8 Flick


     "8 Flick" - New from experimental Super-8 project!





"8 Flick" is part of a new experimental series of short and rather raw films created using vintage Super 8 film cameras. The film clips, transferred to digital files are then edited and enhanced with sound added.
I love the quality of film shot on super 8 film stock and am further intrigued with seeing how far this already great grainy and glitchy imagery can be pushed electronically. Pairing this imagery with electronically created music feels like a natural match!! Sound is by B-Complex (aka Matus Lenicky from Bratislava, Slovakia.) The track is " Black Eternity". Check out B-Complex on last.fm at last.fm/music/B-Complex


Your feedback is welcome-please let me know what you feel or think about this work! Thanks and I hope you enjoy it!! - David
