Super 8 Handbook Now Available in the USA
By James Grahame
Just a reminder that we're distributing Juergen Lossau's brilliant Super 8 handbook on Amazon. You'll save about $20 compared to a copy shipped from the publisher in Germany.
Super 8 is a 290 page full-color hardcover guide for up-and-coming filmmakers. It covers movie camera selection and use, projection, editing (both splicing and digital), choosing the right film stock, a half dozen ways to develop film at home and much more. There's an extensive supplier list at the back, along with a list of festivals eager to screen your cinematic masterpieces.
Juergen's carefully researched text is presented in German and English (translated by yours truly), and the world class layout was designed by the same team responsible for smallformat and zoom magazines.
For more details, check out the book's product page on Amazon.com (or Amazon.de in Europe).
