[Frameworks] The Super 8 film format is back with a vengence!

The Super 8 film format is back with a vengence!

Fantastic new Super 8 test film footage shot by German filmmaker
Friedemann Wachsmuth with the first new Super 8 camera in 30+ years !

Unbelievably sharp registration for such a tiny medium. I kept staring
at the corners seeking weave. I believe the previous benchmark set by
the 40+ year old Leicina Special with the same Schneider 6-66mm zoom
lens has been surpassed. Bravo to the Danish team of Lasse Roedtnesand
and his dad for a very impressive implementation and engineered
transport.

Kodak V3 50D color negative, 2K scan, Logmar S8 camera, Schneider
6-66mm zoom (C-Mount). Apprently there was some minor post processing
by Friedemann as per his comment on Vimeo.

OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT BY LOGMAR

http://www.cinematography.com/index.php?showtopic=62603

Posted Today, 04:36 AM

Hi there!

This morning I received some awesome footage from Friedemann, who has
been out filming with our original prototype camera. I think it's
worth sharing even though the camera used, is not the final production
model which we are still waiting for our subcontractors to deliver
parts for.

The footage has been 2K scanned by the good folks over at
GammaRayDigital in Boston.

Head over to our webpage at www.Logmar.dk and visit our sample video
section to have a look, but please bring your comments back here for
everyone to view and enjoy!

we would like to thank the following people for their support:

The users of Cinematography.com and Filmshooting.com for their endless
amount of good ideas and valuable feedback
Friedemann Wachsmuth for writing the great article at Filmkorn.org,
and volunteering as a beta tester.
Perry Paolantonio from GammaRayDigital for providing us with sponsored
2K scanning.
Jürgen Lossau for writing the inspirational Super8 books as well as an
article about our camera.

As well as all the people out there who has shared our story on
Facebook, twitter and other social medias!

Best regards
The Logmar Team

Re: [Frameworks] Films made with Canon Scoopic 16mm camera

2014-02-21 Thread Jeff Kreines
I am not a particular fan of Canon Scoopics, especially the earlier gray one 
(which had a terrible lens compared to the later black Scoopic 16MS).  

But I had one to sell.  Mark LaPore wanted to buy it, and I did my best to talk 
him out of it, but he finally convinced me that for him it was a good choice.  
He was right.  For Mark it was the ideal camera.  For others wanting a 100-ft 
load camera for non-sync shooting, there are better choices — Bolex, Arri 16s, 
Filmo.  But for Mark the Scoopic 16MS was perfect.

[Frameworks] question about fees for permission to use material (Caryn Cline)

2014-02-21 Thread chris
Hi Caryn,

$800 is a bit high on one hand, but also seems fair for adapting another
artists/writers work to your film and for all the rights they are granting
you.. you even have broadcast rights, which is a rarity! Maybe you think
broadcast's a moot point, but at least it opens things up so that you
don't ever have to sneak around... and streaming rights are definitely not
moot!

When I've worked with a writer I've tried to give him around that amount
for the work that he did, since it was essential to making it what it is. 
I know that its a pain to give the money to the mothercorp, new york
times, rather than directly to the writer, but they are also the ones
hiring the writer for his work. That's the contract he signed. As well,
It's probably good for him that they're able to monetize on his work
beyond the original article, no matter how small.

You're saying its about 1/3 the cost of the film. Is the soundtrack not
1/3 the experience of the film?

I think its harder to apply fair use when you've already asked them what's
fair to them. Also when you know the other creator, the concept of fair
use gets trickier, doesn't it?

I think its really about how essential you think this particular writer's
work is to your film in terms of whether you pay for it or make up a new
script of your own.

Finally, just for fun: doesn't NYT's occasionally run videos on their site
? Maybe eventually they'll be interested in hosting your project since its
derived from their writing--although only grant it if they pay you!

best
Chris

 Dear Frameworkers,



 I'm writing to ask your advice.  I'm working on a short handmade,
 experimental film that takes as its script a slightly modified version
 of
 an essay I found in the *New York Times*, which I plan to use as a
 voiceover narration on the soundtrack.  I wrote to the author to ask his
 permission to use it, which he gladly gave with this caveat: everything he
 writes for the paper is owned by them.  He gave me the name of someone to
 contact at the paper, who sent me to the paper's licensing people. I
 decided to follow that lead, to see where it went.  [I have not had good
 luck with trying to get permission for a reasonable fee before, but I
 decided to try, as an experience.]



 Well, needless to say the people who license for the *Times* want me to
 pay
 them what I regard as way too much money for the use of the essay--$800
 for
 rights for festivals, galleries, streaming, broadcast, etc.--for the life
 of
 the title.   As you know, it is difficult to communicate to people in
 these
 positions that there is absolutely no commercial value in the film.The
 money is about 1/3 of my overall budget.   Some of my handmade film
 buddies
 advised me to forget about the permission and just use it anyway, but I
 feel funny about doing that now, and as one friend who works in the
 business cautioned: my project and I are on their radar now.  Should I try
 to talk them down?  (They originally asked for $1300, so this is a
 considerable reduction from outrageously expensive to merely quite
 expensive.)  Should I claim fair use, and use the text anyway?   What
 are
 the chances that they would come after me?I'd appreciate any advice or
 hearing about your own experiences with this.  Many thanks.

The soundtrack to James Benning's film Deseret consists entirely of some
one reading NY Times articles aloud. I'm willing to bet he did not pay for
the rights nor
has been bothered by the NY Times about it.



I say go for it.

 The soundtrack to James Benning's film Deseret consists entirely of some 
 one reading NY Times articles aloud. I'm willing to bet he did not pay for 
 the rights nor has been bothered by the NY Times about it.

I repeat my point that it is not the rights holder the experimental filmmaker 
needs to be concerned about but programmers and other gatekeepers who are 
afraid of the rights holders (however misplaced that fear may be.)

No programmer in this field is going to say 'boo' to James Benning. For less 
well-known makers, especially people starting out, it's likely to be a 
different story.

 ch...@signaltoground.com wrote:

Er, no. It's a principle of law, not a matter for rights holders to decide 
themselves.

 Also when you know the other creator, the concept of fair use gets trickier, 
 doesn't it?

If someone you know demands a cash payment for something out of which you're 
unlikely to get even a penny in return, you need a better set of friends.

Hi Roger,

There are probably some deals to be had on eBay, or via a CML mailing list

who are eager to turn in the old for the new.

Dwight Cody sells editing supplies, and I believe he stocks splicers. If
you want something that comes with a quality guarantee, Dwight will
probably offer a competitive deal on a close-to-mint splicer. He
repairs/services them too, when the time comes. Website:

Hi Mariah,

It's been awhile since I have compared their rates, but Cineliscious is in
LA, and they are more than film friendly. Wide variety of services in
transferring film, last time I checked. Supervised sessions may still be
slightly steep, there but they do top shelf work and are very small
gauge/independent friendly. You may know them or have ruled them out
already. Again, it's been awhile, and I'm not sure if they have increased
their rates or not.


Cinelab is not anywhere near LA (New Bedford, MA), but they have worked
really hard to develope their scanning and HD tele services, and they do a
lot of 16mm work. Their rates are competitive, and they too are a
modest outfit that deals with a lot of different projects.

Both places are worth cold calling, as they will each have folks who will
be happy to speak with you, and possibly offer a deal. There are others,
but I have less experience with them. Hope this helps,

Isaac

What kind of telecine do you want?  There are a lot of people who will do
old-style video transfers at very reasonable prices.  I can recommend Guy
Spiller (www.guyspiller.com) who has a Marconi line-scanning telecine.

Still, if you get an old-style video transfer you're stuck with interlace
artifacts and pulldown artifacts that you won't have from a digital scan.

The problem is that very few of the digital scanning systems will work 
properly scanning a print or reversal original.  The Kinetta does lovely
work from a reversal original but few other machines will.

What kind of telecine do you want?  There are a lot of people who will do
old-style video transfers at very reasonable prices.  I can recommend Guy
Spiller (www.guyspiller.comhttp://www.guyspiller.com) who has a Marconi 
line-scanning telecine.

Still, if you get an old-style video transfer you're stuck with interlace
artifacts and pulldown artifacts that you won't have from a digital scan.

The problem is that very few of the digital scanning systems will work
properly scanning a print or reversal original.  The Kinetta does lovely
work from a reversal original but few other machines will.
