Found Footage | Jerry's Wedding, An Open Bar, And Some Pointy Glasses | 1970
Labeled as Jerry's Wedding, this is a 1970's look after the wedding. The happy couple heading off to the reception and the family celebrating. Seemed like there was an open bar, which is always helpful.
Continuing on with the series, I suspect I could have called this Creepy Dad instead of Sexy Mom. The original Ebay said Sexy Mom, so I'll just stick with that.
This weeks reel covers from 1958 to 1960 around the San Francisco area. A little bit of Halloween, Christmas, Easter, a few trips, some 4th of July lots of holidays. There's even a new car for Gertie (she's the Sexy Mom). Keep on the look out for a very inconvenient grab, kids just not knowing what they're doing.

In March of 1965 lots was happening in the world. In Alabama, Martin Luther King Jr. was marching to the state capitol. There was the Vietnam War. And in this little film, we have a group of marines setting off to Germany on the USNS General William O. Darby.
We're waiving goodbye as John W. McBride sets off.

I don't really know what the date is for this footage. My best guess based on clothing and styles is the 60's or early 70's. The transitions were all done on film, which made me just need to find a chill track to back it.
This was actually two Super8 reels that I spliced together into one. From the writing on the box, this is Alex's house somewhere in Acapulco, but unsure who Alex happens to be. The food looks quite tasty, and the area looks like it'd have been fun to explore.

This isn't really found footage, moreso some Super 8 I shot at the Denver Zoo. Most of the effects in the video are a result of the developing process I was working on at the time, so they're all on-film or from the scanning process.

Vacation movies to the Hawaiian Islands seemed all the rage, especially in the 1970s. Traveling from island to island, looking at the sites, and taking crazy bus rides.
Surfers, locals, Waimea Canyon, hula, hula girls, so much to see.

From the same estate sale as a few previous films, the husband and wife are off enjoying the shops and beaches in a very crowded area. Lots of interesting people passing by, some working, some looking for anything they can get. A parade also passes by and then some parasailing near the end.

It seems that near every family has one, the life of the party, the drunk uncle. In this brief glimpse from the 60's, we get to watch him come in, have a few drinks, and make a pass at a pretty red head.
Also, there's food, family, cats, and babies.

Out of the films we've archived here, none have done quite so well a job of telling us exactly where and when the film was shot. A 1972 trip to Aruba including maps, hotels, beautiful beaches, and some lobsters.
One very interesting thing is how much Lago Oil and Transport had to do with this. All of the maps were supplied by Lago Oil, and some of their stops were at Oil related areas.

Nothing like a summer vacation down at the beach. Sun, bikinis, shirtless guys with flowing hair. Also, dolphins and a sunset. Unsure of the location, but seems to be in the 1970's.
