  2. What is a 16mm film 16 mm film is a type of film used for recording moving images using a camera. 16mm refers to the width of the negative strip. It is a silent film because there is no microphone on the cameras.

  3. How the cameras work The cameras are wind up. Some of the cameras are different but the one which I used was a Bolex. The cameras are clockwork. You wind it up every time you want to film. You have to make sure you do this because otherwise it will stop winding in mid shot, possibly ruining that shot for you. The camera on the right is able to have 3 different types of lens. (the three circles at the front of the camera) . They can be moved around by lifting a lever and then twisting it round.

  4. How to load a 16mm film To load a 16 mm film into the camera you first take the side panel off . Then you take the 16mm film out of the packet. You get about 5 inches out of the film, you put the reel onto the top part of the camera. Then feed the little bit of film the way that the arrow is facing, you then let it go through as you feed it through and out the other side making sure it goes in the way of the arrow. You then put the bit of the film onto the other reel you have in the bottom part of the camera. You then press the record button and see if it all flows through nicely. Once you are happy that it will all work you can put the side panel back onto the camera

  5. How to edit on a 16mm film To edit on a 16mm film, you have to first get it developed. You can then just look through the negative and pick out what bits you want in the final film. A steenbeck machine makes editing a lot easier , you load the film onto it and you can then choose to watch all of the footage together, then cut certain parts out, you can also edit by hand, by scratching out parts of a captured image on a 16mm film strip, to judge where you are on the film there are 12 digit numbers all along the film in order for you to be able to tell where you are. And find parts if you need to add them back in, to cut by hand you use a thing called a splicer which is used to cut and then stick back together 16mm film.
