Re: [Frameworks] Super 8 transfer
Apologies. Fail to note that I was writing to Jeff on Frameworks. bh On Nov 1, 2013, at 2:15 PM, robert harris wrote: Yr. welcome, Jeff. Words are genuine. Your work is good. I've actually only done SD transfers with Cinelab, which were reasonably priced and fine for what they are. I like the people there, and they do a lot of work for my students, so I thought I'd say something nice. The person asking said they had very high standards thought immediately of you. Still working on the Ika project material. Think I'll get some $ together, hopefully do the work in January. Who does the actual transfer work at 22nd. st. I have to assume you endorse their skills, if they are not you. Bob On Nov 1, 2013, at 12:08 AM, Jeff Kreines wrote: Thanks for the kind words, Robert.

I just used http://spectrafilmandvideo.com/ And was very happy. I think they use a spirit with a super 8 gate.

Regards, Peter Kinetta Archival recently rescanned film for a theatrical documentary that had been originally done at Spectra, and the filmmakers were quite astounded at the difference. (I haven’t yet seen the Spectra version, so I am only repeating what they told me.) There’s a big difference between HD telecine and 3,3K scanning, about 5x more resolution. But it depends what your needs are, and how large the image will be projected. Sent from my iPhone On 01/11/2013, at 3:08 PM, Jeff Kreines j...@kinetta.com wrote: Thanks for the kind words, Robert.

Re: [Frameworks] Super 8 transfer
Hi Lyra, I have been very pleased with the super-8 transfers done for me by Light Press, here in Seattle: http://lightpress.tv/super-8mm/ There telecine process works very well with cement splices. Only problem is that, for the moment, I think there's a slow down because they were using Alpha Cine labs to prep the film. So with the demise of Alpha in Seattle, they are in the process of finding a new partner to prep the films. I strongly recommend their work, for sure. talk to you later, Reed On 31 Oct 2013, at 2:48 PM, Robert Harris wrote: Get a KINETTA transfer. Contact Jeff Kreines on this list.
