Re: [Frameworks] Films made on 15/70mm

Thanks for all the messages on here everyone. Unfortunately the theater here in town won't be able to do it, due to both the fact that IMAX Corp owns the projector (and the theater doesn't want to clean out emulsion bits, etc from the machine), and due to time constraints with the changeover, even

Hello: I have numerous non working Eiki (not slot load) and Bell and Howell projectors to donate. None work but all have minor problems easily fixable. Anyone who is seriously interested can contact me. Happy to refer you to someone in the SF Bay area who can repair them. You must pick up in SF

Re: [Frameworks] Did Kodak almost stop making all film?

I've always wondered just how movie film is made. I remember a letter on this site about a year ago where someone suggested building a smaller machine. Can anyone recomend a site that explains the process? Respectfully, F. Smith On 7/31/2014 2:49 PM, Sean Weitzel wrote: The reason Kodak is so

Re: [Frameworks] Did Kodak almost stop making all film?

This is what I understand to have just happened. Kodak still relies on huge corporate clients to support the continued production of film. Apparently, they essentially told the major studios they needed a certain (fairly massive) film stock commitment to even bother making it through the end of t

Re: [Frameworks] Did Kodak almost stop making all film?

The reason Kodak is so challenged to continue making film, is the simple fact of the manufacturing process. Kodak has only manufactured film on a massive scale. They don't have the means to produce small or boutique runs of various stocks. (Side note: Did anyone see that Kodak had some of their idl

I was told recently by a tele-cine operator at iDailies in London, which is digitising all the 35mm test rolls for the new Star Wars movie, that Kodak are continuing to make some stocks until at least 2017 as several studios want to go back to shooting on film. Nicky. -Original Me

Re: [Frameworks] technical question about modifying the shutter operation of an EIKI 16mm film projector

I don't think it would be a matter of modifying it but completely redesigning it. You might want to look inside a Bolex camera to see an example of how a variable shutter works. The Bolex has two sets of shutter leaves and a gadget that pulls them apart as a ring is moved forward and back on t
