In the digital era, do your holiday films in super-eight, or videotapes seem obsolete? Would you like to change formats to improve their quality or to keep them longer? It is possible today thanks to digitisation. Without removing the cachet of your old videos, this process will allow you to burn them on DVD or your computer.
In this blog, we will discuss how we can easily transfer our DVD movies to the house? How to equip? What are the steps to follow? What are the differences between doing it yourself or having it done by professionals? We answer all these questions.
Over time, our memories of dandruff are aging to the point that digitizing our old films is essential if we do not want to lose them. In addition to increasing the life of our memories, having them on DVD or Blu-ray allows us to consult them much more easily. There are two ways to transfer our old movies (8 mm, super 8, etc.) to DVD or Blu-ray: do it yourself or entrust this task to professionals.
Do It At Home
The idea here is to film with a video camera our films that are projected on a wall, a screen or white cardboard. Obviously, it takes us a projector (variable speed), which is not necessarily easy to find … and when it comes time to find lamps, it becomes even more complicated because they are rare and quite expensive.
We must stand close enough to our wall or screen to minimize light loss. Ideally, our image should be about 16 inches by 20 inches. Then we place our video camera as close as possible to the lens of our projector and we film. Once we have captured what we want, we can transfer everything on our computer and have fun with video editing software.
Leave Our Films to Professionals..
Preservetodvd.com is a company that offers a host of services including the transfer of 8mm films and super 8 on DVD or Blu-ray. Doing business with Film developing Los Angeles allows us to maximize the image quality of our films and saves us time. In addition, we do not all have a projector so it’s often easier to turn to people who have all the necessary equipment.
There, we check our films and repair them if necessary before starting scanning. We then pass the films in a tele-cinema, a device that takes 6 images per second, the whole thing is captured by a computer in uncompressed .AVI files.
After, we correct the colors so that they are as faithful as possible to the original colors, which allow offering a standard quality or Full HD on HDD, DVD or Blu-ray.
The Film developing Los Angeles also offers a video editing service. The fare is at the foot (length of the film) and we can go directly to bring our films to the studio of the company located in Los Angeles or send them by post.
