I find it hard to believe that they will make more, unless there's a few frozen rolls around somewhere. Who said this?
BTW, who's going to the Jonas Mekas Birthday Party at Anthology? "It is confirmed, as you all know by now, that Kodak has discontinued Ektachrome. According to Beverly, our rep in L.A., the existing supply is already sold out, but more orders will continue to be taken. Anybody trying to order it now will be told the stock is on backorder, and in January they'll produce more to fulfill all of those orders. This is in part an attempt to be fair and prevent a few individuals from snapping up all the remaining supply and hoarding or reselling it at exorbitant rates. But I would order NOW if I were you." carli...@aol.com -----Original Message----- From: zach vonjoo <zu...@yahoo.com> To: frameworks <frameworks@jonasmekasfilms.com> Sent: Thu, Dec 13, 2012 8:59 am Subject: Re: [Frameworks] ektachrome 100d r.i.p. It is indeed very distressing that there will be no more reversal color film in the world. I wonder what it would take to manufacture a new stock independently, alla Impossible Project. Any ideas? Wondering, does all ektachrome use the E-6 process? Curious about using old expired film. I don't usually chance this, as I have had poor results in the past, but seeing as how stock is going to be limited... >From a friend-of-a-friend in the know: "It is confirmed, as you all know by now, that Kodak has discontinued Ektachrome.

If you want a strobe effect then you need to film the scene with a strobe light. If you want your film presented with a flickering projection then you will need to use an off speed projector and be willing to do other tinkering with the mechanics of the projector like modifying the shutter blades. ________________________________ From: franco base <frenk.ca...@gmail.com> To: Experimental Film Discussion List <frameworks@jonasmekasfilms.com> Sent: Sunday, December 9, 2012 12:29:19 PM Subject: Re: [Frameworks] flickering Hi.

That is, let's say you're shooting 24 fps and you shoot with a strobe that is firing right at 12 fps and happens to be timed so the shutter is fully open at all times. Every other frame is exposed, and when you project the film you get flashing. Now, that flashing doesn't look anything like a strobe light, because you are showing each frame for a full 1/24 sec. It also doesn't look the same as slowing the frame rate down either. In real life the camera is usually drifting in speed a bit and the strobe is drifting in speed a bit and they are never quite synched, so there is a slow variation going on as well. You might like it, you might not. --scott ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks End of FrameWorks Digest, Vol 31, Issue 12 ****************************************** _______________________________________________ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks
