Hi all
Budding Spielbergs read on...
Who here has ever filmed their own super 8 film and had it exhibited at a super 8 film exhibition or festival? It's own up time.
Tell us about your experiences. What was your film about? Did it feature cowboys and pudding? What was the audience response? Did anyone famous see your film?
cheers Peter

As a teenager, I made a 200ft reel of animated cartoons featuring my very own, stickman-type hero with the unlikely name of "Jacker" (don't ask...) - and one day had that reel shown to my highschool class by a teacher. There were giggles and guffaws throughout the show and at the end, everyone applauded me.
Sadly, though, the reel was lost shortly after that. I don't know how or where/when... but I just could never find it again. Real bummer, after all the work I had doing the stop-motion thing.
Only one of my cartoons (which was on a separate 50ft reel) survives to this day...
