Super Eight Resources in Film Costumes & Festivals Directory
Super 8mm film continues to be a popular format for experimental or short film makers in Britain today. This is despite the difficulties of using the format and the rarity of people that stock the products or can offer more specialist services.Super 8 was a development born out of the old 8mm film that was used for the best part of 30 years to shoot home movies on. The benefits of Super 8 over Regular 8 as it was came to be known were in two main regions. Firstly the actual picture area on the film was increased as the sprockets were made smaller and the height also increased to stay in the same ratio as this increased width. Sound was also incorporated via a thin magnetic stripe which was added onto the side.
