i think it will be standard to have prints made for archival reasons and also there will always be retrospective cinemas. I would think it maybe a good skill to have for the future.

also just to let you know the best Reversal lab for Ektachrome by far in my opinion and I used spectra, pro 8, pac lab and andec in Berlin is Tony Scott's Film and Foto ltd in Ealing , London.. so save yourself the shipping from the UK to the States unless your really attached. Wes Anderson used him for the reversal stock in 'Life Aquatic' . I have never had any dirt, scratches or staines like I have with the other reversal labs.

in france you can request the police to hand check the film I did this very recently. You can also get a fake sticker that says the film is inferred film which can not go through the x-ray machine. The countries I have had no luck at all with hand checks are England, Italy and Canada. Holland, France, USA, and China were ok (some after a lot of explaining). Heathrow, Manchester and Gatwick were 'no way' even if it was inferred. In the UK and most places Fed Ex x-ray everything. DHL in the UK if you go directly to the sorting office they hand check as they do not have the x-ray machines (especially in more provincial towns). I have put film through and it was fine, but the thing is its a risk, and the film that I had fogged was 100 asa. these stickers are handy http://motion.kodak.com/US/en/motion/Education/Publications/Shooting/xray.htm

this is what is great about movies.. too many things are not fully under control so it will never be replicated. I say use older lenses than they used on those 82 pictures (look at Cooke SPs, Kowas or 70s Canons) Shoot on eterna 500t vivid and push it a stop for night and maybe use the 64D in day and push it a stop or the 160 vivid and push it one stop. The Ektachrome 100D pushed a stop is also a very early 80s/late 70s feel but real expensive. but yeah the lighting is important too. as for digital.. over light and over expose maybe.

I was using the SFX 200T Kodak stock from around 2000 and that was listed as SO. It was supposed to be a good stock for green screen but was the closest neg stock I saw to Kodachrome. I don't think it was used much. Some tests for 'Down with love' exist somewhere where they tested it as a normal non special effects stock.

Can anyone post music videos made with a Bolex

Martin Stent in London does all thew work for Bolex.co.uk and he is very very good and an expert with Bolex's and is a perfectionist.

i have had x-ray fogging. You can request in the states to hand check. call before hand.

I know them well. Very good telecine. Easy going, BUT had problems with what I think was 'hot developing' and also loss of negs. This is not common but once in sometimes too much.

you can buy Fuji Velvia 50 in 16mm from Germany. Amazing stock. Its branded as Cinevia 50D I believe.
