This is a Super8 sound film made in 1976.
Assignment: 1 week to come up with an idea, find locations, film, edit & add titles (and the film shows it)!
Film processing in 1976 took several days so the movie is short on script and has some scenes missing that were never filmed. As usual the film was shot out of order and in the dialog it is assumed that all of the scenes are there per script!
The original filming and editing took 20 hours and was shot on 190 feet of film. Finished, it ran 8min 10sec. The new version runs just 6min 22sec with no important scenes left out and has adjustments for color noise, camera shake and color correction. Additionally some image zooms, music, titles and sound effects were added.
Synchronizing the sound was another lengthy process because it was created as a wav file by a second pass of the film on a projector that captures the sound only.
