 I'm often finding myself shooting in lower frame rates such as 8fps and

 it's proper frame rate in order for me to have a totally accurate

 Polly from utilizing their services for super 8 contend for her latest

 As Roger said, they are more than willing to provide samples of their work
 if you ask. Their website already does have content to peruse.

 Hello all,

 Has anyone used Frame Discreet in Toronto for their 2K digital transfer,
 especially for colour super 8? Looks like a decent deal but I can't say
 that I've seen any work come out of there personally...

 Thanks,

[Frameworks] push processing 7266

2013-04-28 Thread Erin Weisgerber
Hello all,

I am hoping to push processing some 7266 by one stop.

Usually I develop 7266 in a lomo tank using D19 + Potassium Thiocyanate as
my first developer for 6 minutes at 20 degrees Celsius. I agitate for 10
seconds each minute.

Does anyone know how I might alter the time or temperature of my first
developer to push one stop? Any guidance in terms or approximate time or
temperature increase would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much,
Erin

A 36-exposure roll of 35mm still film is about 5 feet long. If you equate that roughly as equal to 11 feet of 16mm film, a 100-foot roll of 16mm is similar in overall size to 9 rolls of 36-exposure 35mm.-Original Message-

Re: [Frameworks] Footage equivalency

2013-04-28 Thread Beebe, Roger
I just woke up from a nap, so maybe my brain isn't working correctly, but 
shouldn't we be talking about AREA rather than length?  That is, a 35mm frame 
is roughly 4x the area of a 16mm frame, so it requires 4x as much chemistry, 
not the roughly 2x suggested by the math below.  So if 5 feet of 35mm equals 
about 20 feet of 16mm, then 100 ft.=5 rolls of 36-exposure 35mm film.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong on this, but that's how I've always done the 
math.

Re: [Frameworks] Frame Discreet 2K

2013-04-28 Thread John Woods
I've had regular HD transfers done with them. They are quite good for the 
price, however, as an out of town customer I will say that their turnaround is 
slow and its difficult to get the best out of your transfer when you don't get 
to supervise. But no regrets! They care about the medium and the quality of 
their work. I can show you the Super 8 colour neg they transfered if you want 
to come by sometime or e-mail me and I can send you some links.


If you have a lot of time and are short on money. Cineworks now has a JK with a 
Super 8 and 16mm gates that has a DSLR mounted on it. Its a slow process but 
the quality is very high and if you don't have a lot of film to transfer its 
your best bet in Vancouver. The cost of renting it for an afternoon will be 
less than shipping film to the Big Smoke.

I was at the festival last weekend for the screening of my film Victor #5 and 
will reiterate everyone's opinion! Great programming, cool venue and 
projectionist, great crowds, warm organizers and volunteers. I felt very 
welcome there. Met a lot of cool people, some I got to know better than others 
but that is life.

If you get the chance, I'd encourage anyone to try to attend this festival.

Re: [Frameworks] Footage equivalency

2013-04-28 Thread Ed Inman
In terms of area, by my calculations, 5 feet of 35mm film equals 53340 square mm and 11 ft. of 16mm equals 53645 square mm which is pretty close. This is not an exact science, though, because it does not figure in the relative larger size of the 35mm sprocket holes to the smaller 16mm ones. Figuring that in, I'd estimate the actual conversion would probably be closer to 10.5 feet of 16mm, but to get really scientific you'd have to factor in the exact hole sizes, determine whether the 16mm is perforated 1 or 2 sides, etc. Regardless, I think if JV's instructions claim he can process eight 36 exposure rolls of 35mm film in a quart of his solution, he can be reasonably certain it's safe to process 100 feet of 16mm in the same. The bigger question to me is whether a suitable tank for 100 feet would require such little chemistry. I would be skeptical of trying to process E6 in a "rewind" tank and the large spiral reel tanks I use for 16mm require closer to a gallon of chemistry. But maybe that's why they call this the "experimental" film group. Might as well try it--good luck. --Ed-Original Message-
