Thank you for visiting MyMovieTransfer.com, the consumer division of Debenham Media Group! 8mm to DVD or 8mm to digital, what's best for you? An 8mm film transfer to video is an excellent way to enjoy your precious films far into the future without using a projector. Have your 8mm film conversion and 8 mm film to DVD transfer done with confidence by one of our skilled colorists. Want to convert Super 8 films of your family and friends? Converting Super 8 can now be expertly done with the same equipment used by the large Hollywood studios. If you have concerns about converting 16mm to DVD or 8mm movies to DVD, call and speak with a member of our staff who will be happy to answer any of your questions. Home movies to DVD at MyMovieTransfer.com We transfer Regular 8 film (also known as Double 8, Dual 8, or simply 8mm film), Super 8, 16mm, Super 16, and 35mm motion picture film. Our goal is to transfer your film to digital with the best possible image quality. By digitally transferring 8mm or 16mm films, your films will be archived and viewable for years to come. 8mm to DVD and 16mm to DVD are the most popular choices for film transfer. Our DVD's can be played on a home DVD player or a home computer. While most of our clients want their film transferred to DVD, we encourage all of our customers to also order a higher quality digital master on MiniDV digital tape or on a portable hard drive. While DVDs are an excellent option to view your film transfer, MiniDV tapes and portable hard drives hold higher quality information than DVDs (about 2.5x more information). MiniDV tapes and portable hard drives enable you to edit your film transfer on your PC or Mac using programs like Windows Movie Maker, iMovie, Adobe Premiere Pro, or Final Cut Pro. These programs allow you to add titles, music, and cut and paste your film transfer with ease. Having your 8mm, Super 8, or 16mm films digitally transferred not only ensures that they will last, but also gives you many options for the future. The entire staff of MyMovieTransfer.com has university degrees in film, video, or media. We love our work, and are constantly seeking new ways to transfer film with the highest possible quality and good, old-fashioned customer service. When your film is transferred, our colorists will correct and enhance the film to make the image quality the best it can be, whether it's 8mm, Super 8mm, or 16mm. Each colorist works on only one film at a time, ensuring that your film gets full attention and care. By the time you view your MiniDV tape or DVD, your film will have the best possible image quality, regardless of film stock - Kodachrome, ANSCO, AGFA, etc. Our thorough knowledge of film, video, and broadcast media has allowed us to develop new ways of scanning your 8mm, Super 8, or 16mm film. Rank Cintel telecines are designed for 35mm Hollywood films, where quality is of the utmost importance. We've adapted Rank Cintel telecines to scan 8mm film as well as 16mm and 35mm feature films at the same quality standards. Our high-definition optics allow 8mm, Super 8, and 16mm films to be transferred and viewed with the highest levels of color and clarity. Digitally transferring your films can ensure that you will have a digital master of your film for many years to come. We believe strongly in preserving the original film as well. When we receive your film for transfer, our first order of business is to put all of the film together on large (13- or 15-inch) storage reels. This is done for every kind of film - 8mm, Super 8, and 16mm. These storage reels will prolong the life of your film by reducing (and often reversing) the curl that can happen to film after years of being on small reels. Also, during this process we check (and, if neccessary, repair) any old splices that have failed. Your 8mm and 16mm film will be returned to you on these storage reels, but we always return the empty reels and boxes in which the film was sent. At MyMovieTransfer.com, we produce high-quality digital film transfers. We also do our best to enhance the shelf-life of your film. Our transfer process does not use film projectors or cameras. Projectors can be very abrasive on film. That's how film gets scratched. The abrupt starting and stopping on each frame can scratch or tear the film. The projector lamp can permanently burn your film. Our pixel-by-pixel, electron-beam scanning adds no heat to the film and moves your film gently and at a precise constant velocity, unlike the start and stop movement of projectors and frame by frame methods. Our commitment to providing the best possible film transfer has led to a sterling reputation. The New York Times, CNBC, The International Herald Tribune, Consumer Reports, Super 8 Today magazine, EventDV magazine, Woman's World, and Videomaker magazine have all mentioned or written about MyMovieTransfer.com. We have also transferred archives for NASA, American universities, many museums around the country, and many prominent American families. Feel free to read our client feedback. If you have any concerns about having your film transferred, we offer a free sample to prospective clients. Also, please feel free to look at our full resolution examples. Let us show you what we can do for you! Not sure how much film you have? No problem! Our 8mm, Super 8, and 16mm pricing pages can help determine how many reels you have. Our 8mm pricing is based on the number of 50 foot reels you want to transfer. If your film has been spliced together onto larger reels, our 8mm pricing page has a handy guide to help determine how many 50 foot reels are on your larger reels. At MyMovieTransfer.com we can also easily transfer sound film. We transfer Super 8 sound, 16mm sound (both optical and magnetic). We are also one of the only facilities in the world that can transfer Regular 8mm sound using Rank Cintel scanners. Our sound heads are at the cutting-edge of technology and the colorists are skilled in getting the most from analog sound tracks. We constantly purchase new state-of-the-art digital equipment to optimize the sound quality of your transfer. Your films will never have looked or sounded better! For our clients outside of North America, we can natively scan your film in PAL format to MiniDV tape, DVCAM, DVD, or portable hard drive. Our studio is based on very high broadcast standards. The scanners we use to transfer your film only output uncompressed digital video, meaning that the color-correction process for your film begins at an information rate of 270Mb/s. Most transfer facilities start with 25Mb/s (the data rate for DV on firewire) which is 11 times less information. This seriously handcuffs the possibilities for image improvement before the transfer has even started. By starting with the highest possible data rate, our film transfer allows a much wider level of color-correction than is possible with non-broadcast equipment. If you order an uncompressed film transfer, on a portable hard drive then you get all the data that our film scanners can output. If you order MiniDV digital tapes, we use high-end hardware format converters to change the 270Mb/s uncompressed Serial Digital Interface to a 25Mb/s signal carried over firewire. This compression is done after the color-correction on your film, meaning that when our colorists work with your film, the transfer will deliver the best images possible. Questions?
