Felicitaciones!!! Muy pedagógica la explicación en la diferencia de la espiral en manera de rejilla y la espiral plana que encapsula las burbujas afectando el revelado de la película.
Thanks for the video, if would have been nice and more comprehensive to see that thereafer they were getting transferred onto a spool and then played on a projector.
I thought about it but, I cross processed the film as negative. As I mentioned in the video I used chemicals I already had at home. The film can still be projected, but it would be a negative image. If I get the right chemistry at some point I will project the film.
You're the only one I've found online who addresses this great need. I also use the Yankee tank system and I'm thinking one reel could be trimmed down to fit Super 8 eliminating the need for a custom made reel but I could be wrong. Have you ever tried this? I've developed Super 8 via the so-called "spaghetti" method but it wastes too much developer and ruins too much film. P.S. Do you sell your custom made reel?
Yeah, not a lot of people are whiling to spend hours of their time processing a few feet of Super 8. In my opinion as you can see I think it is a good way to process some film once in a while to test cameras and stuff. I'm working on a video about time lapses and I used this method to shoot some time lapses, so in some cases it is all you need. Some people trimmed the Paterson reel to accommodate 110 or 16mm film. So the idea has been around for a while. I tried to modify the Yankee reel but S8 is so small that I decided to change my approach. It may be possible, I just wanted to keep my reel the way it is since I use it to process all the formats it can handle. I sell several accessories for S8 and 16mm cameras, the reason for me to not be selling the reel yet is because I would have to do more experimentation. I bought a Yankee Clipper II since it is more common and I found the center column was not the same size. That complicates things, because I would have to buy the tanks, make sure the part fit, then sell them. That involves spending unnecessary money on shipping. I'm going to buy another tank exactly like the one I own to see if I can rule similar tanks are exactly the same, then I could sell the reel only. Thanks for your interest and don't be afraid to experiment.
@@TheCinematographyLab Thanks much for the reply. I like to shoot old 8mm and develop double 8 & Super 8 exposed found film. Double 8 is easy to do in the Yankee tank so I guess I'll stay with it. Since the film is 16mm and split one gets 10 feet of film per tank run. I use Diafine developer and the process is fast. Developing my own 8mm film saves me about $40-$50 per roll and I bypass a lot of shipping hassle. Thanks again.
@@dalehammond1749 No problem. I agree, Double 8 is much easier and you twice as much footage processed every time. I have always used D-76 to process my film. Now that you mentioned Diafine I read about it and you got me interested. I'll have to give a try. Thanks.

Gracias Helman, me alegra que se haya entendido el concepto.
Nice idea. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks bro!
great stuff.
Thanks!
