Rewinding a Betacam SP Tape

This is just a throwaway video. I captured this while rewinding a Betacam SP tape of part 1 of "Once Upon a Time in the Hamptons" that I had finished transferring. Of course, this video has been edited because there's no reason to upload 8 minutes of a tape being rewound.

I can’t tell you how much I love this effect. I tried recreating it in Vegas once, I might upload it??? It’s a bit tedious but man is it fun to toy with. I wish this effect was easily available as some kind of like, standalone program that you can put a video into and you can mess with key frames to get it just right and stuff.

Wow!!! Smurf bear voices to vintage doll voices 😂 (1:16 & 1:50)

Why did Betacam players put gray bars over dropouts?
