And if you need a little crowdfunding money, Kodak has a little bonus for you. For qualifying projects on Kickstarter, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2016\/4\/25\/11503000\/kickstarter-kodak-partner-free-35mm-16mm-film\">Kodak will match 20% of your fundraising in 35mm film stock<\/a>. It&#8217;s unclear how Kodak vets the project \u2013 we imagine access to a 35mm camera is a requirement \u2013 but this is a great offer for anyone considering taking a stab at the format who may have been worried about acquiring physical film.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/aulibmedia.blogspot.com\/2014\/08\/famous-directors-throw-money-to-stall.html\">Unless you&#8217;re Quentin Tarantino<\/a>, it can be difficult or expensive to get a whole bunch of film stock.
