So, you were spring cleaning and found that dusty box of videotape memories in the back of your closet or garage. You no longer have a VCR and can’t bear the thought of losing those precious video memories. What do you do? Get your tapes captured and digitized by archive professionals.
Step 1: Dust off your tapes and separate home videos from hollywood films.
Step 2: Count your home videos, noting format. Ex: 45 VHS, 5 VHS-C, 12 MiniDV.
Step 3: Call, Text or Email Kouv.org, get a quote, and schedule tape drop off.
Step 4: (optional) – If you want your tapes captured in a certain order, number them. If not, we will number them for you so you can know which digital video file matches which tape.
Step 5: Drop off your tapes and let out a sigh of relief. Your tapes are being preserved in a digital format. You may provide an external hard drive or thumb drive at this time.
Step 6: If you like, Kouv.org will create a complimentary private digital dropbox, where you can view and download videos as we work on your project. You can expect to see 5-10 videos appear per day.
Step 7: When the capture is complete, we will set a pick-up appointment.
That’s It! You captured your memories and can share files with your family and friends.
Step 8: (optional) We also offer editing services if you want to combine revised footage into shorter videos with your explicit guidance.
