"All That Trash" was our proposed version of "All That Jazz," which later morphed into the film "Rotten to the Core." Boston Sketchbook, 1979. #super8mm #reg8mm #8mm #homemovies #makingmovies #movies #film #filming #cinema #alllthatjazz #1970s #twentiethcentury
I have some VHS home movies that I managed to capture as MP4 files. I'm not sure what to do with them I was hoping there would be a simple way to mark "chapters" in each MP4 and burn to DVD, but I haven't found a solution. It looks like the simplest way is to edit the videos in something like flow blade, but I'll need to have 1 project/export file per chapter, and then use DeVeDe to setup chapters. Seems convoluted to split up the MP4 only to put it back together again though. I have like 2 dozen videos.
Anyone know a better workflow?
"Home movies [...] ancestors of the videos we shot on camcorders and now capture on cell phones. We might think of each home movie as a pixel in a giant collective documentary spanning a hundred years, endless films picturing family, friends, travels, rituals and celebrations."

How to DIE: A Brief Analysis of Adult Cartoon Finales
CW: ending spoilers
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jVIrJO2Byws
How do you end your #AdultAnimation? Or maybe ~safely~ end it? Tariq takes a look at the endings for some classic shows like #Bojack, #TheBoondocks, #HomeMovies, #Futurama (a few of them), and #KingOfTheHill. Even some almost-endings for #TheSimpsons.
The Bojack one still guts me. I cant listen to Mr Blue without tearing up. But the Futurama ones still get me too.

#Google just announced that going forward, any account not logged into for two years gets deleted.
This means huge amounts of rare or unique #video is about to disappear from #YouTube as accounts get flagged as inactive, such as when the user dies. Families' #HomeMovies (often posted by an older relative for their family's benefit), historical footage, rare #television clips, etc. What an incalculable loss to human #history and culture!
If there are videos important to you on someone else's video channel, find a way to download them. And if you have rare #media of historical importance, consider leaving it to institutional #archives or lending it to archives for digital preservation.
