Super8Filmaker Magazine-Balloon Cover...

[sanderpander]

Are there any good tricks in the "Handy household film gadgets" article? I'm pretty much in a DIY situation - everything(tripods, film, lighting etc.) costs a fortune for my standards. Helpful hints are always welcome here! [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

um er, well, I leafed through the magazine and found MANY good articles. I have to admit though, I wasn't impressed by the household gadgets.

They were a bit too simplistic. I'm still trying to figure out the best way to get the information out.

Scanning a whole magazine would probably take way too much memory.

I'll probably start reviewing parts of the magazine as time permits.

Well, maybe then just list the ones you thought were good. <BLOCKQUOTE><font size=2 face="verdana, sans-serif">quote:</font><table border="0" width="90%" bgcolor="#333333" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0"><tr><td width="100%"><table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" bgcolor="#FF9900"><tr><td width="100%" bgcolor="#DDDDDD"><font size=2 face="verdana, sans-serif"> I have to admit though, I wasn't impressed by the household gadgets.

That I can imagine. But aren't they supposed to be? [img]graemlins/wonder.gif[/img]

Rather than list the rather short short short list of ones that I thought were useful, I'll just put th whole list.

OK, I'm glancing over the list and It's probably one of the few poor articles I've ever seen in the S8 filmmaker magazines!

I will take the 10-15 minutes to do this, but I don't have the time right now!

Sorry I don't have the time right now.

Seeing that cover almost brought tears to my eyes. I remember waiting each month for "Super-8 Filmmaker" to arrive. My brother and I would fight over who got to read it first. I found my box of Super-8 Filmmaker mags several years back, but then they got lost in a move.

Lost in a move!

An archive lost. In honor of your experience I've made the Super-8 filmmaker magazine a forum new topic "button".

Just thought I'd bump this. [img]wink.gif[/img]

Off point, but you may find this interesting.A year or so ago, Video maker changed the logo of the magazine.

The actual magazine name that replaced Super 8 Filmaker was called Moving Images.It had a picture of a guy on one side shooting with a Beaulieu and another guy with a JVC single tube video camera.Maybe it was the same guy and the picture was a composite?It was an attempt to reach both super 8 film and video people.It only lasted one issue and the magazine went belly up.

I have that Moving Images issue. It works great as a substitute Dartboard. [img]cool.gif[/img]
