We encourage you to submit your 8mm, Super 8, 16mm home movies by Monday, September 20 to have them digitized for FREE by Pro8mm, with priority for first-time Home Movie Day participants. If your film has already been digitized, please submit no later than Thursday, September 30. There will be participatory games and prize giveaways, as well as other surprises. Participation is free for those contributing material as well as those who just want to watch—and we encourage you to ask us about how to keep your own home movies safe for future generations.
