Dunno if you guys ever visit triggerstreet? Cool idea (though very commercial!) Anyways I've been visiting it now for well over a year and when I started logging on it was almost exclusively DV shorts, with the odd 16mm or 35mm one.
More and more recently Super8 is being used.
I think this is fantastic! I live in Ireland and I never see or hear of anyone else using Super8.
Oh to anyone looking to enter their movie in a real film festival, my local city's Foyle Film Festival is now looking for entries. http://www.foylefilmfestival.com
It is one of the qualifying festivals for the Acadamy aswell.
This year is the first year they are accepting digital entries too for small guage filmmakers.

Yeah I know that, I just find it very refreshing that Super8 seems to be fast becoming the number one choice of indie film-makers.
I know lots of people in the media industry (believe it or not) who don't even know of the existance of Super8. And don't seem to understand the difference between film and video. It's because video has been around for so long now as a cheap media.

Ah, then it's just the ticket for Super8 afficionados.mattias wrote:confusing, user unfriendly, hard to use
Yes, this has come up before. I recommend it though, but only if you're participating with your own film (otherwise you might as well go to Atomfilms). It's great for getting anonymous feedback on a film. It's a good skill building tool for non-professional filmmakers... seeing what works and what doesn't.
