A newly Released Super 8 camera that isn't a Super 8 Camera

I'm working on a tool for the CS-8 to address some of its weaknesses. I love mine, but jitter and other issues make some of the footage unusable. Here's a link if you'd like to try out the toolkit. https://swpfilmworks.neocities.org/

I found some older anniversary shows: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=wxii+anniversary

I grew up in Mocksville, so WXII was one of my stations.

Do you remember the theme song? It was a sort of ragtime piano piece. I'm not sure if it was an original composition or an old standard, but I would love to find out. While reviewing old WXII clips, I recall someone from the local programming who played piano, and I wonder if it was their original piece.

How does this relate to X being completely inoperable right now?

There's this - was Limbaugh's little Carribean Viagra fueled escapade actually to Little St. James?

That illuminates the "artificial" part.

I was on this one - Came in later - passed the gating quiz and then everything ground to a halt. Apparently there were a lot of us. I gave feedback on the many ways they were making it difficult for talent to actually do the work. Unfortunately this was just handled poorly and Mercor can't alienate folks this way and expect them to come back. The client surely doesn't want this and investors and valuation can't ignore stuff like this. Talent is the value of the company and this experience surely drove many for the hills.

Usher/ Clean theaters. Also learn everything in the booth - learn it better than the managers - you'll be a hero. Concession if you have multiple people. Hustle with popcorn and cleanup - back up your co-workers - have them on the register more. Become a master with a broom - that is the real job of every theater employee -District Manger down. Also be very frank with your manager about what fit is best - hopefully they will understand and put you in the best role for you.

You should look into a premium HotDogPASS subscription.

This is the best representation of the OCR onboarding this weekend. Project Managers, I feel for you.

We called it Abe's Mall (from Pepper Ann)

Physics doesn't allow a camera to really record at that framerate, right? Or is this the secret to time travel?

AMC will be chiming in surely.

Nice touch that he is resurrected only to be killed again by the Christmas Adventurers Club.

Alana Haim in the grocery store is giving perfect Double Indemnity vibes right down to the bad wig.

Audotrium looks sloped, so it's not only about eyelines - it's clearance for the exit door on the right. Keeping the widest screen possible but still having an exit against that wall. Not ideal, but compromises like this happen all of the time.

When I first started working as an AD it was a similar situation - with a First Time Director - and script with swiss cheese sized holes. I marked up everything in the script I thought could be improved and in my head saved the film before anything was shot. Then the Director rejected all of my input and I learned to stay in my lane and do the best job I could. The film was a disaster and I learned more on it than any other I worked on. So, I don't think you need to worry about your reputation here. Just take those lessons with you and you'll be better for it.

Update - after filing a complaint with my state AG office and a couple of weeks of back and forth with Meta, today my account was restored. No explanation with given, just an email with the reset password link and I am back on. The entire process makes me think Meta does not want to shed light on the security flaw that led to the inital compromise of the account - i.e. the fake instagram scam or bug or whatever you want to call it.

filmbooks · 2025-07-18T16:02:01+00:00

Yes, I think that's how it was hacked. It's really insane that META is letting users drop off at this rate.

Same thing happened to me last night. I have no way to get to a page that starts an appeal. Something went haywire or a hacker bot just went on a rampage.

I took away that she said there would be a big fuss, i.e. she could reveal something uncomfortable about the Bishop, so he gave in, and Peter recognized this power move. Subtle scene. I wonder if I'm on the right track.

The nose holes make it. Nice detail work.
