The Archive contains recordings of events, people and places mainly in Luton. There are over 1350 digital movies of Luton and other movies of general interest. The main coverage is from 1998 onwards but there is also some restored cine footage going back to the 1960's. This is a unique collection of recordings many of which are about Luton, Bedfordshire. They have mostly been digitised, but the original media formats, such as Cine Tape, VHS/C, VHS, Hi8, S-VHS, MiniDV, HDV, AVCHD are also held. There are also some digital computer generated animation files. The movies in this archive vary in duration and quality, ranging from a few minutes to six hours or more. The listings are at three levels of detail. At the most detailed level a few of the short movies have links to online files which are viewable, e.g. on Youtube.

Before movies are released, the permission of the author is sought. If you are interested in obtaining copies, contact us, using the Comment Box Link at the foot of this page. State intended use for movie.
