(my little brother and I. I think that may have been an Easter dress)After last week's class on Home Videos I decided to watch some home videos this weekend while I was home all alone.
It was so much fun pulling out the old tapes. I had to find an old VCR hidden in the basement, and then figure out how on earth to connect the ancient machine to the TV. But, the effort was worth it!
Even though I watched them by myself, at some points I was laughing so hard, I cried. Sadly, I realized that some of the tapes are
deteriorating.This led me to my new goal: To transfer the VHS tapes onto
DVD's. Then the brilliant idea struck me: I could do this as Christmas gifts for my whole family!
So, first things first. Does anybody have any idea how to transfer VHS to DVD?!
My dad did this to all our homes movies like two yeara go. It was so great! I know you can get really pricey software to do it or I think in the no sh zone in the media lab in the library they can help you/teach you how to do it!
ReplyDeleteSo did my dad. Allen's camera (in Provo) did all of ours for us. Priceless!
ReplyDeleteI have no idea how to do that, but I think it's a neat idea for a gift! I know BYU has lots of pretty amazing tools you can rent/borrow for a time from them.
