Convert and share your home movies from the past January 10th, 2012 / Comments: 0 This month we will share ideas for organizing your memories. For today’s tip, let’s look at those boxes of videos you have tucked away, in a box, possibly under the stairs or worse, in a garage. Analog Video Formats are Dying – Preserve Those Video Memories! Did you know that the average life span of a VHS tape is eight years? Wasn’t it about eight years ago that you last recorded anything on a VHS tape? Well, now is as good of time as any to send those tapes in before additional time passes. Pixorial can digitize your home movies so that you can have a DVD and a digital copy online. You can quickly go from having a box of videos that no one can watch, to having a lifetime of videos that you can literally share and enjoy from your phone, iPad, Tablet or browser. Share and Own Editable Videos Created by You and Others While you are thinking about it, what if you had your friends and relatives do the same? Imagine if you had videos of the same memories but from different perspectives? One of Pixorial’s great features is our SHARE ORIGINAL button. With this feature, you can take a video of any length and share it with everyone who was there or would appreciate the footage (privately of course). By just adding an email address, Pixorial will send a link to a video that can be edited, owned and shared by your friends and family. Sharing makes it possible for others to select the moments that they liked best and edit at will. With Pixorial, you can share entire lengths of video and allow your circle of friends or relatives to own, edit and share their favorite parts. Once you start sharing your video library, ask others to share with you as well. Best part, videos shared using SHARE ORIGINAL don’t count against your storage allotment, so share away! In this video, filmmaker, Brennen Brown, demonstrates the importance of preserving and converting old video.
