Old Film Video Filter

Maybe I don't know where to find this. Does Old Film Video Filter have a corresponding audio Old Film sound effect? In words, I don't know how to describe it, but it would be the sound you would hear during a silent film display where you can hear the sound of the sprocket pulling the film through the projector in an old film projector...make sense? If not in Video Studio 10+, then is there a sound effect site that might have it?

Hi All

Very new to this site and loving it a lot.

There is quite a nice Projector sound effect here http://www.pacdv.com/sounds/machine_sounds.html

Haven't been here very long but learnt an awful lot already and more every day.

Yes, there is a sound effect (audio) of an old projector. I had it with VS8 or VS9 & copied to VS10+.....

My boxed VS10+ should be here soon, if I can't find that audio track in there, I will look for moving it over from 9 or check out that linked sound site. Thanks again.

I have a 13 second clip of the film going into the projector.
I recorded it myself when I did my Super 8 conversions
VS9: Super 8 film conversions I used it with the 5-4-3-2-1 sample video, faded out and brought in music or other manufactured background noise.

I can email you a zip copy 1.83 MB if you want to email me.

I will install and check out VS10+ when it finally gets here and proceed from there...thanks for the offer.

Just to learn how to do this, I was trying to do a black and white fade to color technique and used the old film filter (using a simple cross fade). I noticed that the filter settings, even if all are set to zero, you still get the old film scratches. I was thinking that if all settings were at zero, you would at least get a black and white image. Yes, I can use a photo edit program to get the correct effect, I was just wondering if that was a bug, or, actual correct behavior with that effect..

Why not use the monochome filter for b&w?

Yup, that's a better procedure.

Another is to use the Hue & Saturation filter with the saturation turned all the way down. The advantage of this method is that it lets you transition from B&W to color, or vice versa, by using keyframes.

I sometimes use this to move from a flashback (mono) to the present (color).
