How to make a contact sheet

1. The first thing my partner and I did was cut the negatives into strips of six.
2. We then placed the strips onto the light box to ensure each strip looked as we intended it to. 
3. After that we placed each strip into a separate section in a 'neg bag'. 
4. Then we made a test strip. These are he steps we took to making the test strip: 
    A: Set Aperture to F:8
    B: Make sure no filters.
    C: Placed photo paper glossy side up.
    D: Placed negative glossy side up.
    E: Placed glass on top.
    F: Exposed to light in 1 sec intervals using black paper.
Official exposing time: 0.5 seconds.
