Our Film Transfer process uses a special method called “AIR TRANSFER” This method allows versatility in the final product which results in SD quality for DVD and HD quality for Blu-Ray Video and 4K. “AIR TRANSFER” renders out a visual transfer with no hot spots or dark edges… No Flicker and no jitter and there is no risk of burning through your film as the bright light source is a cold light source.
All Film Transfers undergo color correction and are mastered to Blu-Ray and DVD or your choice of Hard Drive or 1000 year archival media, Flash Memory or Downloadable files. You may request various CODECS if your have special professional needs. We recommend the best CODEC for high quality and editing as GV HQ or HQX.

We also specialize in restoration of film that has many dust and scratch defects as well as jump edits which can occur from original feature film editing. This is a noticeable hop of the film frame during each scene cut.
