8mm, Super8 and 9.5 mm Film Transfer
Family Movie is based in Paris (France). We digitise 8mm (Regular8/Normal8), Super8 and 9.5mm HD (720p50) films. We only sell what we have produced ourselves.
Our method is particularly hands-on. Each film is processed by three people who each contribute to improving the digitalised result. We use a Flashscan HD scanner by German brand MWA. By digitalising Super8 into HD we can reproduce the full original image width. This cannot be done using SD because Super8 is larger than the 4/3 format.
Our prices are based per reel according to length.
Our best rates are for reels of 120m and longer.
We can deliver compressed HD digital files in H264 with a MOV or MP4 container. You need only to include an external hard drive with your order.
We can send your orders anywhere in the world using our UPS account.
Image/Film Stabilization
We offer a very useful stabilisation option. This is used to correct any mechanical flaws the camera may have had when filming. Generally, each Regular8 and Super8 image is slightly misaligned with the previous and following images and this can cause a slight shake when viewing. Some films are more flawed than others. Stabilisation is achieved once the film is digitised and generates a second version. We can therefore check how effective it is. If you choose this option, we will supply a before/after comparison using a sequence of your film to show how much has been corrected.
The maximum loss of image is 3%. Given that the scanner covers an area larger than your projector you will not notice a difference with the image that you know.
