Cine film to DVD transfer (and more)

Let’s convert those old cine films and 8mm film reels to DVD or shiny new digital files.

I bet a good deal of people have boxes in their lofts or attics full of old cine films or 8mm films, degrading and gathering dust. Those cines and films are bound to be full of wonderful memories from days gone; the kids growing up, pets that have passed on; and perhaps family members no longer with us. If you’re struggling to find a way to watch them again, then we have a solution.

Our professional service is simple and also bespoke. Our business can convert those old cine films or 8mm films to a digital format that works with your modern devices. We utilise a simple transfer process which converts your cine films to DVD. We convert all major formats, such as 8mm film, Super 8 and cine film.

I imagine, like most people, you have hours and hours of cine footage. It probably spans a number of years. Well, it gets better. We also offer an home video editing service. Our business can handle your cine to DVD transfer (plus other formats), and then edit the footage into a watchable film.

We thought we were at the peak of technology when we were using our Super 8 cameras, and could never imagine a day when they became obsolete. I remember quite clearly thinking at the peak of 8mm film usage, that my shiny new camera was the bees knees and the formats would be around forever. I didn’t even consider the fact that film can degrade and fail.

Sound familiar? When you think of all the devices we use today, smartphones especially, and how easy it is to take it out of your pocket and start filming. The digital format that we film in today is technology at its most transferable. Before that, using cinefilm, uploading to your computer from film in real time – that was a long process.

Hands up how many of you still have a cine film projector? Obviously we do 🙂 Or what about Super 8? We offer a cinefilm to DVD, digital or USB transfer service too. There’s almost no consumer format we can’t handle.

Using an 8mm film to DVD transfer service like ours, is going to make this process really easy for you. It’s probably something that you’ve been meaning to do for ages too. We offer a really user friendly service, and we really value the memories that we can bring back to life for you. We take good care of your old cine or Super 8 films, or many other formats and sizes (3-inch, 5-inch and 7-inch cine film reels) and do our very best to help you experience those memories again.
