![]() Motion pictures in the first half of the 20th century were shot on large rolls of film that were 35 millimeters wide (35mm). Here’s a little history on this unique film format. Now that we’re warmed up, let’s set the stage for talking about those 8mm films you have gathering dust. "8 Minute Abs” are what you start doing every January 1st and forget about one week later. “8mm” is a sadistic blockbuster featuring old home movies, with Nicholas Cage playing the hero. As nobody once said, “Don’t h8, self-educ8!” Now, if you’ve got eight minutes to spare, I think we can sort it out and reassure you that you can identify and safely bring all that classic footage into the digital age to share with generations to come. With all those family memories trapped and fading on an expired format, what to do? What do you have? Are these old films still good? How do you watch or show your old movies? How does one transfer an 8mm movie film to digital? Can Super8 even be converted to digital video formats? The same can go for stumbling across those old 8 millimeter (8mm) films in your attic. Delicious to watch, but possibly terrifying to be behind the wheel. Vehicles crossing paths at high speed means there could be an accident at any moment. ![]() If you’ve ever seen a car race on a figure-8 track, it’s a whole lot of chaos.
