	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).
		It wasn't until Super 8mm was introduced in late 1964 and officially on the market for 1965 that simple drop in loading without the need to have to expose a second side of the film, came onto the scene and changed drastically the entire 8mm filmmaking movement.

	KODAK: Super 8mm Film General Tips
		It is the lack of sufficient lubrication on the film that often causes unsteady projection.
		A 50-foot roll of super 8 or 8mm movie film is long enough for an average of 20 to 24 scenes.
		By filming from a low angle and using the sky as a background, or by shooting from a high angle toward the ground or water, you keep a lot of distracting elements out of your backgrounds.

	Standard 8 vs. Super 8
		When the film is processed, it is then also split right down the middle and joined at the ends to form 50 feet of 8mm film.
		You do not have to load Standard 8mm film in darkness, just be sensible and load it in slightly subdued light (i.e under a tree, not out in the sun.) The outer layers of film on the spool protect the inner ones from light whilst the film is being loaded.
		That is Super 8mm film, again sealed in a handy cartridge, but this time the spools are on top of each other rather than mounted on the same axle as in Super 8.

	Film-8mm
		The standard 8 mm film format was developed by the Eastman Kodak company during the Great Depression and released on the market in 1932 to create a home movie format less expensive than 16 mm.
		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.
		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 8mm & 8mm Movie film Lubrication
		What's most important is the films are as clean as possible (there will always be the occassional bit of fluff or hair now and then.....so always keep a can of dust off near the projector, and blow it into the gate from the top to dislodge the offensive particle while projecting!).
		Kodak stopped lubricating their 8mm films after processing back in 1984, and to the best of my knowledge there isn't any lab processing 8mm films that automatically lubricates them after processing as a normal part of their service.
		To build your own film cleaning setup, get a set of old film rewinds (or new ones if you can afford it), and mount these on a 2" x 4" x 4ft board (it can be as short as 3ft or as long as 5ft if you have the space).

	Using Super 8 Double 8mm Film Stock (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		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.
		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.

		Films may be transferred through telecine to video and are then imported into computer based editing systems such as Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro or Avid.
		However, the film loaded in a Single-8 cartridge is exactly the same as Super 8 (with the exception of being made of a thinner and stronger polyester base, rather than the acetate base of Super 8 film), and can be viewed in any Super 8 projector after processing.

	Super 8mm Cartridge Specifications and Film Notch Codes and Specifications for Super 8mm Motion Picture Films
		Super 8mm motion picture film was introduced in late 1964, with official worldwide release in 1965.
		The film is wound emulsion inward, and the film travels around a small rotating roller where it reverses itself to emulsion outward (or upward) just prior to exiting the upper part of the Super 8mm cartridge to the filmgate aperture.
		The SOUND 200ft Super 8mm cartridge is unique in that it employs an internally sprung co-axel takeup reels, interlinked to allow film takeup, and also reverse direction for full film rewind for lap dissolve and superimpositions, as well as film retrieval from the filmgate aperture stage for machine processing.

		However, as Super 8's market share continued to wane over the 80s and drugstores discontinued selling and devloping reels of film, the cheap fixed-lens Bell and Howell XL got thrown in the closet to collect dust.
		The fact that a 50-foot roll of Super 8 film only lasts 3 minutes and 20 seconds means you also have to take footage sparingly.
		I mail my film out to laboratories for developing; it's not any more expensive than it used to be at the drugstore and they get it back to you a lot quicker, too.
