What if I miss your deadline but need to get the film to the lab?
If you miss the 3:30pm deadline you can send it out via UPS ground. Take the package to the mailroom, tell them you need it to go to Cinelab and bill VMA, they have the address in the computer already, and they will print you a label. To ensure that it will go out that day it’s best to go to the UPS store, it is located near the Starbucks on the corner of Boylston and Tremont. The truck leaves there around 5pm.
Where is the mailroom and what are their hours?
The mailroom is in the basement of the Colonial Building 100 Boylston. They are currently open Monday thru Friday from 9am to 5pm.
When the film comes back from Cinelab where does it go?
If you use the forms we have in the EDC, Cinelab will send the film back to the EDC.
Can I use the same Cinelab slip for more than one roll of film?
Yes if it’s all the same type of film one slip is sufficient. If you have two or three different types of film it’s best to fill out a different form for each type.
