16mm

Post-Processing of 16mm from Pedal :) from mike ambs ☂ on Vimeo.

A few days ago I spent the afternoon at Pro8mm in Burbank – I was able to watch them develop / process / telecine / whatever-you-call-it the 16mm footage from the film.

It’s been ever a year since the footage was taken, because of that, I lost the blue channel on a few of the reels – but they managed to recreate most of the info that was lost. The footage turned out really beautiful – it felt so good to put in the film’s fimeline and see it side by side with the HD footage. Here’s a few quick still-frames:

Sorry this post is so short, but last night Amanda and I managed to map out 70% of the film, in a much more scene-by-scene structure then we ever had before, so I have lots of writing to do today.
