- This is part 1 of a 4-part series from an educational film strip produced in 1977. Part 1 is entitled "Research Makes Ideas Come True".
This series was produced for use in a school environment and would have been presented using a film strip projector with which each image was manually advanced as prompted by an audio cue from an accompanying audio cassette.
For this video series I have sequenced the film strip images in sync with the accompanying audio, but I have removed the audio cue "beeps" from the soundtrack. - Розваги
The "beeps":were the coolest part of these type of films. In the 70s and 80s, I sometimes ran the projector and anxiously waited for that beep so I can turn to the next slide.
The fact you had to read books and magazines to learn about computers really shows how far we’ve come so quickly, in technology
That music is amazing
That bass line slaps.
LOL. Yup, totally agreed.
Haha! I knew one of these would be somewhere on UA-cam. Thanks. Honestly, though, I wish you had left the 'beeeeeeeps' in.
Thank you. Now that you mention it, you're absolutely right. Leaving the beeps in would have been gold. And then I probably should have added the actual sound the filmstrip projector makes when rolling to the next image. It would add that subtle flair of feeling back in a childhood classroom.
@@JonJonesLPM : Have you ever listened to the group Boards of Canada? Their music is directly influenced by the sights, sounds and experiences you described - fuzzy memories of 70s/80s childhood.
Me too!

Filmstrips were a staple in classrooms during my elementary years. What did you use to scan it?
I have fond memories of them from my young school days also. Even if the content was borderline boring, we always looked forward to the faux filmgoing experience of a filmstrip projecting in the darkened classroom, initially with the accompanying audio playing from a scratchy LP, and then later from a cassette deck.
I only uploaded these files a couple of years ago, but I actually digitized them over a dozen years before that. At the time I didn't have a scanner appropriate for this type of filmstrip, but I did have a classroom filmstrip projector. What I did was project in a darkened room onto a neutral white non-reflective surface about 6 feet away. I photographed the image using a high-resolution camera mounted next to the projector, and corrected the off-axis keystone using Photoshop. At that point I could have applied a full restore color correction, but I found that when I did, it removed some of the sentimental orange-tint aging that otherwise evoked faded 70s imagery. So I kept most of the aged orange hue intact.
Definitely should consider keeping in the beeps next time. But don't fake ones in digitally. And maybe try to mimic the strip rolling up in the projector and the pause after the beep where the teacher or monitor isn't always on the mark or hits it early, rolls back, then the beep immediately tells them to advance so they go forward again or they turn the knob too hard and go forward a few frames too many and then catch it.
