About Home Movie Day
- Genres:
- Documentary
The Ninth International Home Movie Day will be observed around the world on Saturday, October 15. The Center for Home Movies (CHM) initiated the event as a way to highlight the cultural significance of home movies and the need to properly preserve these important artifacts. Participants are asked to bring their home movies to the IU Cinema, where equipment to project the films will be provided, including formats such as 8mm, 16mm, Super 8, VHS, and DVD films. There will be audience discussion of the films, the filmmaker, and the images shared. The event will also include special home movies from the Indiana University Archives. Home Movie Day is co-presented by the Department of Communication and Culture and the IU Cinema.
