Convert 8mm and 16 mm reels
In the past, before the vhs was invented, people filmed using 8mm or 16mm reels. These reels are called by the width of the film, 8 mm or 16 mm. So if you bumped into one, in your dusty attic, don't worry.
In Flashback Media Converting we convert 8mm reels and 16mm reels in spectacular quality.
We do not project the movie on the wall and shoot it, this technique affects significantly the quality of the finished product
All reels of 8mm, Super 8 and 16 mm are transferred in one of two methods.
Telecina - a system of lenses and mirrors designated for converting reels.
Frame by Frame- in this method we make a digital scanning of each frame separately and then we combine it again in the computer.
Once this is done you can get your digital film in one of two options films.
1. 8mm convert to DVD - Only for viewing on TV.
2. 8mm convert to Computer file in various formats (MPEG2, mp4, avi, etc.) -recommended for backup, editing and viewing
