The cheapest way to do this is find an old cheapo projector and point it at your bedroom wall.
Then get a chepo video camera and point it at the same wall - in roughly the same place.
Put the film in the projector and run it, starting the video camera soon afterwards. At some stage remember to close the bedroom curtains so not too much light comes through. Also, at some stage, get the projector picture roughly in focus.
Hey presto! Now you've got the knack, offer the service to others and charge a fortune.
Alternatively, bring or post your old cine to The Video Factory. We have been told by those who had some done elsewhere that we give incomparable results.
But remember two golden rules:
- Don't throw any old cine away just because you can't make out what's on the film - our cameras are so sensitive they can often bring out the picture you can't see by eye.
- Decide on the order of the reels before giving them to us.
Record or register your reels - we always record the returned video (and you get the original cine back, too).
