Prices

We could not practically call our auto mechanic for a price quote without first giving him the information  needed as to the year, make, and model of my car. And, in almost every case, he would need to inspect the car before he can estimate what work needs to be done before supplying us with a price quote.
The same holds true here. It is almost impossible for us to quote a price without seeing the media you wish turned into a production – especially for films.

However, here are some guidelines to get a rough idea of costs.

Pictures and slides average between $2 and $3 each depending on whether or not they need to be "retouched" in any way. 

Video (VHS/DV/Sony8/BETA) averages between $95and $120 hour of processed tape.

Film (8mm/Super8/16mm) averages $120 to $150 of processed film time. There are many factors which affect the price of creating your production:
 

• The quality and condition of film has a direct affect on jamming the telecine projector machine which, in turn, requires film splicing

• Some clients have their films on several 4” (3 minute reels) while others have spliced their small reels onto larger, 20 minute reels. Mounting, rewinding, and dismounting many smaller reels takes much more.

• Color correction and enhancement, is applied as necessary to make the film viewable even in extremely dark scenes.

• Special effects transitions are added throughout your film as each scenes change.

• Appropriate background music is added to your movie scenes indicative of the era your movies were filmed in.
   

Minimums
There may be minimum fee of $100 per production job no matter how small. It is not immediately realized but there is a great deal time spent on graphic arts for your production. We artistically design the DVD label and DVD case with one or more pictures taken directly from the material you supply us. Any additional information you supply may also be included in an index. This will be apparent after you receive your DVD.

Demo
If you wish, we can send you a demo DVD demonstrating our services. Simply email your home address to us and we’ll get the DVD to you right away!

Please keep in mind that the DVD production service is a very time consuming process which requires artistic as well as creative abilities in creating a “final cut” of your memories; completely edited and professionally packaged.
