[Frameworks] Films made with Canon Scoopic 16mm camera
Hi everyone, I'm trying to find examples of important films, or considered seminal works in the history of experimental cinema, made using a Canon Scoopic 16mm camera. Thanks for your help!

[Frameworks] Ooops. Ektachrome. Divorce.
Hi Brothers and Sisters, I'm a bit out of the loop on what stocks are discontinued, and just shot my wife's last roll of 16mm Ektachrome reversal (which was processed beautifully by Pac Labs here in NYC, incidentally). Any alternative to this stock so that I can replace this roll? Ebay? Fuji? Anyone out there holding and willing to sell? She's not on frameworks so with your help I can pull this off. Otherwise it's a move to the Super 8 motel for me.

Re: [Frameworks] sound track collaboration
Cool. Composers don't mind commissions though.

Not only is Kevin gracious enough to make all this stuff available for nada, he's also been willing to accommodate reasonable requests if you ask nicely (e.g. deleting a MIDI voice or two from one of his existing pieces in order to make a more simple background sans embellishment). My experience working with 'composers' to create original scores has not been at all positive. They tend to do their own thing and I tend to gag at the result. But then you're stuck with hurt feelings, I did all this work JUST for you... One of my friends commissioned his brother (an accomplished professional classical musician) to write a score for a film. He paid for it, too. The resulting music didn't work with the piece at all, so my friend had to ditch it (I heard it, he really HAD to...) This called a major family brouhaha, with angst that trailed on for years. Far better in most cases to see if Kevin has anything that works for your piece. YOU get to pick, and he's happy to get a credit no matter which of his works you might choose. Everybody wins. And did I mention that it's free? ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks

Re: [Frameworks] Films made with Canon Scoopic 16mm camera
Mark LaPore was a stalwart advocate of the Canon Scoopic and sang its praises to me one day long ago, describing it as basically a pumped up Super-8 camera (specifically a pumped up Canon 814-XLS): basically the thing is--unlike e.g. the Bolex and other 16mm cameras) a portable self-contained unit--automatic in-the-camera light metering, permanently attached zoom/macro lens and--best of all for LaPore (and for me) battery powered and thereby capable of long takes, up to the length of the 16mm roll (a little over three minutes). It's my understanding that most if not all of Mark LaPore's 16mm films were shot using this camera including *A Depression in the Bay of Bengal*, *The Five Bad Elements*, *The Glass System*, *The Sleepers*, *Kolkata*. Many (well, three) of these are available from Canyon Cinema: http://canyoncinema.com/catalog/filmmaker/?i=188 On Wed, Feb 19, 2014 at 6:13 AM, adeena@unil.ch wrote: Hi everyone, I'm trying to find examples of important films, or considered seminal works in the history of experimental cinema, made using a Canon Scoopic 16mm camera.

[Frameworks] Call for Submissions: LIFT International Artist Residencies 2014/2015
Hi all, We've opened our call for the next artist in residences at LIFT in Toronto. We just said goodbye to Pablo Marin, our latest resident, who spent a month making a beautiful 16mm film. We also supported Steve Cossman and Julie Murray this year and look forward to hosting Juan David Gonzolez Monroy and Anja Dornieden next month! Richard Tuohy also joined us last March! So, please apply and join us in Toronto. More info: The Liaison of Independent Filmmakers of Toronto (LIFT) is seeking applications from international (non-Canadian) artists for 46 week individual production residencies to take place between September 2014 and August 2015.

Toronto also offers a range of lab facilities, a large pool of experienced technicians and talent, a vibrant film community and a dynamic arts environment. LIFT's residency program focuses on the production of film-based works with equipment and facilities to which the artist would not have access in their local region. Artists are expected to be at an established point in their practice (although not necessarily working predominantly with film). Applicants must also consider what they would bring to Toronto in terms of community collaboration, teaching, artist talks and/or presentation activitiesthese engagements are a critical part of each residency offered by LIFT. The maximum cash funding for projects is $3,000 (CAD) for travel, accommodation and per diems. Equipment and facilities will be provided by LIFT to a maximum of $3,000 (CAD), LIFT equipment rates can be found at www.lift.ca.

[Frameworks] Journal suggestions for article on Sally Potter's Thriller?
Dear Frameworks list: Might someone suggest a leading, peer-reviewed journal that would be a good fit for submitting a short, scholarly (but not a ton of footnotes) article on Sally Potter's film Thriller (1979)? I come from the world of art history and contemporary art, and feminist analysis of representation, and welcome your suggestions. I wrote the piece for a PDF brochure accompanying a screening at Anthology Film Archives, NY, organized by the Dirty Looks series of queer experimental film. The screening was cancelled due to Hurricane Sandy. The article was never published in print and the brochures not distributed, although there is a PDF. Thus, I'd like to find a journal for the article and I'd be open to expanding the piece if the editors are interested. Thanks very much!

Re: [Frameworks] FLAME ON!!!
Interesting idea, although there's no reason why it should be limited to 720p. Except cost, I guess. But yeah, there are a lot of really good Super-8 cameras out there that would be rejuvenated by such a gadget.
