Sometimes you have the tool but you don’t know what job it’s for. In this video I come up with 7 ways you could use 16mm. Do you have any other ideas? I would love to hear them.

After a lengthy hiatus I am waking this blog and the associated Youtube Channel back up. Here is the new channel trailer for the youtube channel.
Why – The Contrarian in Me 2 comments
Why 16mm – Why now, sometimes I ask myself. Because,
- it is not digital
- analog film will probably not be with us for that much longer
- it looks cool
Mostly because the minute that something is being abandoned by everyone, I all of a sudden get interested.
What do you think?
What and Why Leave a comment
I got interested in 16mm film after doing lots of digital videography and then wanting to experiment with a film look. Well what better way of getting a film look than doing it with real film. I have some experience with black and white photography and dark room work. At first came 8mm, but when I found it hard to get good digital captures of 8mm I found the answer to be 16 mm. The cameras are not expensive and they seem much more robust and industrial compared to finicky, consumer grade super 8 cameras that were not made to work after 10 years. In this blog I plan to further explore 16mm and pass on what little I have learned for other folks interested. I am a confessed cheap skate so expect to find here inexpensive ways to play with analog film.
