  • Super 8 Magazine #8: Test of the ORWO NC500 film

    Here are the topics of the new issue. The magazine is bilingual English/German.

    Two tests on a new film: ORWO NC500
    When does new color negative film material ever come on the market? Now it's here, the NC500 in 16mm, which can't call itself ORWO. Our testers from the U.S. and Germany put the film under the microscope. Is the development better in ECN-2 or in C-41? How does the NC500 differ from Kodak films? Is the material suitable for self-development?

    X-Ray Vision
    Artist Max de Esteban from Spain has taken a close look at movie cameras and projectors. He breaks them down into layers, sprays them white, photographs them, and finally assembles them into special X-ray images. Why does he do this?

    Andreas Marschall: Filmmaker on the Dark Side
    Monsters, myths and neuroses – the film world of Andreas Marschall from Berlin. He has already shot over 100 music videos, many of them on Super 8, and several feature films. But it all started with record covers and film posters that he drew. An interview about his work and the latest project, which was created in Russia. On Fomapan.

    Thriller on 150 Super-8 cartridges
    A Super 8 film in the cinema? Emil Ink from the USA has realized just that. A flick made on 150 cartridges in Super 8 format – and for which he was able to enlist a well-known U.S. actor. The thriller is now being released in the USA.

    Another feature film: Single-8
    Who remembers the 2011 feature film Super 8, directed by J.J. Abrams and produced by Steven Spielberg? Something similar has now been made in Japan: the feature film Single-8, which also features scenes that were actually shot on Single-8. And a story with young people shooting with Single-8 sound movie cameras in 1978.

    Fight the cassette jam!
    What to do when the film doesn't run properly through the Super-8 cartridge?
