We shot a short film on 7240 VNF reversal a couple of years ago and really loved the graininess and muted color. We stumbled on it quite by accident, and we're far from experts at this stuff. Now, we want to shoot another project with the same 70s feel, but 7240 VNF seems to have been discontinued.
Was the 70s feel from the fact that was VNF?
The only color reversal I can find is 7285. Is this the only color reversal being made? From what I can tell reading these forums, it was the fact that our 7240 was VNF, not that it was reversal, which made it grainy. Is that true?
Are we going to have to add the effect digitally [which seems duplicitous somehow], or are there 16mm film stocks still being produced which are similar? Is there a way that we can have the film processed to give it this look?
