i started the super 8 competition straight 8 in 1999. thousands of short films have been made according to the strict rules of straight 8: shoot the entire film on one cartridge of super 8mm cine film. shooting in story order. with one single take of each shot. no grading, no editing, no post. send your original soundtrack separately. we process your film and line up your sound to the first frame of picture. and the first time you see your film is at its packed premiere - like the ones we've held at cannes film and advertising festivals for over a decade
straight 8 is open to anyone anywhere: straight8.net
straight 8 is a division of seven productions
my own most recent straight 8 film is here:
