Q. How do you transfer the film to digital
A. I use a sprocketless transfer system that grabs the film by the edges. Each frame is scanned digitally from a 4K UHD resolution camera and then converted to a .MOV file for editing on Final Cut Pro or a sequential image file(TIFF) for Da Vinci Resolve.
​
Q. What if my film is very old and damaged?
A. I always give my clients an honest opinion before I commence work to advise if a transfer is recommended. If the film reel arrives broken, I professionally splice it to minimise loss of any material. The films are physically cleaned from mould using a 'wet gate' using the patented FILMGARD process to remove dirt and grime, but also to repair film scratches that are present.
​
Q. I don't know what is on the film. Can I view it first?
A. Yes. I invite customers to provide a sample reel of their choice, and I can transfer the film free of charge to show the quality of the digitisation.*
*conditions apply.
​
​
Q. What format is the final digitised file?
A. I normally convert to MP4 files but other file types can be arranged at clients request.
​
Q. What film formats do you do?
A. I scan Super8/Regular8, 16mm, with and without sound.
Q. Can you digitise my video cassette? Its very old and not sure what it is?
A. I digitise all old domestic video tapes ranging from the following: Betamax, VHS, VHSC, SuperVHS, Video 8, VideoHi8, Video8Digital, and miniDV. You will receive a basic SD transfer PLUS an upscaled 2K version which has been cleaned of video artifacts and grain.
Please ring and we can discuss if you are not sure. 0404 447 535
