In this day of DSLR is it relevant to shoot 16mm film?

In this installment of ‘How Do’ we explore shooting an “anti-commercial,” a product driven video which doesn’t necessarily overstate the brand, with surf filmmaker John Lynch and editor Darrin Roberts. In other words, an anti-commercial uses a bit of charm and story telling to sell a product in use without being too in your face about it. Both John and Darrin share their thoughts as they explain how they used their film ABROAD as a way to show how PENTAX are making competing DSLR cameras. Hint: These anti-commercials are also a great way to get a project financed in a different way then most are used to.

Thanks to Tyler of Ojos for this interview and blog post. Looking forward to seeing Ojos grow into the future. Eyes towards progress!
