Yesterday in fact. It's the camera announcement people are most excited about, 
which is ironic in many ways.

will be fun, and only take very short lengths of film, but so what. It's 
sure to work a la 1915 style, but that's good enough.

Fun is very important I feel.

It only shoots what would be 36exp film, but it shoots 3fps in Super35 2perf, 
so it works out at something like 50 seconds depending how fast you are 
cranking. Kinda reminds me of the debrie pavro.

 


Say, what with all these really cheap 35mm short ends all over the place 
can we be seeing a renaissance in real film making, like a back-to-the-roots 
time?

Well the bad news is that those short ends will be ECN2, so you won't be able 
to process them at your minilab and the movie labs are not going to like 
getting a 36exp film to process. HOWEVER you could get hold of either 100ft 
Eyemo loads of doubleX 5222 or the same in normal 400ft loads. Black and white 
film is cheaper than colour and if you bulk load it onto film cassettes it will 
go a long way. Then you can process it yourself in a normal 35mm developing 
tank, just like still film. Alternatively you can of course just use still film 
as intended.

 
Kind of like what happened 100 years ago with English poetry?
 
I missed that one? Was that the invention of the biro or cartridge pens or 
something? The typewriter??

Alan Berliner made a doc about his insomnia, Wide Awake I believe it is. I 
haven't seen it, but he's one of the few filmmakers who has made really good 
documentaries AND really good experimental films. Rudy Burckhardt had a nice 
little poetry film In Bed. Nightcats and the Sexual Meditations by Brakhage.

On a practical note, if you can't sleep, turn on the tv. It will do it for you.

[Frameworks] Super 8 developing lomo tank

2011-11-04 Thread Kevin Timmins

Hi frameworks
I've got some developing a foot tis weekend. I usually develop one film at a 
time in my 50ft tank instead of 2. This time I'm going to do 2 at a time. 
However I have hit a problem... Well two problems actually. The first:
I snapped the smaller thread off the tightening device. Just snapped right off 
the last time I developed. I've made a quick fix but will be needing a new one. 
Any ideas where I can pick up lomo spares anyone? I don't really wont to have 
to buy another tank. I just need the little thread bit.
Secondly, I poured one litre of water (I'll be using a 1ltr kit) into my 
developing tank just to make sure the water would cover both spirals. NO WHERE 
NEAR! In the bottom of my tank there was a little plastic nipple that raised 
the spirals. I sanded that off... Still no joy, the water still only just hit 
the surface of the top spiral... So I got my dermal and cut a bit of the base 
of the lower spiral... It just about works now but I would feel more 
comfortable if I new the chemicals completely submerged both the spirals. 
So I'm wondering if I add an extra 10ml of water to the first/colour developer, 
bleach fix... etc... would that make any difference to the developing times or 
much difference to the final outcome of the developed film? Would it still work 
ok?

I second the Alan Berliner recommendation.  I saw the film several years
ago, and thought it was very good.  As I recall, it did a good job making
the issue of insomnia palpable both in its personal effects and as a 
general problem, an assessment that it interestingly calls into
question.

There are two good docos about call centers in India, where the workers keep 
odd night schedules:
  Sonali Gulati: Nalini by Day, Nancy by Night
  Ashim Ahluwalia: John and Jane
Very different in style and POV, so not redundant.

Also, the guy whose rampage is the subject of the excellent doc Cul De Sac by 
the late Garrett Scott was a laid off late shift worker with insomnia. Some of 
the interview footage in this film is poorly shot, but don't let the odd look 
put you off. Overall, it's edited very well, very smart, and remains powerful, 
disturbing and extraordinarily topical. Highly recommended

Loads of footage online. Here are some of my favourites so far:

So many questions. But I do like it. A lot. Too bad we did not have those in

Re: [Frameworks] I can´t sleep

2011-11-04 Thread Jorge Lorenzo Flores Garza

Well, yes, of course, reading Mark Toscano's reply, there are all those films 
made at night.  I saw one by Takashi Ito called GHOST.  It was made in a 
dormitory in the company where he worked.  And he wrote that he was sleeping 
like two hours a day because of shooting long exposures frame by frame.  I 
highly recomend his work.  SPACEY is very interesting.  It uses animation 
techniques with photographs of a huge gym, but it seems like it was shot in the 
same painstaking conditions...I'm sure he didn't sleep much.

And let's not forget Jeanne Liotta's OBSERVANDO EL CIELO.  I am one of the 
unfortunate one that hasn't seen it, but the clips look really good and I am 
sure she didn't get much sleep while doing it.

Cheers,

Jorge Lorenzo

   INSOMNIA by Fred Worden
   Different sizes of hole-punches in black leader.  I think Fred made this 
during insomnia-driven late nights, but not sure.  His scratch film BOULEVARD 
may also be relevant.  And perhaps EVERYDAY BAD DREAM.
   
   999 BOY by Chris Langdon
   10 minutes of 400-speed b/w footage driving in the desert at night, only 
headlights illuminating the landscape - the night merging with and emerging out 
of the grain field that makes up the film's dominant imagery.
   
   VENICE PIER by Gary Beydler
   
   HAULING TOTO BIG by Robert Nelson
   Covers dream states, documented reality transformed as folklore, hypnosis, 
landscape wanderings, many other things...
   
   Many by Lewis Klahr or Janie Geiser (like THE FOURTH WATCH)  Actually, 
Lewis's GOVINDA would be great.  Late night softporn, a found student film, and 
a super 8 wedding.
   
   THE DEATH OF THE GORILLA by Peter Mays
   Shot off of late-night TV, multiple passes in-camera with different color 
filters.  Amazing stuff, you can see images at my blog, 
preservationinsanity.bogspot.com if you want
   
   IN PROGRESS by JJ Murphy and Norman Bloom
   Simple and beautiful landscape studies shot over months from a fixed camera 
view.
   
   Much of Richard Myers' body of work is richly about dreams, sleep, 
searchings, wanderings...
