34-year-old Scott Black says lots of people take pictures and videos of big events. But what about the 75th annual church picnic, or a Brandywine Hundred history lecture?

Black: "But locally, we saw these events, and still continue to see these things that not only is no one documenting for next week, but for down the road from now. A picture is worth a thousand words."

He and his family, which owns Delaware Digital Video Factory in Wilmington, wanted to save these events for posterity -- something his wife calls Preserving Delaware.

Black: "And there's too many of them that people just overlook, so we're just trying to do what we can to keep it fresh in people's memories."

They do it for free, and give the video to the groups. Black, his father and brother-in-law have filmed events like the Wilmington Western Railroad, the Claymont parade and Punkin Chunkin. He'd like to create an online museum so everyone can experience the videos and pictures.

Black: "It's just a way that we figure we can kind of help out and document some of the things that happened, so that down the road people can look back and smile on it, and people that didn't see it, they can look at it and learn what it was about."
