Your recordings deserve a careful transfer. We use professional Blackmagic capture equipment and specialist film scanning to bring your original footage into digital form. Where appropriate, tools such as Topaz Video AI can support additional enhancement. The results depend on the quality and condition of the original recording.
​
Our approach to enhancement is considered and restrained, with the aim of preserving the character of your footage. Older recordings will retain some of their original limitations, and not every imperfection can be removed.
Colour correction, audio restoration and other enhancement work are available where they may help. Any additional cost depends on the condition of your recording and the work required, and will be agreed with you before that work begins.

See the difference a careful capture can make. The video below compares the same 8mm wedding film captured in two ways: recorded from a projection using a camcorder, and scanned frame by frame using our film scanner. Results vary with the condition and quality of each film.
