My son also likes the feeling of projecting and my super 8 cameras. He is only two years old but he loves proyection and the cameras as well. He prefers playing with the cameras to any other child toy. Really.

The young generation are open and ready to shoot super 8 films... :wink:

what exactly did you have in mind? Short films. I understand that for a 120 minutes movie, super 8 is not so good and not a practical format (but I'm not sure), I think short films and ads and clips are the future for super 8 (and parts of travel films like global trekker series). And I just like to...

I'm sure that a modern quarz system is more accurate: on the other hand why people pay a lot of money for the mechanical watches? but "mechanical" watches are still quartz controlled most of the time, aren't they? or aren't those considered mechanical? /matt No, I think the real valuable ...

Yes, there are super 8 films but it seems to me, if we compare the number of s8 film which has been made, and the number of downloadable films I think more than 95% of the films are not available. Am I right?

Thanks for this site:
http://www.brownfish.com
I enjoyed it :P

But I think there are other formats as well, not just super 8. I'm interested in especially a site where I can find only super 8 movies...

I'm not so good in technical questions, but just think about the case of handmade mechanical swiss watches. I'm sure that a modern quarz system is more accurate: on the other hand why people pay a lot of money for the mechanical watches? I think because these watches gives you a unique feeling and t...

Downloadable Super 8 films

What is the reason that there are such a limited number of super 8 film downloadable? For example I can reach from this page just a few films. Why? It seems to me reading the forums that there are a lot of very active and talented filmmakers here. But where are the films? Just projecting not digital...

Nigel, yes I think I can understand now what you were thinking about this. On the other hand I have no personal experience what is a personal cult could be (in Hungary only in the fifties were a personal cult of a communist dictator called Rakosi - he was 150 cm tall, bold and fat: the Hungarian ant...

Good Luck Is there any cult of personality among users of super 8? It is even hard to understand what you are thinking about... Just rem...
