Film Transfer



Transfer 8, Super 8 & 16 mm film reels to any video format including VHS and DVD

When we receive your reels in our studio, we take following steps:

Step 1. Cleaning the Films:


Whether you want to put your film to VHS, mini DV or DVD all films are cleaned. This is important because your film is saved from scratches that come in effect as your film passes through the converter. The hair and dust that come by during transfer process are cleaned using pressurized air blow. Your films are examined for any splicing need. We need a smooth transfer of films when passing through the converter. Each roll is passed separately through the machine. We do not combine your reels.

Step 2. Processing:

Each frame of the film is converted to a video signal and recorded over the desired medium of your choice. We use video signal measuring equipments to measure the brightness and color information in your film and correct accordingly. The process is handled by a trained technician.

Step3. Mastering:
Once the signal is processed, it can be mastered on DVD, Mini DV or harddrive (AVI, MPEG, MOV)
