What is this video effect where there's a square on the left side of the frame?

Question

I see this effect all the time used in music videos, and I always ask myself:

  • What is this effect?
  • What is the square on the left?
  • Is it the same effect?

I know it is a vintage camera effect but I want to know what causes this effect. Is it the camera? or maybe the film?

Answer

This is a Super 8 effect! It can be done in Adobe Premiere. The rectangular shape on the left of the shot is a simulated film perforation.

(A nitpick: I see the preview image on the YouTube video looks more like the format of regular 8mm, not Super 8mm)
