film all black

[jelittle]

I shot a roll of super8 film on a Kodak Ektasound 130 and had it developed, but the film came back all black. I was shooting a concert at a nightclub, but there were some lights up. I'm confused why the film came back all black and was hoping someone might know - does my camera shoot very very poorly in low light? could the film itself have been bad? could the film have been accidentally overexposed if I loaded or unloaded it incorrectly? Hopefully someone can help!

well its one of two things.
Either you camera is broken
or there wasnt enough light at the gig to expose
anything.

You can test your camera easilly enough - put the lightmeter on AUTO and put a fresh roll of film in it and film something during the day.

If that comes out black then you either left your lens cap on or the camera is broken.

If it doesnt then there wasnt enough light at the concert.
