Before It's Too Late! offers practical tips on how to evaluate the condition of your aging library, best practices to preserve the original film, what a professional transfer facility offers that a consumer facility does not, options to edit and create a story, how to share footage on social media, watch on a smart phone, iPad or HD TV, and options to sell clips as stock footage.
