I'm looking forward to going through this series of videos, thanks for making them! I liked the overall look of the green filter example best. I like how you use cyanotypes. I like them very much and I like how they are relatively inexpensive, too, being based on iron, not silver (or platinum!).
Also, about cutting film, I had some 8x10 that I cut to 5x7 and that left me with strips of 1" film that I made work with a 35mm camera and found that I could enlarge it to 5x7 with plenty of detail, without getting all grainy like I was thinking it would. I suspect I could go a lot larger but haven't tried yet. No darkroom presently. I once had some tech pan in 35mm and found 11x14 to be possible if everything worked out well. Point is, don't neglect the 35mm cameras with the off-cuts, even if you have to load/unload in the darkroom and only get 5 frames. Also, be a little careful winding the film, Xray's on a much thicker plastic base.
