Idea & Help Wanted: Mike Jittlov / The Wizard Of Speed & Time

I’ve been building up quite a collection of Mike Jittlov films in the last few years, including a few of his shorts on 16mm as well as laserdisc releases of The Wizard Of Speed & Time feature. Anyone fancy collaborating, contributing to or advising on a preservation project? I spoke to Mike on the phone last year and it’s highly unlikely we’ll see an official release of any of his films anytime soon.

If anyone has recommendations for places in or near London that transfer 16mm to 2K for a reasonable price, I’d much appreciate it - one of the short films is beginning to smell a bit vinegary so probably can’t be projected anymore.

Poita might know where you could get your film transferred.

I could kick myself for letting that LD get away. I once returned a slightly defective copy and the store was never able to get me a replacement. Must have been a very small production run.
