CNN's "Film: Not Dead Yet" – shot on Canon 7D

By Cubie King

Following our two previous DSLR pieces my co-collaborator Carlos Martinell and I decided that we wanted to do something more ambitious.

We thought it would be fascinating and fun to explore the vibrant NYC analogue film community – with our two Canon 7D cameras – and to do it creatively.  This was not a conceit, in fact quite the opposite; we hoped to show that people are indeed still working with film and doing quite well for themselves.

The rest hopefully speaks for itself.

As we move further into the digital world we hope the fundamentals of the medium are remembered and respected.
