Earlier this year I purchased a 45 years old Super 8 camera in order to document some of my travels. This is my latest trip to New York with Erik Djurklou, shot entirely on Super 8 film.

Shot on Canon 310XL using Kodak Vision3 50D film.

Music by the wonderful George Harrison.
The world always seems a friendly place on Super 8 for some reason.
Perhaps its because film captures color better so it feels more colorful, and its a bit blurry, smooth, and shaky so it gives that dreamlike vibe you know but idk
As there’s a vintage effect on all Super 8, it reminds us of the Good Old Days. 🤠
Film tends to capture warmer more pastel colors vs digital's more saturated and colder color palette.
101% agreed
In a way I find this kind of comforting... I find it's easy to nostalgically look at old films and long to return to a time when the world had a certain vibe. This kind of demonstrates that a big part of that feeling is just an illusion created by the combination of film, lens, filter and frame rate.
Somehow it makes me feel more appreciative of the time we live in. That it's not necessarily better or worse than any time since the 1960s really... We're just viewing those times, almost literally, filtered through rose tinted glasses.
A bit of George Harrison doesn't hurt either...
Probably the freshest, cleanist, glitziest masterpiece of Super 8 I've ever seen. One that still msnages to keep that grainy quality.
the light moving across the screen 0:18 is insane
When i see this video i feel back in 1970's era,awsome bro!
awesome, thanks man!
@@ChristianRanby hey thank you!! you inspired me to buy a super 8 and i have one now!
When it started with George Harrison I knew this would be good
Everything is so beautiful and welcoming in this video. Almost like you can go up to everybody in it and hug them but they wouldn't mind. The power of Super 8!
Wow that's a good compliment, thank you!!
I love how you worded this, that’s it!!!
the most romanticized view of new york ever
Probably the best film published on TH-cam!
agree
Ditto! Great selection of music as well!
@@sfilpz probably definitely
love it! super 8 makes anything look so aesthetically pleasing. even in 2017 new york looks kinda vintage through a super 8 camera. really wish I could get my hands on one, but the film seems realllyyy expensive and so does the processing :( i'm already throwing a ton of money away on 35mm every month lol
I know this comment is old but you can get a super 8 for like $60 on Etsy, I just bought a 16mm Kodak, it looks like this but the frames are slower.
OLD TIMEZ tapes are expensive though...
You can always edit the videos to make it seem like it was shot on super 8
@@oldttt7283 I was surprised to see how cheap some super 8 cameras are. But if you take in account that every roll of super 8 film is like 3 minutes and a half, for a price of minimum 30$ per roll, everyone can say that it's pretty expensive, considering that back in the day it would cost much less.
I keep finding myself coming back to this video, it’s like reminiscing a past that isn’t yours and this wasn’t taken too long ago. Good job!
This video just sealed the deal on me buying a super 8. Great work man!
Thank you for giving me some nostalgic new york with George Harrison attached. Needed to see this in a time like this!
Ahhh like stumbling upon a Super 8 fresh pond of water after a long walk in the YT desert! Beautiful Super 8 movie! Love love! George Harrison is the perfect choice of music too! :)
Such a sweet film. Just lovely!
love the music choice!!!
Love this!
I love watching super 8 films like these. It’s kinda of cool getting insight into someone else’s life.. it feels so real and in the moment. Beautiful really
Nice scan. The 1 WTC may have been a giveaway that it's 2017 but boy it looked like the swinging sixties! And to think that the Mad Men 60s look was back in the relatively happier pre-pandemic 2010s and now the 30s/70s look is back in the TikTok crazy 2020s, this wouldn't look out of place among the legit 60s-70s super 8 films! This is one of the best films I have seen on super 8 and one of the best content I've ever seen on TH-cam!
quite possibly my favorite video on youtube
I LOVE this video, probably my favourite trip-vlog i have ever seen.
It looks so cheerful and i nearly get jealous about this wonderful friendship. Everything looks so joyful, colourful, surreal and yet real at the same time.
It's not just the same, it also the music and compostion, the interaction with your friend in between and strangers, what makes this video special.
I've been in the US recently for the very first time and HOW MUCH i miss having friends that are just into recording and exploring like me, you can't imagine.
This video transports me into a life i might never have.
dont know why this came in my recommended 3 years later. But im glad it did.
excelente! y con esa cancion de George Harrison es perfecto el video! te felicito
super 8 is such a vibe
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! THIS IS AMAZING
I'm in love with the guy
Me too
the music did everything for this video, love it !
you got me by the second i heard WHAT IS LIFE by george harrison ahhh
Cool footage! Thanks for sharing! Love Super 8!
Very nice, Christian!
One of my favorites videos now, so nice man!
Great shooting!
Excellent scan, great choice of font & music. Overall a high quality video.
this feels like you're adverising your friend. I'm sold!
Great looking modern day super8. Love it!
Things filmed on Super 8 > Literally any other camera

Incredible.
So inspiring! The mood that super 8 gives is amazing!
been binge watching super 8 videos, this is still my favorite I love this so much just bought a super 8
The most random shit I’ve seen. Yet I loved every second of it. Awesome video.
Wonderful video I can watch it every day I love it❤️. And the song fits perfectly with the super 8 video.😍😍
This video was the reason why I bought a Super 8 camera.
this was awesome!! what a beautiful video
Awesome job, and since I got interested in Super 8 (which is since a few days) and watched some footage, I have to agree with others, the world does look prettier in Super 8. I also dropped the hammer and decided to purchase a Super 8 camera, it will go well with my 35 mm Nikons and Zorki4 camera. But highest respect for your work, the footage you shot is amazing!!
very very cool... shots were clean and balanced... great job
Loved it! The city looks beautiful on this camera, and the music choice is just right. I hope to be able to go anytime soon
this is awesome! i feel like so nostalgia watching this video

Excellent film and the perfect music to go with it! I have a Beulieu super 8 that has been sitting on a shelf in my office for years. Your film just motivated me to go out and shoot some Super 8. Keep up the good work. Greetings from James in San Francisco.
Hey! Loved this film.

Seeing this now, and I must say very very cool short! Love it! Quality is nice too, did you modify the colors, edited it ? Or it was like this?

What was your color pipeline for this?
Great work
so cool 😁😁
love everything about this!! soo good!did you shoot 2 cartridges and then cut it all together in post?
This is hands down my favorite Super 8 video I've watched on TH-cam. I'm currently debating whether or not to but a Canon 310XL or a Canon 514XL. I'd like to know your opinion if you have one. What specific digital scan process did you select on the Gauge Film Lab Website? Also I was wondering what type of settings you used and if you have any tips/techniques for recording on super 8. I subscribed man, great work on the film man!
FILM GEEK Thank you! I really appreciate it! I have both the 310 and the 514. The 514 has some nice extra features, but the motor in mine completely broke down on me. That’s why I shot this with my 310. In my experience you can’t really trust the viewfinder when setting focus so when shooting I just estimate the distance to set focus. Another tip would be to clean the inside of the camera before you load it to keep dust away. Best of luck man!
I have a Canon 514XL-S and works great for me :) which one did you end up getting?
that was really nice
Great footage in glorious Super 8. I used Gauge Films myself for footage I shot over the summer. Quality is superb.
Lovely. The quality is surprisingly good. what camera do you use?
Love
The second I realised you used what is my life by George Harrison I subscribed!
George is the man!
@@ChristianRanby hell he is! Love your content!
This could easily be the official video clip for "What Is Life". Just saying
this is so gorgeous
