  1. Awesome! Thanks for your reply, I'll definitely check out Retro8 and see how we can this project going. I'd really hate to have to settle for B&W.
  2. Paul, Got your message... VERY impressive, my friend! I will PM you with some questions I wanna ask you. Thanks again!
  3. Richard, Wow... thanks for all that info. It's very enlightening. My own personal computer is a 27" iMac which I think has a screen that's about as good as it gets. I will run a couple of tests and see if ultimately this is the best solution for what I'm trying to accomplish. The way you describe it sounds like I'd save a ton of heartache (and money) by just doing it myself this way and then duping the film at a pro studio. It definitely needs to be color and if captured correctly, I hope the quality is about as good as it can be. Thanks a million! ** goes off to ebay to buy a super 8 camera **
  4. Wow... these guys seem to do exactly what I need (except in b&w)... I'll definitely give them a call and find out whether they do color super 8. Thanks so much for the resource!
  5. Matthew, Thanks for that! Using the screen-filming technique is something I have considered, but I figured the quality would only be as good as my monitor's output and camera intake, almost like a copy of a copy (correct me if I'm wrong). Ultimately that might be the solution, but I was thinking more in terms of direct transfer like it's done for feature films. Long shot, I know, but someone must still have the equipment to do this and willing to give it a shot. Here's what I'd like the output to be used for: Putting a 60-second motion graphics reel onto 8mm film to be viewed by a toy film viewer, distributed as promotional materials at trade shows, etc.
  6. Hello everyone, I own a motion design studio and for a long time I've wanted to put a 100% digitally-produced piece (motion graphics) onto a super 8 reel to be viewed with a toy film viewer. I got everything figured out, except who to go to in order to transfer this .mov file onto S8 film. All the research I have done only leads to transferring from Super 8 to digital, not all the way around (for obvious reasons, nobody needs to do that, except me, I guess). Any guidance provided by you, oh bright ones, will be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Leo
