Film and videotape are two entirely seperate mediums.
One thing that irks me to no end is when people say “filming” something when using video gear instead of “recording” or “taping”.
It is like Rush with his redundant “audio sound bytes”. Maybe he does that to tweak some people.
I thought that film was just the video portion, and videotape was both picture and sound on the same medium.
16mm film was still in use by most TV stations for news until the early '80s and it is commom among camera crews to still say "film it." However it bothers me when I see a film shot in say the 1950s or 60s and everyone online calls it an old "video."
