Analog systems behave differently than digital systems, but they're not any harder, it's just some different shit.
The basic principles are the same, you just have to take into account that you're physically causing a chemical reaction instead of just booping some electrical sensors, so there's practical differences.
For example, one of the main ones is exposure latitude. What's it take to fuck up the exposure? Well, with digital, overexposure is the big problem, those electrical sensors peak out at a certain point and that's that. Film is sort of the opposite, it's major enemy is underexposure. If there's not enough energy from the captured photons to cause enough reaction, then you end up with under-reacted shit, and that's that.
tl;dr, there's nothing to it, if you're shooting digital err on the side of under, if you're shooting film err on the side of over.
Then as long as you can put your focal plane where you want it, you're good to go.
