We offer the latest Frame Scanning technology for film conversion. This produces the highest quality result

Although Frame scanning produces the highest quality transfer result it does not capture sound, so film that contains a sound track will need to pass through a regular projector to record the audio. The sound track will then be added and synchronised to the scanned film. This costs a little extra due to double handling of the film

* Regular frame scanning in Full HD1920 x 1080p $0.48/ft

* Full Production including editing, colour correction, grain reduction in 1080P or 4K Ultra High Definition 3840 x 2160P - $0.55/ft

Our regular conversion service includes high quality frame scanning at Full HD 1920 x 1080p resolution.Our Full Production service includes editing to remove unwanted content or any content that should obviously not be included, such as when the camera was left running by mistake. Colour correction is applied where necessary and grain reduction. The final composition is usually saved in Full HD or 4K Ultra High Definition 3840 x 2160P resolution files by request. 4K files will only play on a 4K compatible TV and most computers.

DVD is being phased out as it is now considered to be old technology providing only standard definition playback quality. Image stabilisation is also included in this service. Most home movies however display far too much hand movement for this to work effectively but does remove a lot of the bumps.
