a new part of the "water cycle", Panspermia is "out" (haha, the idea of a release date is so absurd with a youtube vid): https://youtu.be/OfkKWdajnDM
the first half shot with a Beaulieu Reflex Control (16mm), the second half with a Beaulieu 5008s Multispeed (in some shots fitted w/ an angenieux 12-120mm zoom)

I've been working on a script for a bigger-project lately, and my Beaulieu 5008s's light-meter has ceased functioning, so visual imaging is on a hold (and I got a bunch of new lenses that need servicing)... hoping to get one of the new Kodak S8 cameras before picking up production!

and another new one, misfire: https://youtu.be/GREU15t5aGQ
this one with actual actors (well, one at least), shot Super 16mm on Double-X Negative with an Aaton XTRprod and a glidecam (steadicam knockoff). It was originally a part of an 'exquisite corpse' project, and was shot on old film from my fridge. A tribute to a favorite filmmaker, Béla Tarr.
watch it 1080p, obviously (I wish youtube did 2k!) as youtube is very bad with film grain at lower resolutions

Beautiful tracking shot. Well done. It did invoke Tarr. I like how the actress drops the cigarette but the track continues with the male actor. Bravo! Gorgeous b/w stock. Orwo?

thanks! I shot it on Kodak Double-X Negative (did 9 takes on a single, 12 year old, 400ft roll). It's also my first time operating a steadicam, so it's not quite as smooth as Tarr's would be... but maybe someday I'll get there
