I’ve been meaning to post but simply forgot all about it.

Great work. Super 8 definitely works well for your concept.

Congrats!

I either want to hear it validated or retracted. If I'm wrong I'll eat my words and get my head around such a horrible thing happening to people - but I just get edgey because there's alot of good people in black and white Australia doing great work towards reconcilliation - and naive inflamatory c...

Do you mean the ‘tape’ look? Because I could clearly see that in certain scenes of Star Wars Episode 2.

I watched Russian Ark on DVD though – nothing was evident.
A very good example of HD work is ‘Climates’ by Nuri Bilge Ceylan.

*mpeg compression evident on the big screen in the darker scenes Scot How do you mean Mpeg compression. It was shot on HDCAM wasn’t it? I’ve seen it before. The fact that it is in one take actually helps the film. When I had first heard of it I couldn’t help but think that it w...

I really liked the shots of preparing the rig. In regards to the footage being taken whilst the camera is 'dropped', I was expecting maybe something else. It gets a little confusing - are the shots at the end just footage taken by the camera being dropped or have you mixed other footage in their. Sl...

I have a Nizo 801 Macro – I love it. The meter has always read correctly. Images come up beautiful. The only problem I have with it is that you can’t mount it on a tripod from the base, you need mount the handle. This is a major problem for timelapse on a windy day. I think the Pro dif...

Re: Super8 + HD video

Can't wait to capture using the hvx200 with the workprinter I have on order. What kind of set up are you looking at with your Workprinter and the hvx200. Nice footage. My two cents: The HD footage does its job really well. The S8 footage does its job not as well as it could. I was enquiring about t...

Nuri Bilge Ceylan has done a lot of this cinemascope photography, although Im not sure what workflow he used to get his dimensions: http://www.nuribilgeceylan.com/turkeycinemascope1.php?sid=1 Did you check out his exhibition in London? I think it was a couple of months ago. One of my favourite dire...

It’s good that there is some attention regarding Super 8.
There was also a brochure about Super 8 that Kodak brought out – I don’t have a copy though.

I don't think Mitch's set up is HD.
It looks great though. It's sharp - sharper than I would have expected.
