Filmmaker flashback

I know a bunch of my grade-school/high-school classmates are gathered over on Facebook. I'm not on there. But I have something to share with them. If you were at Stuart Scott Public School in Newmarket Ontario in 1986 (87?), you may be somewhere in this clip.

I used to make stop-motion films for fun. Back in grade 6, I took my super-8 movie camera to school and shot a reel of film. Here's what we cranked out -- with some extra stuff at the end of the reel, 'cuz I had film left over.

I got the transfer done here in Halifax at Copy Cat Digital. I'm not terribly impressed with the transfer, actually. There's a guy in Ontario who uses a frame-accurate direct-to-digital transfer, so I think I'm going to send my films out there for another attempt at getting a cleaner copy. Then, perhaps, I'll add sound and repost this and more.
