Takahiro Nakano Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 It is good! What did the telecine machine use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom doherty Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 looks great, what stock did you use? 200t? speaking of super 8 ads, i saw one with sarah jessica parkers stinking perfume on tv today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan doyle Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 speaking of super 8 ads, i saw one with sarah jessica parkers stinking perfume on tv today. that sarah j parker stinky commercial and in the uk swift cover insurance with iggy pop both have some really rotten looking super 8. not sure what is going wrong. it would be easy to blame bush and cheney,but maybe it is obama's fault. or maybe the productions are just letting directors shoot now. :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan doyle Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 What do yiu think about it? Anny reccomendations for the future? it is good to see sync sound super 8,really nice work. seems to be the usual unsteady cartridges on some shots. did you use a beaulieu and was this a pro 8 film or kodak? .i think you should have played with the grading more. and maybe ultrasonic clean of the film. i wish we could get kodachrome back,dirt on reversal film looks so much nicer than negative. here is my alonso job it was shot on arri d20 and i shot with 3 different super 8s with sections of fogged film. this is a weird and long edit,i do not like it but check it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxDKcZYgFKs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan Irache Posted March 24, 2009 Author Share Posted March 24, 2009 Yes, I used kodak 200t negative and no, I didn't do the ultrasonic clean, it was my fault. Anyway... I like the dirt, even if it looks better on reversal film. The telecine was done in Uppsala (Sweden) and I'm very satisfyed with it. I tryed to digitaly remove the vibrations, but it looked better unsteady. The camera is a Canon autozoom 518, I faked the sound syncro by digitally recording the same sentences before, on stage. Alan, the cinematography in your alonso ad is amazing! But I gotta say something.... That's not his voice! I can't see it without laughing! Thank you for your advices, see you!

Premium Member andy oliver Posted March 24, 2009 Premium Member Share Posted March 24, 2009 ''quote'' i wish we could get kodachrome back,dirt on reversal film looks so much nicer than negative. Wittner still sell recut k40 in the super 8 cart and have stocks of ds-8 k40. I much prefer reversal over neg both in the super 8 and 16mm format, and totally agree with you regarding dirt on film, i find white crap on neg very annoying... Super 8 imo, is reversal, neg looks to modern for me..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alan doyle Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Alan, the cinematography in your alonso ad is amazing! But I gotta say something.... That's not his voice! I can't see it without laughing! he arrived in a private jet and a helicopter,was on set for 50 minutes and was in a very bad mood. this was when lewis hamilton was getting all the attention. i felt a little sorry for alonso a lot of pressure but he could not read the autocue or he did not want to. the director would say 2 or 3 words and he would repeat,but it was bad. the whole clip is strange but the man they got to dub was terrible. by the way great work on your super 8 sync sound dubs.. you might want to look out for a company with BTS QUADRA Telecine machines these are old pre spirit machine but great s8 pictures. this is an old sync clip from this machine..s8 cartridge quality was better in the old days this is pretty stable. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0o2FGm_FyXs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie Noakes Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 this is an old sync clip from this machine..s8 cartridge quality was better in the old days this is pretty stable.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0o2FGm_FyXs I love that the Zoncster thought you were mad to shoot film instead of tape - did he know that you had shoved some Ilford XP2 into some super 8 carts? I mean that's extra. I love it though, I used it for stills back in the day but I wish I could shoot it cut down like this - fabulous! The Agfa is another mood - Oh how I would love to shove Agfa Ultima into a super 8 cartridge- well I can dream carnt I? :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you - and dare I say it, super 8 reversal shot with late 70's - early 80's lens technology looks more harmonious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
