    I was D.P. (but not camera operator) for a super-8 music video in the early 90's.

    I happened upon a VHS copy of a VHS copy of it and thought it might be fun to post some stills.

    Notice the black versus white foregrounds and backgrounds, and the black on black train scene,
    this type of contrast is more difficult to achieve with on digital video.

    I've switched to a second set of 3 pictures from the same music video.

    Keep in mind that these images are NOWHERE near what they look like on the original film. I think they were telecined with an out of calibration film tube telecine (I forget if they were re-transferred on a rank or not, I was not involved in the editing).

    Definitely at least a forth generation image, perhaps 5th generation, and the last two generations were on VHS, then that was captured and outputed to a 4x6 print, and that was scanned into the computer, and jpeg'd for good measure.

    I still like the look.

    Should I assume you saw it as a demo at Pro 8mm?

    I'll bump this topic since I've posted the photos on the forum.
