Cine Transfer Process

BENCHCHECK :

Our first step is to examine each film and where needed remake any film splices. Where possible we remove any totally black or clear sections of film to give you a better viewing experience.

FILM CLEANING :

Over time, static attracts dust, causing dirt and scratches to appear on the film image. Our liquid cleaning process eliminates the surface dust and also reduces the thickness of black or coloured scratches..

TRANSFER PROCESS :

For each transfer we make sure that your films are treated with care and respect.  Colour, contrast and brightness levels are adjusted to improve the digital quality of the cine film image during transfer.

We recommend that you keep your original films for future generations to discover and to consider for the next generation of storage technology. We also store an electronic copy of your films which we hold for six months.
For over 35 years we have transferred films to many formats.

What clients say about us!

We would like to thank all our customers who have kindly allowed us to share their comments.
I just wanted to thank you for sending my cine transfers back so quickly! It took me back 30 odd years when I watched them, mum and dad are going to be so pleased that they can watch them now without having to get out the step ladder to set up the projector, pull out the big screen and re-arrange the living room so we can all see! It was the height of technology back then and we were the first ones in the road to have one (we had a colour TV and a new car too!) Thank you so much you have restored my faith that when we ask someone to do something, they actually do it!

From my initial telephone call to watching my films on DVD I couldn't be more pleased with what you have done. Everyone I spoke to were friendly and my parcel arrived in plenty of time for our daughter's wedding as discussed. It's nice to know that there are still people that can provide a personal service. top job guys!

I have viewed the DVD, it was better than I expected. The cutting together of the films was very good, and the contact between me and your staff was very very good. I was nervous about sending the films as they were so old and irreplaceable, but after speaking to you on the phone my mind was set at ease. Can't thank you enough for everything.

I would just like to say that I am very satisfied with the service you provided to me. I have now had an opportunity to look at one of the DVDs and - although it shows 30 year old films, with all the consequent picture / sound deterioration that that entails - I am well pleased with the quality of pictures I'd not been able to view for many years.

Thanks for the excellent service - the DVD was a Christmas present to my father who had not seen his cine films for many years since his projector gave up. I had left it late, but it arrived for Christmas as promised.

Thank you so much for transferring our rediscovered 16mm films of a royal visit from the 1930's. They really are extraordinary, and a revelation to us!

We have skimmed the various films on the 4 DVDs, and whilst chastened by seeing our younger selves, we have been surprised by the quality of the reproduction and the quality of the images. I am very grateful for your work.

I just wanted to thank you for the DVD's we received on Wednesday. I spent a lot of time phoning other companies before speaking to Susanne on the phone. She was very helpful in answering my questions without blinding me with science! Thanks again, I will certainly be recommending your services.
