Where are
those old family movies? Do you have a projector that
works to watch them? Liberate your 8mm, super 8mm,
sound super 8mm and 16mm movies by transferring them
to DVD. Your movies are captured using broadcast
quality 3CCD video camera that has more dynamic range
and color clarity than a consumer video camera. Watch
those precious memories as easily as watching your
favorite movie. It's so easy to share with family
members by ordering several copies. Here's what we
do:
- Transfer
films to the computer where we trim off the leader
and tail ends of each movie and color correct them.
NOTE: You can specify the order you wish them
transferred by numbering each reel.
- Edit
them together so they play
contiguously.
- Put
chapter marks between each reel just like a
professional movie (some competitors charge for
this!)
- Author
final video to DVD with a professional DVD
menu
- Create a
custom DVD case with shots from the movies on the
front cover and custom title. The image above is an
example.
- The
original movies are returned to you along with the
DVD
Up to 2 hours can be captured onto a DVD. 8mm movies
typically come on 50 ft (3inches), 200 ft (5 inches)
or 400 foot (7 inches) reels. A 50 foot film reel
fits in the palm of your hand is about 3.5 minutes
long so you can fit over 30 reels on one DVD!!
