Converting Old Movies To DVDs
 

Do you have a box of old 8MM or Super 8 movies and don’t know what to do with them?

Do you realize the memories you have on those films?

Once they are gone, you’ll never get them back.

There are many places that will transfer your films to DVDs.

I have recently partnered with a company that converts your films to DVDs. The difference is that they do so much more.

Here is what you get by contacting me to have this done:

  1. All your films will be physically cleaned as they run through a cleaning process.
  1. Any films that are broken, they will be SPLICED together and fixed.
  1. The film is usually projected onto a screen or into a lens and recorded. With us, your film is recorded FRAME BY FRAME giving a much cleaner image. If you want Hi-DEF quality, that can be done during the transfer. All new recording equipment was designed and built for this purpose.
  1. Once the films have been transferred, they are spliced together onto one or more larger reels for safe keeping. No longer will you have a bag full of small reels of film.
  1. The footage can then be placed on a DVD for you or they can come back as an AVI file for further recording in Dick’s studio. There he can add music, graphics, COLOR CORRECT the footage and create any number of presentations for you the client. With a large collection of editing software, these family films make great gifts and presentations and projected on a large screen during family events, reunions. Ask Dick about
    1. Creating a presentation from these films
    1. Bringing all the equipment and project it on a large screen with speakers in a sound system so all can hear and see this family memory.
  1. If you have 16MM or 35 MM films, they can also be transferred.
  1. If you have old VHS video tapes, they can also be transferred.

Once you have contacted Dick, he will ask you to review what ever information you have on the films and asks that you number them in the order you want. Dick will then attach a BAR CODE label on each film. This will be the order they will appear on the DVD.

Besides the DVD, if the files come back as AVI files, then Dick can take them in any order and create any presentation you would like or imagine.

Each project is different in what you the client may want or the size of the film list to convert. Figure on $5 per 3 minute film reel for the all the work that happens to repair, clean, organize and transfer your films into digital footage.

If your film has sound, it requires different recording equipment. The video is recorded at HIGH DEFINITION quality and the sound track is recorded through a different line. The cost is about $ 9 per 3 minute film reel.

You can contact Dick at 781-293-5359.
