one super 8 cartridge no editing
2010 call for entries - it's now'ish or never'ish
and... the 2010 entry map
time and tide wait for no man. the days are lengthening in the northern hemisphere so the clock's ticking
in a month it'll be too late to enter straight 8 2010 in time to deliver back to us for our 6th april deadline.
don't be put off though. the greatest inspiration usually comes quickly. in a flash even. actually it's more a question of catching it than having it. so go for it
who's entering from where and shooting on what stock?... click the map to go live
and check out five great straight 8 films each made on one of the five different types of film stocks on offer...
connections - steve oram + nick lear - 2008 - comedy - tri-x (200asa b/w reversal)
springlove - herrjaapmans - 2008 - arty - ektachrome 64t (64asa colour reversal)
robot - matthew keen - 2008 - comedy/lifestyle - plus-x (100asa b/w reversal)
ransom - will + george - 2009 - action/art - vision2 200t (200asa colour negative)
the stages - corlin stubbs - 2009 - drama - vision3 500t (500asa colour negative)
once you've enjoyed those and are inspired and have chosen your stock - head to our site and enter
you know the drill: straight 8 is open to anyone anywhere
one roll of super 8. no editing. it's raw. it's pure. you make the film you want to make
if it's great you see it - the first time - at cannes or one of a load of other superb
screenings throughout 2010 - benicassim, rushes soho shorts, raindance
and more we're waiting to confirm like guadalajara, cannes film festival (our 8th consecutive year)
which film stocks are most popular in 2010? see our film pie chart. film pie? sounds tastier than hd pie...
if you've ever thought about making a film, why not do it now?
and if you know anyone that might be tempted please forward this to them - especially if they live in antartica
let's make 2010 gr8
thanks for reading
bless cinematic freedom
straight 8
_
our main confirmed partners so far this year are kodak, rushes and soho film lab.
yes: a post house supporting an event where you can't do post.
but they create beautiful transfers of your work for us to screen.
and kodak and soho film lab do all the magic - just how does that strip of
film get the light your lens saw and transform it into a
faithful recreation of each scene that someone else can see? it's bonkers.
and they do it
we're teaming up with all sorts of people and organisations this year... so far...
the apa are coming on board with rushes and co for our cannes advertising event in june
and to spread the word to the commercials community. so big competition...
raindance are screening a selection in london and are offering 10% off their courses to our entrants
and the raindance festival is open for submissions now
shooting people are offering six months free membership to all our
entrants. shooting people are the independent filmmakers' network - a great resource to help all your cast and crew needs.
and ultimately to meet other film minded people!
