DIGITIZATION
My first time formally learning about digitization was when I worked at my college's Digital film lab as an apprentice. There, I got hands-on experience working with 16-millimeter film projection, direct animation, and visual and audio transfers of analog film. The more I got acquainted with the process, the more I looked forward to arriving to my shifts at the lab - the following year, even being promoted to student manager.
DFL - Videography, Editing, Sound Design (Excluding Music) Shot and edited on 16mm black and white film. DFL is a short film that provides a glimpse of what an editing session at the DFL looked like.
Since graduating college and leaving the DFL, I've carried my fondness for digitization back to New York. Living back home during postgrad, I rediscovered stacks of VHS and VHS-C tapes that I knew I had to revitalize. I've been able to back up most of those home films and offer services to others to do the same. The process has proved itself rewarding and sentimental in ways that have only strengthened my affinity for analog video.
