I’m working on a digital project, and I want to project my old film (35mm) on a wall similar to projector photo shoots. Does anyone have ideas as to how I could project it without an actual projector? I tried my phone flashlight, but it doesn’t work very well.

    Why don’t you want to use a projector? They’re literally designed to do what you want, what with the high-intensity lamp, lens, and convenient film transport mechanism. Plus you can get em cheap.

    I’m working with a 35mm negatives & this is for a project that is due soon. I don’t have to do this idea for the project, I was just seeing if I could project the film without having to buy additional things

      Negatives? You understand that they’ll be projected as negatives, right? Orange messes that nobody can comprehend?

      You need to get them comverted to positives, or shoot with slide film if you want to project them.

    You can’t just blast light through a slide and get an image, you need a lens to focus it. It’d be like trying to take a photo without a lens on your camera.
