One film, with tow bases! |
Blog dedicated to Super-8, a film gauge of more than half a century's old, which has a lot to say, both artistically and technically, in the midst of the digital age. OPINIONS ARE STRICTLY PERSONAL.

16 MM "METEOR": ONE FILM, TWO BASES
Now that I have finished ordering the film archive of features in Super-8, and before dealing with the extensive 35mm archive, I an starting with the 16mm archive, a long overdue task.
Reviewing "Meteor", which I keep in a big film reel, I discover that this anamorphic positive, half of the film is in polyester base with good color but the other half is in faded Eastman triacetate base, which I will have to send to Italy for treatment with the ORS chemical substractive system ; at the same time Movie Magnetic will apply the magnetic stripse for the sound in Spanish (the optical track is in English).
I check this kind of 16 mm features, in big reels, not with a xenon projector. I check with the Fumeo 9271 VIP 1.500 with 2.000 meters reels arms, very cheap to run, with halogen lamp.
