Hello FrameWorkers,
You may be aware that we published a boxset of six Jonas Mekas DVDs
back in November, on the occasion of his 90th birthday and complete
retrospective at the Pompidou Center.
I just wanted to announce five new DVDs that complete the major works
of Jonas Mekas.
The new
I do have some questions:
- The construction is not fundamentally different from other frame-by-frame
scanners such Müller HM73, Moviestuff or Richard Tuohy's $1000-$3000 DIY
telecine machine.
- The use of a digital SLR camera instead of an industrial video camera
will produce better image
The idea of using the collection in Jordan as a guinea pig is troubling.
re: Florian's last point, a lot of it seems to be small gauge.

The jitter issue is less severe than it might have been, since the edges of
the frame can be located digitally and each frame recentered individually.
With film that has shrunk at all this becomes important anyway.
But... the issue of wearing out the shutter is a very serious one that I
had not
Seems like the way to solve the mirror problem is with a Sony NEX camera.

Well, there's nothing wrong with a mechanical shutter... it just needs to be
a shutter designed for the job like, say, a rotating disc shutter as
used for motion picture work

We scan around 350,000 frames a day on our Muller scanner. A two-shift
operation working with fully-assembled small gauge reels would typically run
over a million frames/day per scanner.
The AEO-Light software Matt uses to read and convert optical tracks is great,
but it's far from real-time
Whatever happened to shooting from the side of a fridge? (like Guy Madiin)

Scanning speed is usually related
