Re: [Frameworks] what to do with all my old film stuff??????
I'm teaching a cameraless filmmaking class right now, and I just had my students make 240-frame direct animation/distressed film loops using the material in our trim bins that's accumulated over the years. At least here at the University of Florida, all the odd scraps of films do get used/reused in the fullness of time.

Ship it all to me: Bernard Roddy School of Art and Art History University of Oklahoma Norman, OK 73019 I'm only interested in the out-takes. But I'll take the rest, too, after you transfer it all. It doesn't matter what it looks like. Don't think about it, just ship it. Bernie___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks
Re: [Frameworks] what to do with all my old film stuff??????
I'm not going to be giving my personal footage to anyone. I posted this topic because I don't know what to do with it, and I'm curious what other filmmakers have done with their old footage and miscellanae. Thanks. Kristie Reinders, B.F.A.

Kristie -- scanning is expensive, and bits are hard to preserve. I'd wind everything as compactly as you can, minimizing number of cans and recording all rearrangements, and try to keep it. Perhaps a relative somewhere has cool and dry space? Rick ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks
