The result is an award-winning restoration that continues to receive accolades at both local and national levels.
We are a local, family-owned and operated business in Plymouth, Massachusetts with over two decades of video and film preservation experience. Our reputation is built on providing the highest level of quality and personal service. We are proud to be recognized as the leading video and film preservationist in Massachusetts.
FILM CONVERSION TO DIGITAL
Film Cleaning and Preparation
We carefully inspect, clean, and condition each film prior to conversion. Our proprietary restoration process removes dust, minor mold and scratches.
Digital Frame-By-Frame Film Scanning
Each film frame is digitally scanned using our industry leading motion picture film scanner, the same equipment used by the Academy of Motion Picture Film Archives in Hollywood.
Digital Color Correction and Film Grain Reduction
Scene by scene digital color correction is applied in post to each film by adjusting the color, exposure, contrast and gamma. We also perform film grain reduction to suppress visual noise for a cleaner, sharper image.
VIDEOTAPE TRANSFER TO DIGITAL
Prosumer Video Decks
To achieve optimum picture quality for each video format, we utilize the most advanced broadcast video decks to transfer all your analog and digital video tapes. Your videos are converted with amazing detail, sharpness and visual clarity.
Time Base Correction
An integral part of our video conversion process is through the use of a time-base corrector. A device that corrects the video signal and image quality of video tapes. It eliminates picture jitter and restores distorted vertical and horizontal sync as well as color burst signals.
Manual Color Correction
and Video Noise Reduction
We perform real time color correction for each scene and our video noise reduction filters remove any grain from the footage.
