My friends and I drove to Vancouver, BC from Calgary, AB to see Explosions In The Sky in May 2007. After that we went to Kelowna, BC to see a friend.

I shot a couple rolls of Super 8 (Ektachrome 64T) of our trip and put this together after a basic video transfer.

Music: Day Five by Explosions In The Sky from the album The Rescue (2005)

  • Was this filmed on super8 or rendered to look like it? Didn't the film cost a LOT?

  • @Maxtion This was shot on Super 8 film. Ektachrome 64T was the stock I used. I believe I shot three cartridges at 24 fps for about 2.5 minutes of film each. As for the costs, I spent around $18 on each cartridge, $17 for processing and $20 on shipping costs.

    The costs definitely add up quickly so I usually only shoot Super 8 on certain occasions. With costs in mind, I definitely think a lot about what shots are worth shooting and pick them carefully.

  • @skajorinne That is a lot of costs. They're definitely worth it, though, this video is amazing, amazing, amazing. Thanks for sticking footage and memories to such a beautiful piece of art like this song.

  • yay for no dislikes

  • This is an amazing video. I like how you captured your friendship in a Super 8. It gives a sense of nostalgia. The song you picked from Explosions in the Sky makes me think of wonder and excitement and using the super 8, it makes me think of what it was like in younger days. Kudos.

  • I love the drive from Calgary to Vancouver! I wish i'd been able to go to that concert. I missed Caspian this year as well:(

  • Quality vid. Can't wait to see Canada one day.

  • Wow this is really great, you guys did a wonderful job! Great song choice also, I love EITS. =)

  • BC is beautiful. Makes me want to go back to it. PS you guys seem fun
