Workshop Visit at FILMOMAT & BOBACH

In today’s episode, I follow up with Lukas Fritz, the founder of Filmomat (https://www.filmomat.eu), and my good friend Jules, who founded BOBACH (https://www.bobach.org) in the meantime.

We had featured the FILMOMAT a while ago when it was still a side project of Lukas while doing his PhD in chemistry. Since then a lot has changed - not just in terms of how the FILMOMAT works but also which other products are in the company’s portfolio by now. I sat down for an interview with Lukas to get a better understanding where FILMOMAT currently stands and what is coming up.

Jules met Lukas in the course of our production back then and the two immediately took it off. Jules is a model builder by training but picked up all sorts of skills in the course of his career and by constantly following his interests on the side. He turned this unique set of talent and interests into a company of its own: BOBACH. The company manufactures film photography and camera accessories which are machined from high-quality materials and refined to the highest standards. Jules always sets out to create products that are actually needed in the film community and typically solves problems he encountered himself.

For instance, he created high-quality masks for the famous Fuji Frontier SP3000 scanners that increase the scan area and allow professional labs and ambitious amateurs to quickly switch between different formats while retaining the same basic mask setup. While the original masks are increasingly hard to get and become ever more expensive, these mask sets not only improve on the original but are also widely available. This extends the longevity of successful products such as the Frontier.
