I'd like to keep my account please.

What's the difference between a PA and a dog?

People get upset if you mistreat the dog!

Did the Dead Next Door just get released now?

No it's been released on dvd/vhs before. This is the remastered version. There's a blog about the restoration process: http://www.deadnextdoor.com/blog/index.html

HDV is long GOP mpeg2. Which means that a group of pictures (GOP) is compressed as one unit which makes the compression much more efficient but makes the format problematic to edit. The GOP is 15 frames which means that if you get a tape drop out you will loose all of them (not just one frame as on DV).

Sounds odd! What is the source of this information?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Variety had an article about it:

Cheapest way is to shoot with an anamorphic 16x9 adapter AND your camera set to 16x9 mode at the same time. Do a search at dvinfo.net for more information about this.

Solid entertainment here in Sweden has a russian Kinor 35H converted to 2 perf.

What's the difference in negative size between super35 2,35:1 and 2 perf? Or asked in another way: is it worth, in terms of resolution/image quality, the extra cash to shoot super35 instead?

i worked with jess franco 4 years ago.

Wow, I'd love to work with Jess Franco!

Many asian directors shoot 3 or 4 films a year

Like Takashi Miike who's directed 64 films since 1991.

The spanish cult director Jesus Franco Manera (often credited as Jess Franco or under a gazillion pseudonyms) has 182 features listed on imdb and is often considered one the most prolific directors still working.

m2t = mpeg2 transport stream. I use VLC http://www.videolan.org to watch them.

Transfer to digibeta and then make dvcam dubs for editing. You can always on-line your digibeta masters later if needed.

I don't know about 2K scanners but here's a list of facilities in the world that can do s8->HD. I think that s8 telecined to D6 Voodoo should be good enough?

Shadow facilities that have a Super-8 Gate include:

VRT in Brussels Brussels, Belgium

Ware House (aka Digtial Film Labs) in Copenhagen, Denmark

Photo Cinema in Rome, Italy

Technicolor in New York

Modern VideoFilm in Burbank, CA.

Flying Spot in Seattle, WA

Spirit facilities that have a Super-8 Gate include:

On Line Video, Zurich

The Farm, London

Prime Focus, London

VTR, London

Lab O Scene, Rio De Janiero

The Film Unit, New Zealand

Library of Congress, U.S.

Telson, Madrid

Taken from Shooting 8mm

I would also like a s-8 section. Meanwhile check out Shooting 8mm.

Take a look at this web site: Bolex UK. Lots of info!

Howdy!

I know of places like Dr Rawstock and Film emporium in the US but where can I get short ends in Europe?

Yes but equally we have seen junk 16mm and junk 35mm too.

Of course a $7000 MiniDV movie also won [sundance] this year, so what the fu** do I know? :lol:

If it's Primer you're refering to it was actually shot on super-16mm.

It was shot on a Sony F900 Hdcam and Hokus Bougs Rekorder did the film out.
