Yeah could have been earlier. I had the camera between 1972 and 1975, and the label on this reel of film had fallen off, so I took a bit of a guess.

It does mate.

Yup lucky I went along with her to film it.

You're welcome :-)

Hey look, it's da boss !!!. How ya doin boss, and why are you here lol ? Anyway, the reason there's no sound is this. I bought my Super 8 Cine camera in 1972. Back then, there were no Super 8 camera's with a microphone, because there was no such thing as Super 8 film that had a magnetic audio strip attached to it, so, no sound. In 1973, Kodak produced the first Super 8 Cine camera with a microphone, along with the first ever rolls of Super 8 cine film with a magnetic audio strip. The film rolls with the audio strip could still be used in my camera, and I did in fact buy one. I filmed a karate session in our local band hall, and after it was done and the film had been processed, I knew a guy with the right recording equipment, so the karate instructor and I went to the guys place, and as the film was running, the instructor narrated onto the audio strip. Somewhere down the line, somebody put some Winifred Atwell piano on it. I'm looking to isolate that and keep the narration. A single Super 8 cartridge of film for the camera only recorded for 3 minutes and 20 seconds, so you ran out, FAST, and you had to plan the shots as editing was a pain in the arse with cement edits and plastic edit strip. Editing machines caused a lot of damage to films. Also, Super 8 films only recorded in 18 FPS, hence the graininess. Camera phones today can record in 60 FPS and up. Super 8 film was a bugger to work with as it was touchy when it came to sunlight and angles of shooting. It reacted differently all the time so you had to compensate. It didn't like low light or the dark, even with a high wattage output filming lamp. It was finickity stuff to work with, but that's what we had back in the day. I'm probably going to add some sound effects soon to these films, Australian bush sounds, indistinct voices chattering etc, road traffic noise, that sort of thing. The gal in the thumbnail, and at the start of the film, was my girlfriend. We were married the following year, and she's the reason I moved to England, with her lol. The other guys are very well know Australian musicians from famous bands, and the guy who falls off the cliff at the end, Alan Oloman, was a great mate of mine. We worked together musically. The taller thin gal was his wife Jenny. They're both no longer with us, both passed away. They had a baby son and daughter who never even knew this footage existed. I also hadn't seen these movies for 50 years. I sent this one to them a couple of days ago. You can imagine the surprise after more than half a century. So there it is boss.
