I got my new Filmo Sportster circa 1936 double run eight film camera today. I bought it off ebay for 10 bucks. The double run eight actually takes film that is 16mm wide. You shoot one side of the film and then you flip over the core and you shoot the other half! HA! So cool! So Analog! The little camera is a wind up camera so no need for batteries! It has multiple speeds and makes a really awesome film projector type sound when you are actually shooting something. I’m considering shooting some reversal film (so you don’t have to have it processed its like a polaroid but for film) on it and then using a 16mm projector to project it on a wall and then filming that with my mini DV camera and then posting it on the weeb. One very excited boy here.

I also got some hand written letters in the mail which was pretty cool considering its so much easier to send email. Film Cameras and hand written letters, so analog. Hence the “Analog” day.

On another not I’m working on a film about Tom Thomson. I’m just a lowly PA but I’m learning quite a bit!
