So many people still believe, (or at least try to get others to believe) you need to produce a negative to make a film, it has been said that-
"doing film these days is expensive especially doing a negative and takes many sales to break even".
It use to take Derann to sell around 10 15/20 copies of films before a profit was made so nothing new there.
Perhaps someone's doing it wrong? When copying digital to film, using the right process, (as is done with 16mm) you really do, do away with the process of making a negative.
I refer to you to one of my earlier posts here,
New insert for Waterloo in scope
Eight minutes of 16mm in scope with sound, half the price of a new super 8 200 footer and not a negative in site, and I mean half the price. if it can be done on 16 it can be done on 8 and it is being done on 8.
CHC sold a few trailers recently using the negative free process, picture perfect image and the usual A1 modern digital sound, mono or stereo, flat or scope.
So trailers for a start price of £150 on a 200 footer with BIN of 224? Carry on then.
In the new year I'll do my own, no not a release for sale, just one for myself, when it's done, i'll, I'll be back. No negative required
Wheres the source? I dont know and I dont care.
