I met this quirky character who decided to film the London Olympics 2012 Women Cycling Race, Putney in black and white film! Edward Nowill was shooting the road race in 8mm black and white which he adapted from a Kodak type 7363 standard 8 (R8) format, he specialises in reperforated 16mm RAW film using his own technique from the top of his home made yellow trailer attached to his bike !
Edward's aim is to make available in small quantities film stocks
which are not normally available as 8mm. This has proved to be quite popular both with private customers and with commercial concerns. It is his ambition to make available any 16mm acetate based film as regular 8mm.
