Thanks Raymond! 
that's my dilemma, I didn't keep track of which rolls had the daylight footage (didn't think of the push option till after I'd shot them all) & a good few of them are mixed daylight / nighttime ,,,

 Hello Moira,
If you suspect the low-light footage is underexposed, I would definitely push the film as Pip suggests, EXCEPT for those (mixed) rolls with daylight footage, for in that case you would be pushing that footage as well, which would turn out overexposed.
Cheers,r.

Subject: [Frameworks] Phytography book
 This is an update for all of you who are interested in phytography, a method that taps into the ability of plants to render their own image on photographic emulsion. This method was developed by Karel Doing and has inspired many filmmakers and  photographers to work with this simple, yet versatile and multipurpose technique. The book will unite 11 experimental filmmakers and photographers who have worked intensively with phytography. The book will be handmade at the London Centre for Book Arts and will be printed in a limited edition of 100 copies. You can pre-order the book and support the project by choosing one of the perks such as online workshops, original phytographic prints and more. Books are selling fast, get your copy today!

Subject: [Frameworks] tri-x (super 8) - to push or not to push?
Hey folks,
I just shot a gig on Tri-X Super 8 - very low light, my meter needle was hovering between f 1.4 & being in the red. A friend with a lightmeter checked the levels for me & it seems like I might have been just about ok, but I'm  concerned about the image being underexposed.
Some of the rolls also have daylight footage on them, of the musicians soundchecking - the meter needle was in or around f 5.6 for those shots.
I'm wondering whether I should ask the lab to push one stop - any thoughts?
We're going to do a 2K scan of the developed footage, for digital edit.

cheers Moira

Hey Moira,Since you are editing in digital, why not develop it as a negative? In that case it should be 400ASA instead of 200, so you gain a stop. - Pip
