Detailed Information
 
Movie Film Transfer

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:
The film is converted to a video signal and recorded initially to digital video (.DV) where it is then edited in full resolution.

Step3. Mastering:
Once the signal is processed, it can be mastered on

    a. Analogue tape - VHS
    b. Digital tape - MiniDV
    c. DVD or harddrive (.DV)
