“This is a short drama I shot in film school in those pre-video, “Steenbeck” years that won the Norman Jewison CNE Grand Prize along with some other awards.” – Bill Davern – filmmaker.

Bill called us to re-transfer his film as he was unhappy with the out of focus transfer done by another company…   Great work Bill, we loved your film!  Glad we could be involved with the transfer / restoration!

Pass the Cart II

A project put together by the members of the filmshooting.com forum.

Consists of 5 E64t Cartridges that have toured the world. I was fortunate enough to be involved, and this is CART #2. I shot the last film with 2 fellas in Toronto.

Had big goals for the project, but ran out of time… In the end I bucked down, set a date and convinced myself I was going to shoot it that day, make or break, no matter what. We had it all planned out, storyboarded on DSLR, and last minute the actress had to pull out as we ran out of time to shoot.

In comes plan B, shot rehearsal tests on a sony EX-1, 6 times for timing review; then rolls in the beaulieu 4008 to shoot it for real. We cut out a lot of shots which would have rounded out the toronto landscape a little better, but I was worried about it being at the end of the cart and losing a shot because I might not have the full 10′.

Ours is the last film of the 4.

Transfer Stills – David Mason

Stills from a recent 16mm transfer for David Mason. Some nice work, tricky to shoot reversal black and white. Can be very contrasty, but when handled well, it’s beautiful. Film stock: Plus-x/Tri-x.
