This weekly segment is where I dig deep into my archives to present footage that without YouTube would otherwise go unshared. This is episode 7.

Source material for this material ranges all the way from Super 8 reel, VHS, 8mm Camcorder, Hi-8, Digital 8 and MiniDV Camcorder.

It’s funny how everyone “played up” to video cameras when they were a new concept. These days everyone has one in their pocket and it’s no surprise when someone starts filming, but back in the late 80’s we went ape for this new technology!
