remember each one was made with no editing or post-production on a single cartridge of super 8. soundtracks were made 'blind' and the first time the makers saw even their own work was at the premiere.  the max length for straight 8 shootout films is 2minutes 30seconds as the base rate is 24fps.

(for straight 8's annual competition it's 3minutes 20seconds / 18fps)
