	8 mm film - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The film spools actually contain a 16 mm film with twice as many perforations along each edge than normal 16 mm film, which is only exposed along half of its width.
		When the film reaches its end in the takeup spool, the camera is opened and the spools in the camera are flipped and swapped (the design of the spool hole ensures that this happens properly) and the same film is exposed along the side of the film left unexposed on the first loading.
		During processing, the film is split down the middle, resulting in two lengths of 8 mm film, each with a single row of perforations along one edge, so fitting four times as many frames in the same amount of 16 mm film.

	Super 8 mm film - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Super 8mm film is a motion picture film format that was developed in the 1960s and released on the market in 1965 by Eastman Kodak as an improvement of the older 8mm home movie format.
		The film is 8mm wide, exactly the same as the older standard 8mm film, and retains standard 8's single perforations, but the dimensions of the perforations are reduced, allowing the exposed area to be increased in size.
		The sound film had a magnetic soundtrack, and came in larger cartridges than the original so as to accommodate a longer film path (required for smoothing the film movement before it reached the recording head), and a second aperture for the recording head.

	8mm Film Gauges
		Double 8mm, called such because the film is 16mm's wide, with perforations that are identical in size and pitch to that of 16mm film....although with an extra perforation which is required since the 8mm frame is 1/4th that of a 16mm frame.
		After processing, the film is slit down the middle yielding two lengths of 8mm width movie film, which are spliced together in their order of the first half in front, yielding a total length of projection footage in either 50ft(from 25ft spools), 100ft(from 50ft spools...now long discontinued in use), and 200ft (from 100ft spools).
		This film gauge was referred to as Standard 8mm or 8mm for many years until Super 8mm came along in 1964, which after it was referred to as Regular 8mm here in the USA to separate it from Super 8mm.

		Film stocks are reversal films which become direct positives through processing.
		After processing, the film is split in half to produce an 8mm projection film which is 8mm wide and 50 ft. long.
		A word of caution: although the original width is 16mm, 16mm movie film cannot be used in your 8mm camera.

	PPS Brief History of 8mm Film
		This film gauge was clearly based on its 16mm big brother, and had an additional sprocket hole added, with a frame size 1/4th that of 16mm film.
		Also, another similar format known as Double Super 8mm uses a principle similar to that of Double Regular 8mm, that is, film that is 16mm wide but with the Super 8 perforations and run thru the camera exposing each half, then to be slit and joined after processing.
		This film is dimensionally identical to that of Kodak's Super 8mm, but on a polyester/mylar base versus Kodak(& others that made Super 8mm film) use of Triacetate filmbase.

	Political Film Society - 8MM
		However, Welles assumes the film to be real and tries to track down the young woman, starting with the Missing Persons Bureau in Cleveland and ending up in the film capitals of Hollywood and New York.
		The tagline of the film is "You can’t prepare for where the truth will take you," meaning that Welles learns that snuff films do exist, and that the world of S&M snuff films is primarily for men who lust for full control of women.
		Directed by Joe Schumacher, 8MM is film noir in which the hero triumphs but the sickness of the porn industry seems beyond anything that filmviewers may want to know about.

		Super 8 film and Double 8mm filmmaking seems to be best suited to the solo filmmaker who can enjoy the subject of the film and the making of it.
		The dye stability of Kodachrome 40 and 25 is far superior to other color films because Kodachrome 40 and 25 is essentially a layered, fine grained fl and white emulsion to which highly stable dyes are coupled during processing.
		Super 8 and 8mm filmmakers have maintained a strong interest in fl and white film, particularly for the gritty grain of Tri-X and the platinum-surfaced, mid-range tones of Plus-X. Kodak offers two excellent fl and white Super 8 reversal (direct projection) films.

		The film cannot be wound back (at least not very far) for double exposure work.
		Standard 8 cameras are often clockwork (you don't have to worry about batteries but you can't film for as long in one take.) The film is 16mm wide and is run through the camera twice and then split down the middle during processing.

		In about 1967 I decided to add sound to my films and bought a projector which allowed the tape from a regular reel-to-reel taperecorder to pass through the speed mechanism of the projector.
		It was capable of maintaining approximate synchronism for a 7 inch half hour film; not good enough for lip synch.
		Now I was able to lip synch, and over the next ten years filmed and added sound to 15 7-in reels of standard-8.

	Regular 8mm (Double 8mm) Film vs. 16mm Film (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Since a Regular 8mm movie frame is half the width, it is also half the height of a 16mm film frame.
		To answer your second question.....when filming in Double 8mm (Regular 8mm) and using a spool loading camera (which over 75% ever made are), generally the first few feet and final few feet or less is used as loading leader.
		The remaining 25% or so of cameras made used Double 8mm Film Magazines which are loadable in full light, but still contain only 25ft of movie film, thus you have to flip over the magazine to film down the remaining 25ft of film.

	Filmtracks: Eight Millimeter (Mychael Danna)
		Danna uses various electronic acoustics to ominously foreshadow the coming investigation, including an interesting effect at the very start that simulates the turning of a film reel that is whipping around after reaching its end.
		The sympathetic portions of the score, including the quick theme for Cindy during track five and the partial relief of the final two tracks, are the true gems of this score, reminding the listeners and audience of the sympathetic family side of the story.
		Although hinting at the native North African music in small portions previously, the film's shift of setting to Hollywood is announced by a sudden and extremely heavy Moroccan influence.
