won't have to set up a film projector and a home movie screen to enjoy
your memories.

Popular Video Formats
|
|
We can create a DVD for
you from these video formats:
VHS (the
full size tapes that fit in most VCR’s)
VHS-C (these are for compact camcorders like Panasonic)
Beta or Betamax (an older format; last used in the ’80s)
Hi-8
(these are for compact camcorders like Sony and Canon)
Digital 8 (a relatively new format for compact camcorders)
miniDV (the new digital video tape format)
DVD (generally these are DVD-R, but there are other variations)
CD-ROM for mpeg, AVI, wmv and other digital files)
Video Tape Transfer Prices
VHS, VHS-C, Hi-8, Digital 8 & miniDV:
$20.00* for the first two hours of tape length and $8.00 for each
additional hour of tape length
*add $10.00 per DVD disc required (up to 6 hours of video per disc)
Since we work on a first come- first served basis the turnaround time
for copies will vary. Sometimes we are requested to 'edit out' certain
parts of a tape or to record only a portion of a tape. This can be
done - but at significant additional cost - due to the extra
time/equipment required. If you need multiple copies of a master
video, the unit pricing may become lower after the initial conversion.
Although video cassette housings and DVD media are essentially
standard world-wide, the actual signal that is recorded varies from
country to country. Because of these multiple standards in video
recording, videotapes and DVDs from certain foreign countries must be
converted to the American television standard format (NTSC) in order
to be played back on American VCRs or DVD players. Likewise,
videotapes or DVDs recorded in the American format (NTSC) must be
converted to another format (usually PAL or SECAM) in order to be
viewed in another country.

Popular Audio Formats
|
|
We can create an audio
CD for you from these formats:
Cassette Tapes (the predecessor to CD's)
8-Track tapes (Personal music goes mobile!)
Vinyl records (LP's, 33-1/2, 78, and 45 RPMs)
Reel to
reel audio tape
(Small or high capacity reels)
Create your very own music CDs! We can create "tracks" of your
favorite tunes and mix music from all of the above formats. Take some
songs from a cassette tape, a few from an old LP album and maybe some
from an old 8track tape. We can mix them together onto one CD for your
listening enjoyment. How cool is that?
We can also remove most of those annoying "pops, cracks and hisses"
commonly associated with those old LPs and records.
Audio Transfer Prices:
Cassette Tapes: $10.00* per hour of tape
Vinyl LPs: $12.50 * per album side
Other Vinyl Records: Please contact us for pricing*
*add $10.00 per DVD disc required (up to 6 hours of video per disc)

Transfer
options for Slides?
|
|
There
are two types of slide transfer:
-
High Resolution Scan - This transfer technique
results in the creation of individual digital files
for each slide that are then recorded onto a CD. As
the name suggests, the resolution quality of scanned
slides is much higher than those that are scanned
for television. Once put on CD, you can easily view
the slides by using your home computer. This is also
a great option if you want to print out any of the
images or even e-mail them to friends and family.
-
Slide Montage- This method of slide transfer results
in a DVD "movie" of the years gone by. The video
will open with a broadcast quality title and then
each of your slides will be displayed for
approximately 6 seconds. As one slide fades out, the
next slide is smoothly fading in, with music playing
in the background. This method is generally more
economical than the high resolution scanning process
mentioned above and may easily be viewed on your
television using a DVD player.

Transfer
options for Photos
|
-
Electronically crop out
unwanted areas of a photo.
-
Color correct the image.
-
Touch up scratches, rips
and stains.
-
High Resolution Scan - As with slides, this transfer technique
results in the creation of individual digital files
for each photograph that is then recorded onto a CD. This is
a great option if you want to print out any of the images in a larger
format than the original photo.
-
Get creative and combine
the elements of a couple or more photos together! This is a really
cool option for adding special effects to your photos.
-
Create a photographic
montage. As with slides, you can have a "movie" made of your still
images. Add music or "voice-overs for special effects and added
entertainment!
