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.
This is a very quick email to thank you for all your hard work in putting our reels of Super 8 onto DVD - they're lovely and we're thrilled to bits with them. All being well, I will be in touch with you again when we're found any other reels. All best wishes for Christmas and the New Year.

I have just finished editing my granddad's cine films from the digital files you produced for me and wanted to tell you how much the family loved it. It was my grandmother's 70th birthday and the DVD was a lovely surprise for her as she had not seen the films for over thirty years! Thanks again for a great job transferring our films

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!

Many thanks indeed. I am so pleased with the results that I just telephoned my friend with all the good news. The transfer of all those old films is simply superb

Hi Susanne I thought the service was impeccable. Fast, informative and correct. John gave me brilliant email communication too. Even among all the Christmas chaos these files could not have been returned to me any quicker than they were. I would highly recommend your services again.

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.

I think the quality of the transfers is remarkable for 8 mm film over 50 years old. It is down to three things, the Leica camera which was used (good lenses and a very precise gate) the exceptional quality of the light in some of the locations (Shetland and Iceland especially) and top class transfer by Bluprint.

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.

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!
