Or you could make a short movie every 3 days with mini-dv (or every day if you really wanted) and then once you get good with that, then progress to 16. Sorry if I seem anti film here, im not in any respect. Its just that digital is such a great opportunity that would be dumb to turn down. When you ...

It would be great if we could all start out with 16. But seriously, can a high school senior afford that? Maybe, but they will definitly not be making as many movies as they would with mini-dv.

Well its more of a learning experience for all of us. And we dont have the budget for 16, but she can get HD equipment half price. I wanted to shake things up a bit for the hell scene, because she wants it to be different in many aspects to the "reality" of the rest of the movie, and since 16 is ...

I myself just got out of highschool. I started using super 8 around my last days of it at least even. I definitly suggest getting a 3ccd camera. Now before Im burned at the stake, here are my reasons. First off, you are learning. Mini DV is MUCH more forgiving. in the time and money you spend on a ...

This is what Im thinking (pardon the crappy drawing by the way)

we have a entire black room and from what I shot on K40 ...

I am very poor and my budgets are extremely tight. When buying 10 or more rolls, that extra money matters alot

I see what you mean. Well we will definitly shoot the scene HD for safety, but I also want to experiment with it super8. If you had to say a film stock Mattias, what would you pick?

Really Mattias? Even I am going for a totally different look? We want to seperate reality from hell as much as possible so i thought the extreme difference in format would help. Are you saying the quality of the image with be too drastically different? And thank you everyone else on the suggestions ...

As an 18 year old, from what ive grown up with, a "film" more than likely means a story told by moving images. Ive never seen any home movies on film, so I dont accociate it with that. Yah, technically, people who shoot video arent filmmakers, but that is what it has grown to be. People who spend ...

I saw it along time ago. It came out over there like 2 years ago

Well video has been around 20+ years, what effect has it had on film? Im only 18 years and only been coherent about film for the past 2 years, so what have you guys noticed?

I just got took my first roll of super 8 film to Sams for processing. They told me it would take 2 weeks, that seems like a LONG time. Also, would oyu guys suggest i buy my K40 from kodak without processing, and then get it processed at sams, or should I buy from kodak with processing?

Yah many NLE programs have these effects so you never actually mess up the film.

now thats cool. Thanks for letting us know.
