Wouldn't it be easier to just add the "old movie" effect in post rather than
go through the trouble to film in 8mm, develop and then transfer (which is
no easy task to do correctly) to digital just to get the look of a bad 8mm
film transfer?
It would still give the same results, probably better if done right.
But I guess then they couldn't charge extra? Or maybe they are selling the
fact that film might last longer as a storage medium than tape and dvd?
Interesting post, irregardless.
Thanks Bill for the info.
