Questions

About old footage, restored

What formats can you restore?

Anything already digitized: tape transfers, film scans and old phone or camcorder files. If your footage is still on tape or film, we can point you to a transfer house first.

Do you invent detail that was not there?

Restoration sharpens and cleans what is there. Where a step adds detail rather than recovering it, we tell you and you decide whether to keep it.

Who owns the finished film?

You do. On final payment we assign you the rights we hold in the delivered work. We tell you up front about any third-party element, such as licensed music or stock you supplied.
