Hey Pete,
Might be worth checking to see if any of your titles have already been digitized. I know
Once Upon a Punch Card was loaded to YouTube a number of years ago (could be worth
checking with the uploader to see if they have a high quality version available if
you'd like a personal copy). Might save having to re-invent the wheel.
I like to pick up the occasional 16mm computer film off eBay for my own use, but I've
also converted a couple to digital using the low tech 'camera aimed at screen'
method. Actually, it was my iPhone on a tripod running software that allowed for frame
rate adjustment AND color shifting to take the red out of the film and boost the faded
hues. -Cory
