I'm a bit late on this thread, but quite a few of my films were done primarily on optical printers.


Fallen Flags - various techniques ... edited in camera on the oxberry optical printer using Brian Eno's oblique strategies at every transition to determine effect, technique, and next shot in the edit (image choice and duration)... i saw this film as an improvisation on the optical printer.

3part Harmony: composition in RGB #1 - colour separation 3 passes edited in camera on an oxberry optical printer - this was the opposite of an improvisation on the printer as it was meticulously planned out.

Knowledge of Good and Evil - another optical printer improvisation using oblique strategies

Mechanical Memory - was done on a JK optical printer

Turning was edited in camera and done on a JK optical printer (not many effects though)

What is the best work for understanding the cinematic potential in optical printing?  Are there any texts that could be included?  I'm asking for my own enlightenment and to take my own OP work to another level, but I might also try to put together a public screening at some point.
