I decided to make a fresh blog about it because we need to discuss how were going to solve this problem.
(for those that dont know, if a film is x-rayed at best it damaged the film and at worst destroys it).
I just got off the phone with the Royal mail help line and we've run into a bit of a problem.
For posting film to the USA the person says 99% of the time they x-ray whats coming into the country.
But on a slightly more postitive note Canada is alot less likely to be paranoid and the royal mail only x rays stuff if they think it needs doing.
The long and short of it is that were doing it at our own risk.
Personally I want the project to go forward but its just a case of figuring out how to get around it, first of all I think there should be only one international camera (now that we know the risk involved), the second thing is that the international camera will have to start in the USA and then leave the country.
Everyone involed who's outside of the USA needs to go check with their post office to find out the likelyhood of it being x-rayed.
