So, I just bought myself a good old Super 8 (from eBay). Got it working, got a new battery and film, but aren't sure what to do with it now. I'm going to make a film, of some variety, (no shit, sherlock) but I'm not sure if I should start by just doing random things to get used to the camera, or to jump right in. I'm a bit of a film fanatic, and thought I'd like to try my hand at it.
So:
A: Any ideas as what I should do? I live near both a reasonably large city and a lot of countryside, I was thinking a contrast of the two. Just something short, pure self indulgence with angles and such.
B: Anyone know how long roughly normal Super 8 films last? (Length in time, and feet?)
C: Any tips for what I should/ shouldn't do?
