How to Digitize Your Old Home Movies on a Mac

This is a three-part series. In the first post, I’ll discuss the equipment and other considerations necessary for converting old home movies into digital videos on a modern-day Mac computer. I’ll also share what I decided to buy for the project and why.

Part 2 will explain how to do the initial conversion using my particular setup. And Part 3 will walk you through the process I used to clean up the captured footage.
