First, right here’s Colcord’s notes on the way it was made:
I pre-recorded and edited the dialogue digitally, then shot the optical sound in an Auricon CM-72 digital camera, then re-shot the photographs on the identical movie in a spring-wind H16 Bolex.
Lenses: Switar 10mm & 25mm
Inventory: Tri-X reversal
I used to be initially going to chop all in-camera, however I ended up doing a little re-ordering of pictures within the edit. The sound is a combination of the unique digital recording and the optical sound. For the reason that digital camera didn’t have a sync motor, I ended up having to cut up the digital audio at any pause within the voice observe to re-establish sync.
