You might want to check these people out, I just saw them suggested on one of Apple's boards by someone, and they look like they might be a good solution for the spool of film I'd like to get copied.

Someone else in the same thread suggested setting up a projector, and screen and filming the screen with your camcorder (you'd have to have a tripod).
