Re: [Frameworks] Questions on Film-Making

2012-11-14 Thread Imogen Pring

Dear Jason,

Thank you for your response! My CV does not really have anything on it that 
really relates to my film practice - would you like it anyway?
Please feel free to answer these questions however you like - long
 or short! And feel free to add on anything that may not be specific to 
the question.

1. How would you define your practice of film-making?

2. Do you think your method of film-making categorises you as a particular type 
of film-maker (for example, experimental)?

3.
 What is it about how you film or just film in particular, that attracts
 you to film? Is it aesthetically pleasing? If so, why?

4. What do you think the importance is of film and sound together, especially 
in relation to the sound of the projector?

5. Is film animate or inanimate? 

Thank
 you again! If you have any further suggestions on possible readings or 
things to research please let me know! Would love to see some of your 
films also.

Best wishes,
Imogen

Dear Fellow Film-Makers,
I am currently a student in my third year at University and I am doing Super 8 
film and love it! I am writing my dissertation alongside my practice and taking 
quite a personal approach. Therefore, I was hoping to ask several film-makers 
questions as part of my research on their approach to film, and their different 
views of it. 

I would be hugely grateful if you would let me email you some questions asking 
you about film-making, experimental film-making and generally what it means to 
you, and a few other things I am hoping to look at. My email address is 
i.pr...@hotmail.com and so if you are interested please get back to me! I would 
love to hear any sort of answers, they can be as long or as short as you like!

I hope to hear from you soon. I am not emailing anybody specifically - the 
broader the variety of film-makers, the better! 
Best wishes,Imogen Pring

[Frameworks] News from Canyon Cinema

2012-11-14 Thread Mark Toscano
This message was sent out to Canyon's filmmaker members today, and we'd like to 
share it with the Frameworks community:


To the Canyon Cinema Inc. Filmmaker members:

We would like to thank all of you that responded to our recent request to vote. 
With a resounding approval, the membership voted by more than the 1/3 needed 
with 105 votes in support of dissolving Canyon Cinema Inc. and having the 
Canyon Cinema Foundation, a nonprofit in the state of CA, absorb its assets. 
There was only one vote that disapproved of this conversion.  This will now 
enable Canyon to apply for the IRS Federal non-profit exempt status under 501 
(c) 3. We will be filing the IRS 1023 form before the end of the year and will 
keep you updated.

Please check the main page of our website for updates:

We will also provide updates on our Facebook page and Twitter feed.

Thanks again for your continued support.

All the best from the staff and Board of Canyon Cinema,

[Frameworks] Lawrence Brose: why the silence?!

2012-11-14 Thread scott
Frameworkers, Why the silence about the situation of Lawrence Brose? Perhaps because many don't know what's been happening in Buffalo, where an accomplished film artist is being persecuted by Homeland "Security." For information check out a recent article in ARTVOICE: http://artvoice.com/issues/v11n45/guest_essay. Or google the Lawrence Brose Defense Fund.Scott

[Frameworks] E6 kit for super8 hand processing

2012-11-14 Thread Sonali
I used to use the TMax kit by Kodak to hand process super8mm film but now that 
that's been discontinued I'm planning on using the E6 kit.
Any pieces of advice?

Also if I want to experiment solarizing the film, should I do that after the 
first developer or after the color developer?

Would love any piece of advice/ recipes from Frameworkers as I play around with 
this tomorrow.

Thanks in advance

Re: [Frameworks] E6 kit for super8 hand processing

2012-11-14 Thread Robert Schaller
Solarization (Sabatier)  is a first-developer thing, because it effects how the 
image is formed from the latent image by the developer.  The second developer 
pretty much develops everything that's left on the film, so solarization in the 
second developer shouldn't do much.  Then again, I never use the E6 kit; does 
it require reexposure before the color developer, or is it a fogging (color) 
redeveloper that does not require light?  If the latter, then there might be an 
interesting differential to be had between light-reexposure (from Sabatier)  
and chemical reexposure.

I have contributed to the Lawrence Brose Defense Fund and strongly urge others 
to do so too.
