tho with k40 you could spend as little as 4.88 to process it. E160 is another story!

Shoot it of course, worse thing could happen is that its super pink. B&W it after transfer, boost the contrast, there you go.

Oh and here's a recent video with some dirty tri-x "kinescopes" from the band fronted by that stount yeoman getting ferociously murdered by a pear:

Its so fun replicating all those stiff, low-tech effects. Stopmotion, backwards filming, absurd undercranking... really complete fun to do this feature, usually films for me are sporadic bursts of fun surrounded by little sleep and things going wrong. Its an amusing little colorful lark that should ...

A non-reflex Bolex is wonderfully cheap and gets a lot of bang for the buck... i've been using mine for over a decade, and it was used for a further half century before me by who knows who. It looks like complete shit after a million battles in crappy weather with crappier scripts but still runs ...

oh heck yeah, the music is off and won't be in the finished thing. I needed some quick "menace," that happened to be my girlfriend's school project that was handy to be cut and pasted in. I won't mention it to her in case she starts having another session of doubts about being a composer...

The ...

Next time i'll just shoot a gray card or something... maybe a wobbly shot of a balloon... that tends to heat up discussion! Anybody want to argue about filters?

"A BELLY FULL OF ANGER"

Even the most jaded among you will be disgusted by the sight of it!

Can you stand the frankness of truth behind every scene?

large, painful knuckles
large, violent deaths
large lakes of liquified flesh

the 40 minute take in Inland Empire is that Laura Dern confession to the strange man in the office that's strewn throughout the whole thing, the first part of the project to be shot and the genesis of all the improvisations around it.

I quite liked it in a theater, when the lights came up a friend ...

A very strange effect! I thought it might be a broken camera but it was done on manual exposure and all the tri-x and plus-x was rock solid. You could see the image fading on the actual film... it increased when we tried pushing it a few stops in development.

some snippets of it in this trailer ...

Last year I shot about 15 1992-93 expiration Svema b&w reversal carts and it was really inconsistent and constantly brightened a bit and darkened, when projected it gave a nice silent movie style organic flickering... Of course the exposed image was so faint that once you increased the contrast a ...

that's good to know. I have 12 16mm tri-x, plus-x, and 4-x spools with 68-72 expiration dates. A flickering, age fogged image would be great for what i'm doing.. I love the look of expired Svema S8...

I've had a lot of fun with the 64t stock - since we couldn't get enough k40 via ebay to deal with an endless HK film pastiche feature, and needed the cheapest solution possible to finish it on film - I got a mess of the 64t from kodak and am really happy with the look... indoors with the right ...

Crappy DV, hideously outdated 7245 16mm, equally ancient Kodachrome S8, a snippet of Tri-X... preheat oven to 450 degrees, add potatobugs, lice, blood, broken guitars, and boredom. Serves seventeen, may cause genetic damage and migraine headaches. With a ...

What I really want to do is fight about Mac vs. PCs!

Amiga will win anyway.

Somebody give me a RED to make a weird sketch show with. Looks like it'd be fun for tv stuff... maybe a laugh track-free nonstudio drama/comedy shot on location.

production stills from another insane 16mm/S-8 feature... script written a decade ago, excruciatingly enacted by old world craftsmen trained in horrible methods of madness...
