    Film Secrets Super Eight Page in Film Costumes & Festivals Directory

        

    The Super 8MM film format was developed by Kodak in 1965 to replace regular 8mm.Regular 8 had the reputation for being very unstable. It didnt get exposed properly through the film gate.Super 8 solved this problem by putting a pressure plate in the film cartridge.People in the 60s and 70s used super 8 to record jerky home movies.This format is the second most popular format next to 35mm. The reason for this is because loading a film cartridge for your super 8 camera involves no threading of the camera. This makes it easy for anyone to use. Besides being easy, its also very cheap.Today it costs about $20 US or $28 cdn to buy and process a full 3.5 minute 50 foot roll of colour Super 8 film.
