Today we are going to talk about identifying, converting and managing videos and home movies. Videos are of course part of our collection, and we feel is very important for us to do an episode just on videos – so we brought in and expert to explore this topic with us: Adam Pratt from Chaos to Memories.
Regular listeners might remember Adam from previous episodes, and you might also remember that we love his courses*, about which we talked in episode 67. He has added new ones in the meantime and we highly encourage you to check them out.
Adam loves people, photography, and a good story. After working at Adobe for 22 years he founded Chaos to Memories which is a professional photo and video preservation studio in Chicago. He’s also the author of the best-selling book, Declutter Your Photo Life about which we talked in episode 92.
Today, we will talk about videos and movies specifically because photos and movies are of course similar but different.
We are not only discussing and listing what to gather when you want to tackle this project, we also talk about preserving - which is the conversion from old to new media (check out episode 42) - and decluttering.
Finally, we chat about the fun part once everything is organised. And yes, we agree with Adam in saying that we recommend culling the unnecessary and unneeded videos, sorting them and adding some metadata before starting to create projects. It will be so much easier and so much fun!
