Back In Time
Have you ever wondered what was on those old home movie reels tucked away in some bedroom drawer or on some closet shelf collecting dust over all these years?? Let us help you resolve the mystery and in the process transport you back to another time - where you can become reacquainted once again with your then younger and long-forgotten family members and friends - to relive the pleasant memories of a bygone era, and in the long-term preserve and chronicle your family's history for future generations.

Phases of Operation
As a standard practice, we carefully inspect and preview your movie footage (and/or slides) in order to make the necessary repairs, edit out bad scenes, and replace defective splices. We then clean and lubricate your total footage in order to remove the dirt and grime that have accumulated over the years, thereby ensuring the overall enhancement of your image and optimum visual quality.
We then frame, focus, and import the projected image to our professional 3-chip DV camera via a high-end optic conversion system, resulting in visuals as clear and crisp as your original footage.

Additional Options
Customized titles of your choice can be included anywhere during the video presentation, and can be transcribed either from your notes or from reel cans/boxes themselves. A color opening title personalized with your family name and dates can either be superimposed and scrolled over the opening scene or shot from a title card, with graphic artwork included. Transitional effects between scenes can also be created (such as fade-ins, fade outs, dissolves, clock wipes, peels, etc.) at your request for an additional minimal charge.

We allow you as a customer your choice of any musical category to accompany your silent movies, photos or slide presentation - ranging from classical, popular contemporary, the Big Band sound of the 40's, easy listening, foreign, and jazz to Honky Tonk and Dixieland. You can even supply your own music from records, tapes , or CDs - or provide your own narrative on audio cassette to accompany designated scenes in your movies. We even take requests!

CUSTOMER COMMENTS

  "Thanks for doing an absolutely PHENOMENAL JOB converting our old home movies into our very own family DVD album. It was so enjoyable to watch the life of our family unfold. You definitely should include boxes of Kleenex with all your packages ;-) I am actually going to show this to my family either tomorrow or Monday. I can't thank you enough for the great presentation, attention to detail, thoughtful and enjoyable music selection and sound effects. What an unbelievably stupendous job. I wish there was more footage -- and I can't WAIT to see the reactions of my family. Many many thanks for the outstanding service you provided, making it so easy for us all to re-live our great family memories over and over again.."

  "Your tape was the highlight for our whole family's holiday get-together. Thanks so much!"

Ruth Conroy - Elmwood Park, NJ

  "I just wanted to Thank you again for the video you created of our family films. I appreciate the fact that you finished the job on time, and believe it or not, I was able to get Fed Ex to deliver the master tape to my parents in Virginia in time for Mom's birthday! They received the video 10 a.m. on Saturday, watched it immediately and absolutely loved it! They said it was the best present we could have given them. Thanks so much for helping us make that happen. I really think we scored a grand slam with this special gift!."

  "Can't get over how well you put everything together, and I can't help watching it over and over again. I only wish I had more film to give to you!"

Walter Cohen- Hackensack, NJ

  "Thanks again for your splendid work putting together the video of my family. We viewed the tape as a family at Christmas (as you know, it was a complete surprise to everyone) and turned out to be a huge success. The video had some delightful special effects, not overdone, just enjoyable. And at the same time you were sensitive to my detailed instructions of what-went-where, and the overall look of the piece. I think it was the most warmly received gift I ever gave. I look forward to our next project."

C. Walter - Kingsville, Md

  "Thank you for the wonderful job you did, it was well received by the board and added a dimension to our presentation that I don't think we could've achieved any other way. Again a million thanks!"

  "Last night I saw the film reels that you transferred for my brother and me. It came out great and we were VERY impressed with the soundtrack you did. The music choices were perfect and the transition from one tune to the next flowed beautifully with the change of scenes. You did a excellent and professional job! Thanks so much for finishing it on time for our Dad's 70th birthday. He simply loved it!"
