Just came acros this,DIRECT SOUND FILM AVAILABLE AGAIN

Post by john59 »

Angel Caro, the owner of Revelado Reversible, the small format lab in Spain, gave me the first single-8 cartridge with Ektachrome 100 magnetic striped (in a fully dark room). I filmed this test with the direct sound camera Fuji Z850Sound. Full test report in the April issue of the british magazine International Movie Making. Thanks for looking! (sorry, the sound is only in Spanish) http://www.vimeo.com/18753582

Serious news on S8 nowadays shows up there and elsewhere first before it does here :( Both Baumgarten and Benedeti post there.

Hopefully he (the striper) gets matters going fruitfully. It will indeed be difficult to find empty/new sound cartridges. Maybe he can check with GK film to get him to design a sound version of the improved cartridge too. Although it may well be 2015 before you get anything then :)
Kind regards,

André
