That's the $64,000 question. Eh, pardon the reference. The fact is that we've seen price sheets posted on the web and even come up with some of our own. But the darn things are so complicated that people still leave scratching their heads. So here goes the short version. Old film: We charge for the splicing, cleaning, repairing, transferring and burning the DVDs. It usually comes to about $12 - $15 for each little 50ft reel. Audio and videotape projects: around 25¢ a minute plus $15 for burning the DVD or CD. We never do anything until you know absolutely the cost. So just call or email us with what you have and we'll price it over the phone. Fair enough?

Gosh we don't know, you have to tell us. But here's a handy guide: 3 in. reel = 50ft. 5" reel = 200ft. 7" reel = 400ft. larger reels usually = 800-1000ft. Now go to the Film calculator we have on the "Links" page and plug that in. Amazing how that works.

Until it fills up. OK, that's a dumb answer. We can put up to 2 hours on 1 DVD. That's a lot of video. It sure beats carrying around 2,000 ft. of film in a box.

Heck yes. That's the coolest thing about DVDs. You just go to the chapter you want and then whammo - there's Uncle Bill taking his teeth out, Or little Stevie's fifth birthday. You tell us where the chapters go and we'll put'em there.

Boy do we ever. Now you're talking. We don't offer any pre-packaged deals because everybody's different. That's the beauty of being local. You come into the studio and tell us how you want your project. Music, titling, sequencing, interspersing slides and photos in with video. The sky's is the limit. Yes, we even have sky.

Hey - we like you already. Sure we can. But if you have loads, I mean loads, (more than several hours) of those kinds of tapes we, being the friendly folks we are, can even tell you how to do them yourself. It might be that there is consumer hardware out there that would make it more cost productive for you. Now you can refer all those friends you have to us for other stuff.

Yes pretty much. All the ones purchased in the last five years or so.

For those of you who want to finish the products yourself we can provide it on most any type of digital format: AVIs, MPEG4, MOV, imovie, APPLE Final-Cut, AVID express-pro, DV-tape, DVD data, thumb drive, i-pod, digital picture frame, etc. Why not just let us download it to your external hard drive? We really cater to you tech-types.
