ABOUT US

---

half-lit zine is a space for film photography.
We are a submission based publication & community landing.

The goal is to bring together a community of film-photographers to create a physical publication.

We extend submissions to anyone who uses film or analog processes to create photographs.
All accepted submissions will be published in a collaborative ‘zine’.

zine - noun
a noncommercial often homemade or online publication usually devoted to specialized and often unconventional subject matter

Each accepted submission receives a free copy of that zine.

Stop the scroll, flip a page, and slow down in your process of making.

WHY FILM?

Film is a tangible substrate in which light is recorded through a chemical process as film is exposed.
In order to solidify the image on the substrate, chemical intervention must occcur.
Develop, Stop, Fix.
We then have the image permanently fixed to the film substrate.
The wonder, uncertainty, and experimentation that occurs with film is unmatched.
