I spent the afternoon at Pro8mm.com in Burbank - I was able to watch them develop / process / whatever-you-call-it the 16mm footage from the film.

It's been a long time since the footage was taken, because of that, I lost the blue channel on a few of the reels - but they managed to recreate the info that was lost.

The footage turned out beautiful - I can't wait to add it to the timeline and start to play around with it!!

    nice! how much 16mm did you shoot in total?

    telecine is crazy expensive! thank god seattle has a place for diy super 8 and 16mm telecine that's very affordable.

    Hey Leslie :) Just 4 rolls - it's about 15 minutes or so of film, we had plans to shoot more but when the crew left I had no-idea how to work the 16mm camera... but there's a lot of beautiful stuff to work with.

    And yes, telecine is a bit expensive... kinda' didn't really have that money to be spending but I didn't want to wait much longer. I had already lost most of the blue channel.

    This reminds me a bit of my days in pro video (of sorts) in Chicago. I never worked with film, but all those buttons and knobs and waveforms bring back vivid memories of colour-correcting on an incredibly dated FAST linear editing system. Sheesh!

    Looking brilliant! And even though I always enjoy your choice of music on your stuff, I especially liked your use of "Jesse James" on this one. I collect film scores and it's fun to find favourites in out-of-the-way projects like yours. Thanks for this!

    Hey Dave :) I know, I wanted to play around with all those bit turn-dials and buttons! I'm glad we both love that soundtrack - I think it's beautiful. Thanks for the comment.

    "He also had a condition that was referred to as "granulated eyelids" and it caused him to blink more than usual as if he found creation slightly more than he could accept."
  • mike ambs ☂ plus 10 months ago
    I love that quote - I love just about everything in that film. The narration is so perfect.
