Film Transfer to DVD

Are your valuable movie memories piled in a box? Don’t let those treasured family gems turn to dust and disappear forever! Let us convert them to long-lasting DVDs! Our film capture systems provide flicker free, edge to edge clarity that is frame accurate.

Everything you give to us – canisters, reels, boxes – are returned to you, along with your film on the master reels. Once the film is transferred onto our editing system we do the following:

1. Edit out blank or poor quality footage. Anything that is considered “un-viewable”, such as over-exposed, totally black or totally white, or extremely blurry footage is removed during the editing process. As a rule, we try to edit very cautiously – if we can make out a face or scene we will leave it in. Chances are you or someone else will recognize that portion of the footage!

2. Perform basic brightness/contrast adjustments. We see quite a bit of footage that is very dark or very washed out. We will do our best to improve the quality of the footage, but it is a difficult process.

Please remember that film recording back in those days was much cruder than the amazing technology we have today, so the quality of the footage is going to be what it is. We can perform only so many miracles!

FILM TRANSFER TO DVD

DVD transfers include:

• DVD with title printed on disc face

• DVD case with color sleeve and titles printed on back

• Chapter points inserted at 5 minute intervals

• In order to produce the highest quality output, we transfer a maximum of TWO hours of footage onto VHS tape or DVD.

• While we take every precaution to protect and preserve your films, we cannot assume responsibility for film that is given to us in poor condition.
