Also, Jackie says "store videotapes in a cool, dry place. Keep boxes of videotapes off the floor." #sfhistorydays #hmdbayarea #hmd2020 #video #homemovies

Jackie is now telling us "How to care for your #homemovies - video edition." Tips include: "If a videotape has a record tab, remove it. If it has a record slider, slide it to 'safe.'" Also store videos vertically and in their original boxes! #sfhistorydays #hmdbayarea #hmd2020

Now playing as part of today's #hmdbayarea virtual program: Liz Keim's "Swing Movie," shot at @exploratorium in the 1980s on Super 8 film. Keim narrates the film. #sfhistorydays #hmdbayarea #hmd2020
