Digitize and Backup Videos

March 25, 2022

Did you know that film, tape, and disks degrade until the memories they hold are lost forever? Consider securing your video memories by converting old home movies to digital format. What a wonderful gift for your whole family! For Super 8 or 8mm film I recommend The Digital Convert in Chicago, IL for its top-quality work that they do in house. For VHS, Compact VHS, Hi-8 and Mini DV format I recommend The Print Refinery in Vernon Hills, IL for its top-quality work that they do in house.

Once the conversion is finished, you can have a family “viewing” party or play the movies in the background at your next family gathering. Everyone will love being the stars of the show. I’ll bet you get requests for copies! Remember to include your videos in your monthly backup using the 3, 2, 1 backup rule. Always keep 3 copies of your photos and videos, on 2 different media, with 1 stored off site.
