[Frameworks] The Super 8 film format is back with a vengence!

The Super 8 film format is back with a vengence! Fantastic new Super 8 test film footage shot by German filmmaker Friedemann Wachsmuth with the first new Super 8 camera in 30+ years ! Unbelievably sharp registration for such a tiny medium. I kept staring at the corners seeking weave. I believe

I am not a particular fan of Canon Scoopics, especially the earlier gray one (which had a terrible lens compared to the later black Scoopic 16MS). But I had one to sell. Mark LaPore wanted to buy it, and I did my best to talk him out of it, but he finally convinced me that for him it was a

2014-02-21 Thread chris
Hi Caryn, $800 is a bit high on one hand, but also seems fair for adapting another artists/writers work to your film and for all the rights they are granting you.. you even have broadcast rights, which is a rarity! Maybe you think broadcast's a moot point, but at least it opens things up so that

The soundtrack to James Benning's film Deseret consists entirely of some one reading NY Times articles aloud. I'm willing to bet he did not pay for the rights nor has been bothered by the NY Times about it. I say go for it. On Fri, Feb 21, 2014 at 11:29 AM, ch...@signaltoground.com wrote:

Hi Roger, There are probably some deals to be had on eBay, or via a CML mailing list inquiry. CML unearths some surprising deals on older analog gear from folks who are eager to turn in the old for the new. Dwight Cody sells editing supplies, and I believe he stocks splicers. If you want

Thanks Isaac! Yeah I did a search online and saw a few on ebay but the prices are a little too high for me. I had a nice catozzo but I had it stolen at a public event.:(. I have two great 35mm splicer and would consider trading one for a nice 16mm. Roger D. WilsonFilm Scientist613 324 -

Hey guys, does anyone have any leads on 16mm telecine options that aren't fotokem? The place I used to go got rid of all their 16mm gear! and I had a real good hookup there that makes the $250/hr fee at fotokem hurt! preferably in LA ___ FrameWorks

Hi Mariah, It's been awhile since I have compared their rates, but Cineliscious is in LA, and they are more than film friendly. Wide variety of services in transferring film, last time I checked. Supervised sessions may still be slightly steep, there but they do top shelf work and are very small

What kind of telecine do you want? There are a lot of people who will do old-style video transfers at very reasonable prices. I can recommend Guy Spiller (www.guyspiller.com) who has a Marconi line-scanning telecine. Still, if you get an old-style video transfer you're stuck with interlace
