[Frameworks] 16mm magnetic film for audio

Hello frameworkers, I’ve been given some reels of 16mm magnetic film and was wondering if anyone knows whether it’s possible to remove the magnetic coating somehow? Have tried bleach and water which has done nothing. Thanks, Mary http://www.marystark.co.uk/

It's designed to be as hard as possible to remove the coating as possible, though you could try acetone if it's polyester-based stuff. If it's acetate, acetone will dissolve the base. --scott ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com

May not be worth the trouble.The base itself may be opaque... Try scrapping with a razor blade to see. On Fri, Mar 21, 2014 at 9:51 AM, Scott Dorsey klu...@panix.com wrote: It's designed to be as hard as possible to remove the coating as possible, though you could try acetone if it's

Thanks Scott I’ll try the acetone, that’s basically nail varnish remover? Francisco, the base is clear as I’ve scratched at it with a pin. Wondering if there are chemicals which will remove the coating like when bleach can just remove the emulsion from film, but not sure what the magnetic

The magnetic coating is barn paint. It's ground up rust in vehicle that keeps it sticking to the base. If you're looking for clear base, though, it would seem a lot easier to trade the more-expensive magfilm to someone for less-expensive clear base. --scott

Hello frameworkers, Two questions re: Ernie Gehr's Serene Velocity. anyone out there--researchers/preservationists--undertaken the mundane task of doing frame counts? are there any titles or credits on the film? Thanks in advance. I haven't had the pleasure of seeing the film in the past

Re: [Frameworks] serene velocity

The film has no titles. Ernie Gehr said the film didn't need them. As to the frames, I think he has mentioned that every stage in the zoom lens was set to four frames, but I could be wrong. Cheers. Date: Fri, 21 Mar 2014 10:03:49 -0700 From: ericthe...@gmail.com To:

Re: [Frameworks] serene velocity

I do believe there is a title card on the film. Serene Velocity written in pen on a piece of paper and photographed, placed long before the images start. Ernie Gehr was a professor of mine and once explained that he added titles like this because, while he would prefer that they not be part of the

Re: [Frameworks] serene velocity

I have had the film on rewinds and it is a four frame rhythm per each focal length. As farnas i can remember there is at least two mistakes that i notice while watching it projected. Brian On Fri, Mar 21, 2014 at 7:24 PM, Steve Polta steve.po...@gmail.com wrote: I do believe there is a title
