next level - 8x10 street photography.

Jason, I have to admit that I love your videos, but this is the only one I have watched twice. Good stuff brother!

That was golf like commentary with sarcasm, and I'm here for it.

This should win an award.

Epic, man. Seriously some of your best work!

Jason, hat off man. Very cool. Loved the photos, extra points for the story you strung into this.

Literal perfection in a video. 8x10 sounds like a dream

This was a great watch while eating breakfast to start my day 😂

Bro, you had me dying with this video. It's fantastic, thank you for putting out quality work my man.

Your channel is pure gold! Please never change.

Jokes aside, the images are incredible I almost teared up, beauty of it hit me, I been shooting 35mm for a few months but now Im seriously considering going for medium format, and maybe one day large.

Monster in the coffee mug i HOWLED hahahaha

Nor the tears or zoodles could be stopped from pouring out of me. This was beauty beyond compare.

This will be fun. Looking forward to it!

This is sooo good! “Tf is he looking at” 🤣

I have to say, this video was amazing. Very very well shot and put together. The music was on point too. Fantastic! Much love, from England

Who else is binge watching Jason's vids again and again

You can’t see me but know that I’m standing and clapping. Slowly of course. Well done.

I've seen this video before, but it appeared in my feed again, so I watched again... and now I realise what a piece of videography and storytelling genius it is. Love your channel Jason

Absolutely brilliant

BEAUTIFUL!!

dude this is brilliant makes me want a large format now

Brilliant, thanks man

genuinely incredible work with a healthy dose of comedic value 💛✌️ loved the photo and the size & resolution is insane

dude your videos are getting better and better , cheers

Hahaha, Man you almost me in tears from laughing so hard with that intro. Fcking classic!

We want more! Exciting!

Beautiful documentary.

This is a masterpiece of cinema. 11/10

It’s all worth it for the 3D perspective shift outro

Night photography 8x10!!! Can’t wait to see what you’ll capture.

Absolutely amazing

Welcome to the club! Looking forward to your next episode 👍

Wow. How does this not have more views? I love this

Wow this was just magical! Thanks for this soul journey 🥲

I think this might be the best video on KZfaq

"Just like the faint gust of wind...." Thanks for that laugh...it's been a hard week, and I needed that (the laugh, not the log dump). Great work from two of my favorite creators.

This is pure gold!
