  1. I started taking short road trips after I got my license at 16. I'd take day trips to Desert Hot Springs, Indio and 29 Palms. I had visited them as a kid when my family visited friends there. From there I took an overnight drive to Yosemite. I had a little VW bug. I got sleepy driving home at 2 AM, so pulled over on the highway to sleep. I slept in the back seat all jammed up. Then I took some day trips to the Sequioa's and Tiajuana. I was pretty broke, so no motels. Back then they didn't have restrictions on new licensees like they have now. Once you got your license...you could just drive! I didn't get into longer road trips until I got a cheap van. I guess all the early road trips I took instilled a nostalgic note in me when it comes to road trip films in the film archive. Recently I came across a fantastic 16mm home movie road trip film series called "All 48 in our 88 in 58." Sadly, I found out about the series after all the reels were sold except 1 reel, which I acquired. The collection was broken up and sold to different buyers over a number of months. Too bad it was not kept intact and sold as a collection. Here are some frames from that film. (All photos are from the seller of the film.) I always love when the road trip reels have progress maps in them. This filmmaker was pretty talented as far an amateurs go. He had nice comp, focus and exposure and a dash of creativity. That is all you can ask for! This reel was #9 of the series. Who know how many reels were in the series to cover all 48 states. If you look closely, you can see the name of their expedition on the back on their Olds 88 station wagon. As a bonus, I got some footage of a cable shovel on the road trip reel. Steam and diesel cable shovels are another area of collection in the archive. Lots of roadside attractions in the road trip reels! Looks like they did lots of camping, but maybe it is just a break for lunch. I wonder if they stayed in motels or camped all the way? The wife was in high heels a lot of the time. But she had changed for the cookout. That is the problem when a film series is broken up, you just have to guess. The wife would get out there in the fields, even in high heels. Maybe she is picking up a memento here...dunno. I got lots of other road trip films in the archive. Hopefully I will get a scanner someday. I got millions of feet of fantastic films! And if not, the best a person can hope for is that a picker gets ahold of them and they get resold on eBay if they kick off. That doesn't mean they would ever be online for viewing, but it beats them all being trashed in the nearest dumpster. Just never know how things will go. That is why I started to put up a few frames of the exceptional films online. I try and preserve something from them in case they all get trashed. You know the deal...something is better than nothing. It had just occurred to me this year to start saving the frames used in the online sales to include in the film description folder in the master film inventory. My preference would be to include a film sampler of the entire reel in the folder, but you need a scanner to do it. If no sampler is available, then a few snapshots of a film is good to have. A sped-up film sampler is a fantastic tool to have when you have thousands of home movies to deal with. They are good to have for any movie and not just home movies. But home movies are especially hard to deal with when they have no central theme. Here are examples of films sampler experiments I did to show you what I mean. Sampler experiments were made with still frames as well as by speeding up the film. There is a sweet spot that gives you a decent snapshot of a film along with being fast.

  3. Hi, i have a travel job coming up where we're shooting on 16mm. Since i've never done a travel job with film before i'm wondering how it works with the security and x-ray scanners. Can i ask security to hand-inspect the rolls in the dark bag or will they understand that it's film and have some kind of procedure for it? It's a 2 day shoot and we have 8 rolls of film.
  4. Hey, I have 2 travel films here, one from Vietnam and another from Sicily. Whenever visiting foreign places I like to shoot as much as I can to practise framing etc. I like to go for this documentary style while still trying to be artistic. I am also a freelance illustrator so that's where that's coming from Basically, not 'real' cinematography practise which would include lighting, blocking etc. but more about finding composition/moods and then editing Hope you like, they are both short Vietnam: Sicily:
  5. I'll be traveling from LA to Berlin, Zurich, and then back to LA and I was curious if y'all could tell me about the restrictions/regulations of traveling with gear. I'm trying to put together a small camera package that can be put in to the overhead compartment, I know there's some business with lithium ion batteries so that's definitely a concern. Also, any recommendations for cameras of the 4K variety that are compact would be amazing. Thank you in advance!
  6. Hi everybody, I was hoping to get some advice over here, as I'm just getting into the world of Super-8 cameras. I'm on the hunt for a Super-8 camera with the following features: Lightweight and not too big, since it will mainly be used to document my travels around the world Not too fragile, as again I will bring it on hikes and the likes. So it will have to be able to endure a life in a backpack. Split-image focusing Recognizes the 64 ASA speed Easy to operate. Although I'm in the animation business myself, I'm actually not aiming to use this camera for professional productions. So ease of use is an important factor, as I would like to be able to hand the camera to my girlfriend and her being able to operate the camera without having to give her a detailed 'workshop' :) After doing some research I'm leaning towards the Nizo 561 Macro. I would love to hear your thoughts and are open to any suggestions/alternatives! Kind regards, Joris
  7. To end the year of 2016, my friend Mark and I decided to head west on an adventure and to shoot some beautiful Californian landscape footage exclusively on the DJI Mavic Pro.

  10. I currently don't have much knowledge at all regarding video, but am looking to get in to it. I have a very limited budget but will be going to Thailand at the end of the month and hope to get some footage. I know someone selling a Leica V Lux 1 for cheap, it seems to be a good choice. A sample of the type of footage I hope to achieve is linked here: I realize that this is made on film and to achieve that myself will require lots of editing work. I just wanted some opinions on how viable this is with the Leica V Lux, or any other entry level camera. If it isn't, I'm fine to hear it, I just am having trouble finding information. Any advice is much appreciated.
  11. hey all, posibility of traveling to Haiti with small crew by the end of the month to do some doc style/ live music filming. Was wondering if anyone had done any work or had speant any amount of time in haiti or filming in a similar country. Any crew support? security & health concerns, things in general to watch out for.... anything will help Thanks in advance!!
  12. I have recently been accepted to participate in the Canne Film Festival filmmaking program with Creative Minds Company. In the filmmaking program I am put into a group of fellow filmmakers and given a computer, camera, mic, and 7 days to make a film which will then be screened and judged by industry professionals. With this program I will be able to attend in the Canne Film Festival screenings, parties, and its beautiful location. Mingling with A list filmmakers and fellow students as well. http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/canne-festival-funding/x/2847880 Along with my Cinematography reel https://vimeo.com/55330379 and Vimeo account Vimeo.com/capsules Thank you guys so much!
  13. Please take a look at the cinematography of this film and let me know if you have any advice on how to get better shots or how to tell a better story visually. Thank you. https://vimeo.com/54423274
