Edit Super 8!
|
Super eight is simple to edit, you just cut and splice!
Here are the usual tools of the trade: |
The Splicer |
|
|
Used for cutting and joining the film. These can be "cement"
type which use a solvent, "tape" type which use an adhesive
tape and "thermal" type which use heat (either conventional or
ultrasonic) to weld the film together. Each type has its own pros and
cons. |
The Viewer |
|
|
This is basically a small projector with in-built screen and allows scenes to be
cranked through forwards or backwards usually by hand. There are
loads of truly horrible units so try to find one that doesn't scratch the
film and gives a bright image too. |
Frame Counter |
|
|
Some viewers may include one of these, but are a handy gadget
for checking times and measuring out scenes for cutting. |
