A Flock Of Flickers – 2 Done!

Did I tell you about the online zoom meeting / webinar think that I started in February?

“You love Super 8, you are at the very beginning and don’t know much / you are in the middle and are enchanted / you want to know everything about Caffenol and ecological developing, cameras and film stock / you have experience and specific questions … let’s connect!
We meet every last Sunday of the month!
I moderate and tell and show tricks and film examples … you have the opportunity to bring in your own topic / problem / question. I am there to help.”

Check my Blog!

We had 2 meetings already, you can watch 2 snippets! It was great and fun and very … connecting. On YouTube.

More Old Films: “Country Baby”

“Country Baby”: Silke on the countryside in the middle of flowers explaining the dangers of Wühlmäuse / voles and the pleasure of taking a break in the hammock.
Thanks to the Filmuniversität Potsdam-Babelsberg (and Benjamin who is writing his master about my films!!) … I have a few more freshly scanned films now online!! The old forgotten ones …

More Old Films: “Unfelle und Nachladen”

“Unfelle und Nachladen”: untranslatable German, partly nonsense, playing with words and letters.

Old Films New Scans

Recently I had the opportunity to have several of my old almost forgotten super 8 films scanned! Very hi res and for free as part of a film studies research project. The sound is bad, taken from the ridiculously slim magnetic tape on the film … I will have to re-edit it.

Here comes the first film, a little poem in 2 words called “ABE”, from 1989 … click here!!

ORWO Worms

I’m browsing through old workshop films … There will be a little exhibition at Dresden Schmalfilmtage / Small Format Days in March and they are celebrating 60 years of super 8 hoorayyy!!! Showing a variety of films including some of my workshop group films (I gave 2-days-workshops at their festival in 5 consecutive years from 2009).
Some snippets here!

Welcome To … Kodachrome & Coffee!

Me pro on YouTube:

I would never have thought that there are still so many Kodachrome Super 8 films circulating in the world – even 35mm films – but they do! And I can develop them! Black and white negative. Unfortunately, colour is no longer possible, only Kodak could do that, and since the last lab closed more than 10 years ago, only black and white is possible.

I am Dagie Brundert, a one-woman lab in Berlin, Germany, and I can do it.

It costs 39 euros to develop a Super 8 cassette, with a discount for several. 35mm half price. In Germany plus VAT, otherwise not. Plus postage.

I’m the only one in the world who offers this service with Caffenol, an ecological coffee-based developer. Cheers!

Stuttgart Filmwinter #38: Clattering Stones and Bubbling Cells

I wave hello from the train driving me home from Stuttgart! 4 days film festival, the one and only FILMWINTER! No workshop this time for me, I had just one short film in the competition program, so it was like a mini holiday for me.

I did a kind of marathon film watching … and it felt like … an underlying subject, a subconscious commonality: pulsating nature, forces of nature, clattering stones and bubbling cells. I explain it to me: we as humans have come so far that we’re standing at the rim of the abyss, it’s going downhill with humanity or … not. It’s a decision, it’s a Rutschpartie / slide tour. Artists feel this.

PS: the catering was fantastic! Spätzle special and Laugenstangen with Nutella! Thank you!
