Super 8 film in Sync with Iphone Audio

[Super8Production]

The sound will be an issue for us when shooting our short film, but I think we will just take a referens audiotrack on set, and then just re-do all the sound in the editing. So a lot of foley and ADR. :D

I usually shoot super 8 on my Elmo 1012XL use a Canon 7D as a sound reference.Slate it.Then do a dub over on Final Cut Pro.

When shooting with audio in mind, is crystal sync really necessary? And why is installing the sync so expensive?

[BTVProductions1982]

I am a little curious on this, but can or do you convert a Kodak Instamatic M24 model to crystal sync or single-system?

[pro8mm]

@BTVProductions1982 We currently only convert the Canon 814 XLS, Canon 1014 XLS and Beaulieu 4008 to crystal sync

[Austo1989]

Can you guys convert the Canon 814 Auto Zoom Electronic to Crystal sync?

[pro8mm]

@Austo1989 unfortunately we can't modify the 814 AZ for crystal sync

[AndyBobMcKee]

this really has nothing do do with the iphone, it is just doing what any device that can record sound would do. keeping a super 8 at 24 is pretty impressive though

[pro8mm]

Hi. We convert both the 1014 XLS and the 814 XLS to crystal sync. We can modify your camera or your can purchase one from us with the mod. We also do the MAX 8 16 x 9 mods for these and we offer a discount when both are done at the same time. Call 818-848-5522 for more info.

This is good. I wonder how does one of those cameras get a crystal sync motor. Is it already in the camera or was it added by Pro8mm?  I suppose getting an IPhone wasn't too hard. Show this to everyone to prove that film is far from finished in this day and age.

[pro8mm]

@3baxcb hi, the crystal module is a modification we can add to the camera. We can modify the Canon 1014 XLS and the Beaulieu 4008 to have the crystal controlled motor. Check out pro8mm.com or call in to find out more

[3baxcb]

@pro8mm I suppose you haven't ever added a crystal module to a Nizo or Elmo. Is it that Canon and Beaulieu are the best suited to getting cystal sync or could any Super 8 camera get fit?

[pro8mm]

@3baxcb We can only do it to those 2 cameras because we don't know the internal mechanics of other cameras. It takes quite a lot of research and testing to figure out how the other cameras work and whether a crystal module will fit/work in them, and there hasn't been a high enough demand for it.

[3baxcb]

@pro8mm Alright, I just want to know that Pro8mm cartridges can be loaded and run with Nizo, Elmo or any other Super 8mm camera.

[3baxcb]

@pro8mm I'm just curious to know if pro8mm ever modified the Canon 1014 (regular, grey covered type), Canon 814 auto zoom or the Canon 814 XLS with crystal-sync motor.

[GWSFilms]

Awesome.

You should have given us all a song :)

[goodnewsfilms7]

what frame rate was the camera set at in order to sync?

what frame rate is the i phone?

thank you!

[pro8mm]

@goodnewsfilms7 the camera shoots at 24 frames a second, and was also transferred at 24 frames a second. However, it's played back at 23.98 because of the digital conversion. the iphone app we used was the sound memo recorder. i don't know what framerate it records in. you could ask a sound mixer that question because it's something that s/he would have to keep. sorry i don't know the answer

[KRAFTWERK2K6]

looks good! I bet you had to sync it only once in the timeline ;)

[pro8mm]

Thanx

Great monologue!
