Thanks for those clips! I really love travelogues...

This is one that I shot during a trip to the UK in 2004:

It was physically edited, and the sound added with the help of Pedro's sync device: http://www.super8sync.com

Hope you like it!

Darren,

I'm interested on the repair shop too...

Thanks a lot!

Perhaps André can help you...

Good luck!

That's great, guys. But still the problem is in projection.

For digital editing is perfect, but make a crystal-sync for an 8mm projector is impossible. You can't transfer the sound edited on the computer to the magnetic stripe without losing sync...

I would love to shoot regular-8, but it's impossible to do any kind of sync sound with it. I use to crystal-sync my Super-8 projector for mixing the sound on the computer and transfer back to the magnetic stripe on film. I don't know any regular8 model that can do this... Besides, the light power us...

Hi!

What kind of motor uses the old Workprinter Jr.?

I'm going to fix it, and I would like to have some of them in stock for the eventual trouble...

Thanks in advance!

I use a Panasonic AE-900, combined with an up-scaler DVD player, and the result is breathtaking on a 3 meter screen... Great colors, no screen-door effect and a very film-like quality. Obviously, it depends on the transfer and encoding of the movies too. Some DVD's are pure garbage and others look l...

Keep fighting, John! We want you to be here the next 200 years.

It was the "Period." Folks usually put that in when they're, say, adamantly ~tired of hearing otherwise~, or whatever. Just teasing anyway... Well, English is not my native language, so these things can happen. I can't express myself as well as I do in Catalan or Spanish. Maybe you've bee...

I was just saying that 18fps gives a different feeling to the motion. That's very obvious, and you know it as well as me. I wanted to clarify th...

Beautiful shot and excellent transfer. Will you post the entire video when finished?

18 fps always has a particular motion when telecined. Period. If you're not looking for this effect, shoot 24 fps. Hell! You're shooting a movie with actual film, actors, crew,... do it professionally. It's not affordable to shoot 18fps because you are loosing much more things than the money you've ...

I agree with your 3 points, but I think that showing stills from the same scene shot with same camera, different stocks and same telecine, makes for an interesting comparison. You can see how the image appears on each stock in equal conditions. Of course, the best way to ensure you like any stock is...

I'm reading it now and is as terrific as always...
The unique exception is the stock comparison test (useless as it doesn't show any picture), but I'm really enjoying the rest of the magazine.

Great work!
