Hi Petit,
You have it right. The term cross processing usually refers to the development of
transparency film in C-41 negative chemistry. The result is an unusual pallete, where
red moves toward yellow, green toward red, and other interesting color switches. I
don't usually like the result for lancscape or portrait type photography, but it can
be quite interesting when used with inanimate objects. I once shot some aluminum and
steel machine parts that were enveloped in flame on Velvia and cross processed it. The
result was nice: teal-colored metal and yellow flames. In any case, it's a lot of fun
to experiment with.

Subject: Cross-dressing (oops processing)
I am going to ask a silly question. Could someone
please explain cross-processing to me. I sorta had an
idea that you use slide film and process as negatives.
But how would this work, or am I completely on the
wrong track?
I am sure I used to know this once, but my brain has a
trapdoor and shoves out lots of stuff.
