Nate Downes Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMVOBhXo830 For the movie project I've been sinking now a lot of tears in. We decided after the last investor negotiations fell apart to produce a pitch trailer, similar to how the Cohen bros. did. Originally going to use 35, but my DeVry's jammed up. Then 16 was too expensive per-foot on the short notice, so finallly settled on Super8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 I get a message saying, "video is no longer available." Are you seriously going to shoot a feature on Super 8? A feature you hope to sell and make money from? Hmmmmmmm, not so sure about that plan. Even though I'm a film guy, I think I would shoot HDV for a feature, before Super 8. I mean what about audio and load lengths? I've never seen a blimped synch sound Super 8 film camera that can hold 400ft of film. Maybe they are out there, I dunno? If the Super 8 is part of the "style" of the movie it might work, but the concept would have to be incredibly good. R, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Buick Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 It's a shame I wasn't in time to see it. I love watching Super 8, it gives me a warm feeling you just can't get with any other format. I would recommend you get the camera modified to Super 8-B. The 13% increase in quality will certainly make a difference. You should also use a camera likke an Elmo Super 110R, the tighther shutter and premium quality lens will also help you squeeze every last drop out of that tichy tiny frame. P.S: How's One Night coming on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
