Next fall I'll be teaching 16mm for the first time in 12 years, because our intro to filmmaking course (at the U of Alabama) is having to shift from super-8 to 16. (It was difficult to teach super-8 when cameras became difficult to obtain, but it became IMPOSSIBLE to teach it when film stock became unavailable locally.) I'm hopelessly out of touch with contemporary texts on 16mm filmmaking. Last time I looked Lenny Lipton's was THE book. What are folks using now? I'd be interested in hearing about both books that are specific to 16mm and other, more general intros to filmmaking. ---------- Tout passe, tout casse, tout lasse.
