WHY CHOOSE ME?

• Years of world-class experience preserving and restoring media. Listed on The Association of Moving Image Archivists Global Supplier Directory. Worked on countless projects for archives and museums such as:

  • Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (Academy Film Archive)

  • Denver Museum of Nature and Science

  • National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR)

  • Center for Southwest Studies

  • Hula Preservation Society

  • Wichita Sedgwick County Historical Museum

  • World Figure Skating Museum

  • Cinemalab Preservation

  • MoMA

  • Universal Studios

  • The Smithsonian

  • Eastman Museum

  • Ski and Snowboard Museum

  • UCLA

  • Gates Capital Management

  • History Colorado

  • Cinemalab Preservation Inc.

  • Many more…

• Truly professional equipment. Hand picked to be a step above other transfer services. I only use equipment that is reliable in the high-end preservation industry and is known to not damage original material. My signature machine is the 6.5K HDR Lasergraphics Scanstation, which is the same machine that is used by Warner Bros, NASA, The Library of Congress, and many other big archives and film labs

• Independently owned and lovingly operated. This is not a typical "mail-in" service, large corporation, or chain. This is a small, independent and locally owned business with a high-end studio, tons of experience, and I love what I do.

• Affordable archival quality. My goal is to give you the definitive version of your material that will never become outdated and won’t break the bank.

• The "Step-Above" Policy. My prices are designed to give you more for less. For example, I use Gold discs for all of my DVDs, which last longer than standard DVDs and are normally a huge upsell at other transfer services.

• Archival options available such as FFV1, JPEG 2000, LTO, and many others

FILM

Archival-grade film scanner, 6.5K native resolution , 12-bit capture, sprocketless, cool LED, edge-to-edge, true frame-by-frame, full dynamic range with HDR option, positive or negative

HD, 2K, and 4K scanning of film material. My process is unlike any other. I use the industry-leading 6.5K Lasergraphics Scanstation for my film scanning process, which has a high end modern sensor that boasts 25 megapixels. This is an archival-grade machine used by archives and film studios. This results in true representations of your original film material, increased detail in shadows and highlights, as well as implementing powerful color and faded film correction. No other service offers scanning like this on an accessible level, and my pricing is designed to be affordable

Budget home movie services are delivered as MP4 via flash drive or cloud for compatibility and flexibility. All services include basic cleaning. Options available for more advanced corrections, correcting faded film and digital restoration

VIDEO

Time-base correction, sVHS, intermediate codec capture

Time-base correction and professional-level tape decks help ease the effects of problematic and aging tapes. Combined with well maintained, high quality decks, this is the way a video transfer is meant to be done

Default delivery is MP4 files delivered via cloud or flash drive
