Minnesota author James Eli Shiffer’s newly published book “The King of Skid Row” uses numerous images throughout the narrative that are derived from a frame-by-frame high definition (HD) scan of a vintage 16mm film titled “Skid Row”. Saving Tape Media Conversion restored the 16mm film and output sequential .jpeg images for each of the 43,000 frames of the film. Shiffer was able to select individual images and incorporate into the book narrative. In addition, the book’s beautifully designed cover features one of the key frames from the film.
