Film Formats
We can convert all type of film for ‘web ready’ playback and also offer film restoration and cleaning services via the use of digital intermediates as part of a package – for example if you are looking to master the film back into digital format, for example, we are happy to arrange a conversion, digitisation and restoration process. Conversly we can also take digitally sourced content and make it look like film through various post production techniques.
