@anders@merveilles.town Here's an example of how the xfer came out! The footage is old enough that it was 18 fps format. No audio on source. I asked for the footage to NOT be cleaned, so you can see that, here. Quick and dirty scan. The snippets here are from 16mm film, but I've cut down this example to be a quarter of the resolution that I got back from NarrowGauge. It still roughly shows the quality. I'm happy with the results. I did an extremely rough five-minute pass in Blender to adjust gain (brightness/contrast and a bit of color). Not shown: loads of footage that, sadly, was just captured super blurry in camera. But a few scenes were nice, like these. A bunch of white people living a suburban ~1960s existence, pretty much. https://gregori.studio/merv/filmxfer/example.mp4

@anders@merveilles.town FYI -- I spoke to the person in charge of The Negative Space, and it turns out they focus on contemporary filmmaking, so they don't do archival work like this. I'm definitely keeping them in mind for the future if I have new-film processing needs. They did send me to a different place in CA called Narrow Gauge Films, and after speaking with them they seem like a perfect fit. Boxing up 15 (!) reels of film for them now and shipping it off. Will report back (in a couple weeks?) with a sample of the transfer work. https://www.narrowgaugefilms.com/

@anders@merveilles.town @neauoire@merveilles.town They look great - thanks so much for the research and recommendation! I'll give them a call or whatever and will probably send them a box of film soon. :)

Anyone have a referral to a scanning company who can take some 8mm and 16mm film reels and give me back fairly good quality digital files? I see that there are several out there which offer this service, so I'm looking for referrals that you've tried. The material is typical old family stuff, not professional / archival grade work, so it doesn't have to be ultra perfect. I'm kinda behind on the project, so turnaround time might be the most important factor. Feel free to forward to film friends (alliteration alert). Thanks!

@ritualdust@merveilles.town started out skeptical because of the garry's mod graphics, ended up pretty sure this is the movie of the year.

@spiralganglion@merveilles.town Really nice project! Fun. After poking around for a while, the “&” overlays and sound were a cool discovery. (and fwiw, if I didn’t know anything about ink & switch, this thing would really make me want to learn more.)

Like the Voyager golden record, but a static copy of the whole Internet, encoded in DNA and encased in amber. Wrapped in a radio beacon with a small blue-green blinking light and placed on the back side of the moon. So that whenever they get here, they will know of the Eden we squandered.
