Notes from May 2009

KEM still on the market

Several local filmmakers have stopped by to look at the KEM, one a native, another a recent transplant. I'm actually a little surprised to see a sustained interest (even if marginal) for cutting 16mm. Of course, I'm delighted to see such interests percolating. A few out-of-towners have called or emailed asking about the KEM, but I'll wait. I would prefer to sell the machine to a local maker. I hate to let go of the machine, but having three flatbeds is a little absurd, not to mention they're space hogs. Still working with Paul to see when he can visit Portland for a bit of service on the Steenbecks. Hopefully, June will work for his schedule, though he was suggesting August.
