Relive Your Best Moments with Our Expert Film Transfer Services
Nostalgic Media is a premier provider of film transfer services, specializing in the conversion of 8mm, Super 8, and 16mm film to digital or DVD formats. Our process is meticulous and designed to preserve your cherished memories while offering the convenience of modern viewing methods.
Initial Cleaning of Film Footage
Before any conversion takes place, we ensure that your film footage is thoroughly cleaned. Our expert technicians will clean your footage, removing any surface dust, dirt, or other foreign particles that could potentially interfere with the transfer process. This careful cleaning process not only enhances the transfer quality but also helps to preserve the original film, allowing it to be stored safely for future use.
Splicing and Repairing of Film Footage
Once the film is cleaned, we proceed to splice and repair any damaged sections of the film. Small, 50-foot reels will be spliced together onto larger 400-foot reels. This process also includes rejoining broken film, repairing bad splices, and checking for any other physical damage that could affect the transfer process. Our goal is to ensure that every frame of your precious memories is accurately preserved.
If we come across any sections of the film that are too damaged to transfer or are completely blank, they will be removed and you will only be billed for the amount of film that is actually transferred.
Custom-Engineered Transfer Process
At Nostalgic Media, we pride ourselves on using a custom-engineered transfer process, specifically designed to maintain the integrity of your original film. Our custom-built equipment and processes are designed to minimize any potential damage to the original film while maximizing the quality of the digital conversion. Our custom film-to-digital process ensures that the newly transferred footage is of the highest possible quality.
Dedicated Technician Monitoring
During the transfer process, a dedicated technician continuously monitors the footage. They skillfully adjust for color and contrast, ensuring that the digital output accurately represents the original film's vibrant colors and clear images. This step is essential in maintaining the nostalgic feel and authenticity of your cherished memories.
In-House Processing in our Secure Facility
All work is performed in-house at our secure facility in Atlanta, GA. We don’t ship out your memories to a third party like some other services might. This allows us to maintain strict quality control standards and ensure that your precious memories are handled with the utmost care and respect. We understand the value and sentiment attached to each reel of film, and we handle each one as if it were our own.
Our film transfer service is designed to be comprehensive and customer-friendly. At Nostalgic Media, we go the extra mile to ensure that your old film reels are treated with the care they deserve.

"Very thrilled
with the outcome of the 70 year old slides that you converted to digital files for me. The end product was a lot better than I expected. This was the first time I have seen pictures of my father from when he was a young boy in the 1950s. He passed last year and these keepsakes are very treasured."
