Springtime is upon us. That being said, now is the time to clean out those closets, garages, attics and spare bedrooms. When you come upon your old home movie videos , photos, and slides you need to think about having those memories transferred to a playable DVD format, external drive or CD. Don’t forget about those record albums and cassette tapes. At Mayrath Video Solutions we convert those also.
This blog is about preparing your photos or slides to be archived or having a video slide show made the easiest way possible.
Too many times we have heard “we have thousands of photos and do not have time to go thru them and sort them out”. I tell customers that the easy way to prepare is get 3 to 400 photos at a time and while watching TV or sitting out in the backyard soaking and breathing in the springtime, go thru your photos throwing away doubles and sorting them into years.
When these 3 to 400 are done we will take them and scan to jpeg, sort them into folders by years, events, etc. however you want them to be archived. We will then upload them in an external Flash drive, 
SD card, CD, or External Hard Drive 
. Now, since we have already saved the folders by years in the drive, the next time you do 3 or 400 you do the same process as before organizing and throwing away what you do not want. Now we just insert the new 3 or 400 jpegs into the existing folders or add folders if needed back into that same drive that we originally loaded the 1st batch of photos. 
We also can make a 15 to 20 minute video slide show presentation complete with music background out of your scanned photos. These are great for Wedding Rehearsal dinner backdrops, family gatherings, birthdays and corporate events.
Preparing your photos or slides this way takes the pressure off of doing this task in a few days and makes it easy for the customer allowing them to take as much time as they like . Thanks and look for our next blog in a few weeks, Bill
