Transcription

e e e so here I'm trying to recreate the the [Applause] archive with all the racks and the films out or mostly out this is a spray painting of Jimmy Hendrick by a former uh occupant of this room and she also did the much love this was the small plus room and you can tell we've already started tearing out the wall here I think I'm already varying the path a little bit so this is destined to be torn out drywall and then this was the medium room which is now empty okay yeah um this was a very very very busy weekend um so we had been taking films out of the back of the archive and there's no films in the back there's no films in the basement they're all offsite and uh at seven storage units and so uh good friend of mine Tim League uh said hey I can help you do demo work um and I was like okay so we got a dumpster and uh I took my trusty um Hello Kitty sledgehammer and we took down all the dryw wall and I will show you uh what that is looks like at the end of the show uh I am very sore and we filled up a dumpster we filled up a whole dumpster with the old 1970s late '70s uh uh stuff and Kevin yes uh Tim League uh who's the founder of the Alamo Draft House loves Doing Hard Hat work he loves doing it and I wouldn't have done it I was like I had it budgeted and somebody I I would pay somebody to do it but um yeah uh he was like let's do it and I was like okay and uh so there you go um I have lots of stuff to show you uh but let's start off so last week we showed um the wellfed cell and what was it what was the actual title of it let me see see yeah food choosers Guide to the W wellfed cell which was animated and was the third edition of food that builds good health well here's fil food boy I might have to have some more coffee food that builds good health by the way I'm skip Alzheimer welcome to the a Geeks lunchtime streaming show where we actually watch 16 mm films and all of that stuff I showed is in service uh for better housing for the 16 millimeter films we have in our collection enjoy M bacon and eggs and buttered toast won't you have some how about some jelly too and prunes they're delicious we have milk and a big glass of orange juice there's nothing like a good healthy breakfast to start the day off right and a meal like this should satisfy anyone well almost anyone except art Baker art just doesn't eat the food he should he only takes what he likes no wonder mother is worried she knows that eating the right foodly is to Good Health art is pale and underweight and he doesn't have very much energy and artst dis position well when mother asks him to help her with the marketing after school see how cross he gets he'll have to learn that food has a lot to do with the way you look and the way you feel did you ever notice that some boys and girls seem to look and feel better than others they always seem to be and full of vigor and vitality cheerful smiles bright eyes and strong and husky bodies it certainly is wonderful to be like that isn't [Music] it art would like to have as much fun as anyone else but he just can't keep [Music] up do you think that art could ever look and feel healthy like the other boys and girls [Music] [Music] well what's this guinea pigs arts class has been raising these guinea pigs for some time now this is Pat he's strong and healthy and full of pep and energy isn't he don't you think watching Pat is lots of fun this is Mike say he doesn't look like P does he see how unhealthy he seems to be not very much pep and energy no it isn't much fun watch these days why isn't Mike as healthy as Pat art can remember just a few months ago when the class first got Pat and Mike they had the same start they were both the same size and age and both were strong and healthy in the classroom they both received the same treatment only one thing was different the food p from Mike's on a chart arts class kept a careful record with check marks to show when Pat and Mike were fed hey the chart looks like this and today it's Art's turn to feed the guinea pigs one kind of food for Pat and another kind for Mike what do you think do you think this difference in the kind of food they eat has made the difference between healthy Pat and unhealthy Mike yes that must be the right answer you see Pat gets a balanced diet containing all the different kinds of food a guinea pig needs to be healthy but Mike's diet is unbalanced he gets plenty to eat out of all the kinds of food he needs so Pat is strong and healthy but Mike is not the kinds of food you eat make quite a difference apply to people our bodies need the balance of the various kinds of food to make us strong and healthy too we need foods rich in proteins carbohydrates fats vitamins minerals and water proteins help us with growth fats and carbohydrates are important suppliers of energy vitamins and minerals are good for body regulation and water serves to transport all these materials throughout our bodies can you guess where these materials we need come from why from the foods we eat of course of course those Foods fall into basic food groups milk vegetables fruits eggs meat cheese or fish cereal or bread and butter or enriched margarine every day you should eat some of the foods in each of these groups it's up to you if you don't eat the right Foods regularly you may not be strong and healthy if you do eat the right Foods Reg regly your body will get all the material it needs for good health well after school art tried helping mother with a shopping and he found it was fun to try to help pick out the foods that will make good healthy meals take milk for example that's an important food group when we're growing up we should have about four glasses of milk every day to help build strong bones and teeth and now let's go on to another important food group vegetables there certainly is quite a variety to choose from lettuce spinach cabbage carrots celery squash and a lot more besides potatoes we should have two or more servings of vegetables daily next something from the fruit group look at all the different kinds cherries pears apples pineapples watermelon oranges we'll take some oranges fruits are especially good for body regulation we should have two or more servings every day and let's take some Tomatoes art is not so fond of tomatoes but if they help make us healthy he's willing to eat them and who knows he'll probably grow to like them eggs are another important food that help make us healthy there are all sorts of ways to prepare eggs we should really have an egg every day now let's see meat what kind will we have for dinner Meats of all kinds or fish or poultry or cheese any of these would fill our daily requirement of this group of foods and there's certainly a variety to set a tempting table there now is there anything else oh yes another important food bread and mother always makes sure its whole grain or enriched and to go with the bread butter or enriched margarine they contain that help provide us with the materials we need for energy now we have food foods from all the groups necessary to make healthy well balanced meals can you remember what they are milk vegetables fruits eggs meat bread and butter these Foods Supply what our bodies need for good health and here's what a healthy dinner looks like ready to eat just look at that roast and potatoes carrots bread and butter lettuce and tomato salad and milk a well balanced meal with something from each of the food groups and look at Art he's eating a good helping of all the things on the table whether they're his favorites or not he's going to become just a strong strong and healthy as anybody else and during the weeks that followed every time art sat down to a meal he remembered the things he had learned about foods and health about how Pat and Mike showed that eating the right Foods regularly can make you look and feel healthy and how our bodies need different kinds of materials from the right Foods and what these food groups are and how we must have the right amounts of each to have a balanced diet yes art has learned that the food we eat has a lot to do with good health the right foods will help us to look healthy to feel healthy and most of all to be happy [Music] what happened um yeah um rodents don't do very well in U films on nutrition there's a lot of starving going on um let's see so behind me I have a uh film scanner and we have one two three four films this is exciting I had so much fun showing you uh stuff this is new stuff that we got also did I say that on Saturday I got 200 more films so there's more films but I took them off site um anyways here's a scanner and what are we going to see first I'm not sure um let me find out um anyways enjoy it's not Jasper's Hospital experience it is something else which I can't remember uh so I'll change the title as soon as we see it enjoy [Music] good morning Mr bus how are you today just fine Webster and you well I'm okay thank you I wooo out of the way me first come on Slowpoke Orson I'm surprised at you you come down here right this minute but Webster what did I [Music] do I was just having fun fun Oran sometimes now Webster be patient who is that it is I your school bus now Webster be patient with Orson maybe he doesn't know about the safety rules for riding on a school bus rules what rules honestly Orson don't you know anything about riding the bus safely well I've only been riding for a short while and I Orson there are no excuses when your life and the lives of others are involved Mr bus it looks like we're going to have to help Orson learn the rules you're right Webster why don't you look into my right headlight and I'll try to shine some light on the subject hey a movie pay attention Orson when you're waiting for the bus to arrive oron you should make sure that you're at a safe distance from the curb and don't rush up to the bus when it arrives that's right everyone should line up in a single file and wait until the bus door is opened and the driver says that it is all right to get on board then you should file onto the bus in an orderly manner does that mean mean no pushing or shouting once on the bus take your seat and stay seated until the bus driver opens the door at your stop gee I'm sorry I didn't know those things Webster I didn't mean to do anything wrong that's okay Orson we all have to learn sometime but that's not all there's lots more that's right Webster let's show Orson how to ride on the bus safely okay always remain seated while the bus is moving it is very important to keep your hands arms and head inside and and be sure to keep the aisle clear of anything you're carrying with you like my baseball bat and glove yes and my books in lunch yes and my Orson really now I'm sorry I just wanted to be sure you're right oron I apologize for losing my patience but we have so much to cover I oh never mind now just pay attention what's next Mr bus Webster I don't believe believe we've said anything about one of the most important things on a school bus the wheels what's that Mr bus the windshield wipers the bus driver oh oh the driver is very important to the safety of everyone on board he's sort of like the captain of a ship and should be obeyed just like one is driving a bus full of children hard work it can be Orson if everyone doesn't cooperate with the driver what should they do well keeping the noise down and behaving would help the driver concentrate on driving being quiet also helps the driver hear signals such as at railroad crossings or when an emergency signal is heard emergency what emergency I never knew there could be one of those an emergency can be anything Orson it can be a flat tire a breakdown in the motor an accident yes worson even an accident but the important thing is to always remain calm and listen to the driver or a student aid if one has been appointed by the driver the driver will always give instructions on whether to get off the bus or not if he says to get off go to the emergency exit assigned to you leaving anything you're carrying with you on your seat you mean like my baseball band and glove that's right and my books in lunch yes and my sorry Webster yes when you leave the bus do you line up single file like when you get on that's a very good question oron the answer is no the passengers in the right front seat leave first followed by the left front seat and and so on until the bus is empty that sounds like fun riding on the bus can be fun if you follow all the rules Orson that's right now let's go over them once more to be sure we covered everything don't rush to get onto the bus very good Oran and then we board in single file quietly and courteously take your seat and remain there until you reach your destination and the bus has stopped moving don't forget to keep the aisle clear and keep your hands arms and heads inside obey the bus driver at all times exit the bus from aign doors on command from the driver leave quietly and orderly from right to left starting with the front row Oran I'm really proud of you you you learned so much today there's only one thing left which we haven't covered what's that Webster when you get off the bus be sure to walk directly away from the bus before stopping and be sure that the driver can see you so he'll know it's safe to go Webster I think it's time for us to go too you're right Orson Goodbye Mr bus goodbye Orson and Webster goodbye [Music] yeah that does have a real Barney Miller theme feel to it plus that has a real U Jimmy Stewart feel to it uh a lot of stuff in uh kids bus safety film um let's see this next one is slavonic dance Oster plays slavonic dance yeah that's going to be a tough one um let me switch over and we'll see what this is all about la [Music] n [Applause] [Music] a [Music] the e [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] well that was nice yeah someone in the comments was like it's hard to Riff on when something has done nice piece of classical music yeah sometimes we need a break need a break uh what's the next film I got set up here uh uh it says lemon lemon sequence I don't know what this is [Music] [Music] the audiovisual medium can motivate what do we mean motivate we mean move audio visuals can move a person almost in spite of himself now you may be saying no one can darn well move me if I don't want to be moved perhaps but let's experiment with the power of the medium right now this is a lemon slightly green fresh plucked from that lovely California Grove the juice is a little tart and as the knife slices into the fruit it squirts a bit and skitters down the blade this is a juicy lemon and the Very smell of it tempts The Taste if you like most people this lemon makes your mouth water almost in spite of yourself a resp response is stirred inside you you have been moved motivated so strong is the suggestion of this amazing medium we have no lemon here you see just a projector and a piece of film through which light is poured and sound is [Music] evoked I was so blown away by the fact that Mason Adams did the voice over and some somebody actually thought the first puppet sounded like Mason Adams I didn't even get a chance to change it was just called lemon sequence all right uh this one I think is in this is part two of intermediate shooting technique um just in time for the Olympics enjoy for [Music] [Applause] [Music] anyone who wants to become a top-notch Archer probably already knows that the first job is learning the basic steps of a good shooting sequence next comes the process of refining and adapting those basic skills to suit an individual's own physical characteristics or personal preferences but most important of all is developing a positive mental approach to shooting good attitude is as important as good equipment in good form so only when you've developed a positive metal approach will you be able to refine the basics into the shooting sequence that's best for you a shooting sequence you'll be able to repeat consistently each and every time you step up to the line the first half of that sequence includes taking the proper stance knocking the arrow positioning the fingers on the bow string raising the bow to pre-draw position the drawer and positioning the elbow the second half of the sequence begins with the draw includes holding the anchor aiming and concentrating on the center of the target releasing the arrow and following through so let's take a good look at the second half of that sequence and examine the aspects of it that must be perfected nearly every Archer has learned that the draw should be accomplished by pulling the string back with the muscles of the back and shoulder but not everyone knows that the easiest way to achieve that goal is simply by bringing the elbow back in a straight line so instead of worrying about the muscles in your back concentrate on bringing the elbow back in as straight a line as possible as the draw ends the point of the elbow is in correct position slightly above the arrow and during the draw it's also important to relax the string fingers by keeping the back of the drawing hand relaxed from the third knuckle back through the wrist and forearm as the hand comes back to Anchor the third knuckle back of the hand and wrist all should be in line even during The Anchor You must maintain the tension between the back and shoulder muscles the anchor itself varies from one Archer to the next some Target Shooters anchor under the chin others to the side of the face and mouth whichever of the two you prefer you'll achieve a good solid anchor by holding the forefinger tightly against the Jawbone not only does this bone to- bone anchor keep your head eyes shoulders and bow arm in proper alignment but it maintains the pulling forces of the back and shoulders while you aim either anchor helps a shooter align the string accurately because the string itself is visible in the aiming eye a good anchor also helps Shooters bring the string back to the same point every time and keep their heads in good position the under the chin anchor may be difficult for some people to master because of certain physical characteristics such as a short neck and both under the chin and side anchor are usually used by sight Shooters on the other hand instinctive shooting requires the use of the hunting anchor in which the hand fits along the cheek with a thumb underneath the jaw this is a solid anchor that's easy to duplicate rapidly with any anchor it's important that all archers avoid some common faults that destroy the accuracy of their shots opening and closing the mouth throws the anchor off and causes high or low strike patterns locking the string hand on the face relaxes the muscles in the back and causes a dead release and low arrows Goose necking bending the neck toward the bow results in a shorter draw and low arrows and if there's a lack of solid reference points between the hand and face the anchor floats from shock to shot other common faults include changing the angle of the head from shot to shot overd dry and not using the string alignment properly finally if you fail to relax the muscles of the neck and face during the anchor you'll become fatigued far too quickly but if you can avoid all these faults you'll develop a solid anchor that gives you a good platform from which to aim the first important point to remember about aiming is this your aim is only as good as the form directing the arrows if the arrow is to hit in the Target Center you must give it a positive direction the target the sight and the bow string must be aligned and the sight picture should look like this with the Target in focus and the sight and string out of focus there's bound to be some slight movement of the site on the target that's virtually impossible to eliminate don't worry about it and don't strain your muscles trying to correct it instead stay relaxed and let the sight float on the center of the target throughout the aiming process keep your concentration on the Target and your eyes focused on it adjusting the focus between the sight and the target not only breaks the concentration but causes rapid eye fatigue only when you feel everything about the shot the alignment of the bow string center of the sight and the target is right is it time to release and every good Archer maintains his concentration after the arrow is released keeping the center of the Target in Focus throughout the follow through when shooting without a sight the aiming process is instinctive and becoming a good instinctive shooter takes a great deal of time practice and experimentation and to become a good instinctive shooter you must follow three vital rules first the anchor must be constant next your concentration must be directed on the spot you intend to hit and third you must shoot soon after raising the bow into position there must be no adjustment of the bow arm whatsoever naturally only through practice and experimentation will you learn how to use the instinctive aiming method successfully of course all emphasis on preparing the shot will be wasted unless you have good form at the release now let's look at what should happen remember that the word release actually is an inaccurate way to describe how the arrow should leave the hand in truth the muscles of the back of the hand relax until the shot explodes out of the shooter's fingers and the key point is to time that relaxation of the hand so the release or the explosion occurs when everything else is right when the string sight and Target are in line and when you're mentally ready so a good release must be pre seed by several other checkpoints a relaxed bow Hand firm hold on the string wrist of the string hand relaxed bow arm elbow rigid string and sight aligned with the center of the Target and shoulder and back muscles feeling the pull of the Bow's weight then as the pull tension increases when you get the feeling that everything about the shot is right the back of the hand relaxes and the arrow explodes from your grasp your finger should feel as if they're pulling through the string not letting go of it to improve the consistency of their release many shooters use a small device called a clicker at full draw the clicker rest on the last eighth of an inch of the arrows point after aiming and when ready to shoot the Archer applies pressure on the drawing elbow until he hears the sound of the click and then releases instantly the follow through begins immediately as a simple and natural pull of the fingers with without unnecessary or exaggerated movement the tension in the back and shoulder muscles pulls the fingers back and into contact with the Jawbone and along the neck the Bow hand moves forward slightly to the left as a result of the explosion of the shot even as you hear the arrow HIIT the target you should still be holding this follow through position and mentally reviewing the entire shot sequence this is the time to make a metal note about anything you'll want to correct in the next shot only then do you relax and prepare for the next shot sequence all the time you should keep thinking concentrating on exactly what you're doing trying to understand any shooting problems you may have obviously you can't let your mind wander or let yourself be distracted as a result of your concentration and mental discipline you'll develop a personal shooting form best for you the shooting form that again and again will put your arrows right in the center of a [Music] Target wow that was uh that was pretty great um I'm not a Athletics fan but I do get sucked into some Olympics competitions especially weird ones ones that don't seem like they're traditional or I don't know anything about so uh last Olympics it was volleyball women's volleyball this year it's women's uh skateboarding and uh it was just fascinating like it and especially all the terminology of all the tricks it's it's pretty funny and whether they did it straight or whether they did it goofy style you know all that stuff really awesome so um this next film is not mine it's part of the prelinger collection but it's something that I supposedly was going to get in a collection of films but never showed up uh this is an interesting film it's made by the person who made nanuk of the north uh Robert flare uh and it is made for the government and it's about what's happening with sugar and why rationing was still going on after World War II ceased um and there's a little interesting Side Story related to that but here's what's happened to Sugar enjoy [Music] on August 14th 1945 our president gave out the news we had been waiting for now it was official for all the world to hear unconditional surrender victory over our Last Enemy Japan from coast to coast the nation hailed the coming of peace and the return of happier days one by one the curbs of wartime were removed but not on sugar why for the answer we must go back several years to the days before the war pre-war sugar production for the whole world was some 30 million tons a year the world sugar came from lands far apart cane sugar from java and the Philippines meat sugar from nearly every country in Europe cane sugar from Hawaii Puerto Rico and Cuba and from our own Mainland Louisiana and Florida beat sugar from almost a score of States reaching from our Great Lakes to the Pacific coast our pre-war Mainland production of beaten cane sugars represented more than 1/4 of the nation's Supply the rest we brought in from the cane fields of Tropical Islands almost a million tons a year from the Philippines about the same from Hawaii nearly a million tons from Puerto Rico and from our largest source Cuba over 2 million tons our domestic beet sugar production has normally averaged more than a million and a half tons a year the sugar beet needs the cool climate of temperate zones for proper growth the sugar stored at its long white root is identical in all respects with the cane sugar of tropical and semitropical climates we had plenty of sugar until December 7th 1941 when Japanese treachery plunged us into worldwide [Music] war when the [ __ ] seized the Philippines they destroyed cane fields and Mills and the United States lost a yearly sugar supply of close to a million tons when Java fell the world lost another million and a half tons a year across the world with more most of Europe including Russia's Rich Ukraine under the Nazi heel wartime shortages of Manpower Machinery Fuel and fertilizer all but halted production of the sugar beet the global war cut off nearly half of the world's sugar we were not fighting the war alone our allies had to share with us the world's remaining sugar of this available Supply the United States was receiving the Lion Share here is sugar from Cuba raw sugar ready for refining it looks like a lot yet although Cuba doubled her contribution to our supply during the war it's less than we hoped it would be for drought in Cuba and Puerto Rico in the last year of War cut deeply into the Harvest from a smaller total Supply our sugar industry has had to meet demands greater than ever before for in Wartime this worldwide commodity became a worldwide problem wartime demands brought a challenge to the scientist he proved that Sugar could be used in the manufacturer of synthetic tires and other parts of this bomber it's Wing coating radar equipment and the Plastics on the instrument panel sugar entered into the composition of this [Music] [Music] turret and Sugar's most important byproduct molasses went into the production of the industrial alcohol used in the manufacturer of these [Music] bombs enormous amounts of sugar were consumed daily by our armed forces or Army dietitians knew that sugar meant Renewed Energy to these GIS sugar was far more than a mere sweetening substance that went into the rations they ate into the cigarettes they smoked and into their candy bars to these men sugar wasn't just something to put into a cup of coffee to them products derived from sugar often meant the difference between life and death the citric acid used in blood plasma to prevent coagulation is made from beet sugar molasses sugar is used too in making anesthetics antiseptics and the surgical dressings with which wounds are bound from the war's earliest days every available ship carried supplies for the fight F in fronts the Nazi uots with the sinking of Untold tonnage in our Merchant Marine almost cut our Lifeline to war ravaged Europe we licked the Nazi at Sea and we beat him on his home grounds but victory in Europe did not solve our sugar shortage for VE Day marked only half the job and liberation of Europe's hungry peoples actually increased the demand on world short supplies the nation now faced West the railroads carried the greatest load in their history never were our Pacific Coast ports so busy in peace time this shipping would be available to bring the products of other countries to us not the least sugar but our sugar must wait for these ships now were speeding men machines arms of war and Food Supplies to our forces poised on island outposts for the final Onslaught on Japan our occupation of these islands and of the Japanese Homeland itself was preceded by terrific Naval bombardments it took as much as 900 lb of sugar for one Blast from one of these guns one Salvo from five guns used up the yield of a whole acre that was just part of the price of Victory but even the total Victory which came with Japan's surrender failed to provide the answer to the world's sugar shortage for the liberation of the Far East added the needs of its hungry homeless peoples to those of Europe's undernourished millions and to the drain on world Supply the demand for sugar is now actually larger than it was during the war but the world's Supply is still far behind the demand sugar is an agricultural crop and it will take time to restore the Beet Fields of Europe and the cane fields and Mills of the Philippines and other sugar growing areas to their former production Americans still are receiving the Lion Share of the world's Supply but there just isn't enough to meet the demand as in war now in peace sugar must be distributed at as equitably as possible for household and Industrial uses and rationing is still the answer this is the straight and simple fact we still haven't all the sugar we'd like for our home canning and preserving our coffee and breakfast cereal our commercial canned Meats fruits and vegetables our soft drinks our ice cream candy and bait Goods because World sugar supplies are still far short of demand our government has fitted the ration to the supply so that each gets his own fair share when there is enough for all then and only then rationing will be lifted apart from its food uses sugar enters into our peacetime life in countless unimagined ways for example in our steel mills and foundaries sugar preparations are used in certain kinds of molds to prevent the metals from sticking products from sugar are used in the compound in of paint in surgery in penicillin in x-ray plates and in the chemicals with which crops are [Applause] sprayed yes peace is here and the things of Peace are coming back in our own country where living standards are the highest in the world life will be more abundant than ever our government is giving all possible Aid to the war shattered countries to lay the foundations for a better world government rationing at home helps us to share the world's sugar with the world's hungry people that they in turn may help us to keep the peace we now [Music] enjoy then these our own who fought for that pieace will not have sacrificed in vain sugar helped in war sugar now plays its part in peace keep sharing [Music] it what an amazing film holy cow I had a hint that it was going to be good based on the title but holy cow and this explains why I had all that footage uh by the USDA about beet farming sugar beet farming like uh we showed some of those earlier couple of weeks ago um it was silent footage of different types of equipment that would do sugar beat farming that's what this is all about is the fact that uh our supplies of sugars were being cut off now uh I read a uh book an amazing book called God country in Coca-Cola or some variation on that title which is about the history of Coca-Cola in the United States and also its dealings with uh Pepsi and so when the rationing started uh it was all industries that use sugar got a percentage of what uh uh of what they were using um and so Pepsi kind of got screwed because they were beginning to grow and market and they got totally trounced because they weren't using as much sugar as Coca-Cola was uh so they couldn't really grow the industry so um during this time when this film came out there was a senator who uh was desperately trying on behalf of Pepsi Cola to to make it more easy for Pepsi to get back what they needed so they could grow their business and that uh it was he was such a pain in the butt about it that he got the nickname Pepsi Joe and of course that was our good friend uh Joe McCarthy so uh I recommend reading about it it's it's fascinating uh Coca-Cola during wartime is nuts it's really really crazy there's some shadiness uh Fanta was created because it was I don't know it was their way to Market in Germany uh and not have something that was pro-american uh and that was being labeled as being uh Jewish owned um and there was some shadiness there it's it's amazing so I I recommend reading it and I I would say that one of the reasons that we consumed so much sugar was because we had soda uh I don't have numbers but anecdotally I feel like that's the case so wow that was awesome and that was not a joke Kevin I know that you're like what but no that was a real thing and uh people were complaining obviously um so thanks for tuning in today very much appreciate uh you watching uh very excited to show you four films we scanned four brand new films so we're going to try to keep that up uh even though I don't have any films on site we're going to keep that going uh I was going to show you uh some of you uh didn't uh show up at the beginning but I was showing what I was working on this weekend um besides taking in 200 to 300 new films uh here's my Hello Kitty sledgehammer and uh um so let me show you let's see so much stuff to show you uh this is uh this is why isn't it working what's going on huh that's weird one second all right here we go so this is a a tour of the archive uh before um so this is uh the large room so these are films that are 1600 1200 1600 ft um you can see a little bit uh of some artwork call that the Jimmy room and you'll see why this is this is a pretty old uh film cuz we ended up having um racks in the hallway as well this is the large and small plus room and then there's also a shelf for venial disease films we also keep film strips there um and there's some spare takeup reels then and uh here's the medium room and so these are 800t cans that between 15 and 20 minutes and there's more mediums I think that's the most of the sizes we have are these medium Siz cans then here's Smalls although we have a lot of smalls so these are 400t cans these go up to 11 minutes in length um you see it's kind of tight so I show you this because this is this is the overhead associated with um actually collecting film is where does that film go there's a lot of people on YouTube who have old films online but they don't have the films they just pulled files from other sources from internet archive from other places but we actually have film like real deal um and so moving 37,000 films was a lot of work and it was like three or four months probably six months actually of moving everything offsite uh and this is so that we can renovate and um make a better space for an office uh but also make a film Vault uh not like a real film Vault that gets to 50° but one that where we can control the temperature and humidity and the water um and it has its own separate HVAC system uh so here is uh what we got done by end of day yesterday so here I'm trying to [Music] recreate actually no that's the wrong one let's try that again sorry all right all right so this is after a Sunday's work uh Jimmy is no longer here nor is much love the

to print uh a nice big image of it that we're going to put in frame and we will then have it uh as a memorial because part of it is like if I saved it like where would I put it like I don't really have a place to put it um no the So reading the comments yeah the paper it so that drywall was was put up like in the late 7s and so it was it was hosed and we tried to to do tests to pull it and it just was ripping wrong so um but we will recreate him uh yes it was a Jimmy Hendrick uh would Jimmy was spelled j i mm Y and it was a painting uh the spray painted mural that someone that lived in the boarding house when this was a boarding house uh painted it and I wanted to keep it but it just yeah um regarding zoning don't ask don't tell uh basically the city sees this as a house and it's just
