Author's note

Negative Film is a free film-themed symbol font filled with frames, sprocket strips, splatters, and distressed photographic borders. Its marks range from clean rectangular negatives to rough, ink-heavy shapes that resemble damaged prints. The uneven edges give the collection a lively cut-and-paste quality.

Used as an instant darkroom motif, the symbols can turn poster titles, album packaging, and event graphics into pieces of photographic ephemera. Several frames can hold photos or illustrations, and the splattered pieces can break up editorial pages. The marks can become part of the image itself as borders, contact-sheet fragments, or rough printed stamps.
