Gaylene's Home Movies

Before you press 'play', here's an introduction from Gaylene: "In Christmas 1981, I bought a Panasonic VHS camera and recorder; I used it to experiment. These home movie excerpts are brought to you as they came out of the camera, on the day they were shot. The recording is fluid, not precise. There's something about editing in the camera that changes the breath of the cuts...they are loose and a little unpredictable. That gives life. Also I didn't want to be editing, because I didn't have easy access to editing gear."
