Who We Are
Video Rescue Specialists Who Care About Every Frame
Some videos hold irreplaceable memories - your grandmother's 90th birthday, a historic event, footage no one can reshoot. When damage threatens to erase those moments forever, we step in. Our restoration team combines state-of-the-art AI tools with frame-by-frame manual craftsmanship to rescue footage others consider hopeless.
We've worked on everything from 8mm home movies to corrupted digital masters. Scratched, torn, faded, water-damaged, color-shifted, warped - we've seen it all, and we've saved it. Every project gets our full attention because we understand: this footage matters.

Thomas Hayes

"Our museum had 16mm archive footage everyone thought was beyond saving. They restored 12 hours of it for our centennial exhibit. Patrons were stunned by the quality."
Dr. Helen Roberts

Preservation Tips
How to Protect Your Videos Before Damage Happens
While we can rescue damaged footage, prevention is always easier than restoration. Here's expert advice for protecting your precious videos.
Cool & Dry Storage
Store tapes and film at 60-70°F with 30-50% humidity. Avoid attics, basements, and garages where temperature swings are extreme.
Keep Away From Light
Store in opaque boxes or cases. UV light accelerates color fading in both film and magnetic tape dramatically.
Store Vertically
Stand tapes on their edges like books. Horizontal storage causes tape pack shifting and physical deformation over time.
Avoid Magnets
Keep magnetic tapes far from speakers, TVs, motors, and any magnetic sources. Even weak fields corrupt data permanently.
Digitize Early
Don't wait until damage is visible. The best time to digitize tapes and film is before they start to deteriorate noticeably.
Multiple Backups
Follow the 3-2-1 rule: 3 copies, on 2 different media types, with 1 stored offsite. Cloud storage + external drives = safer memories.
Exercise Old Tapes
Rewind and fast-forward your vintage tapes once a year. This prevents sticking and helps identify issues before they become catastrophic.
Archival Containers
Use acid-free, archival-quality storage boxes. Regular cardboard releases acids that damage film and tape over decades.
Common Questions
How damaged is too damaged?
Honestly, we can work miracles - but we can't recreate what was never captured. If a frame is completely destroyed with no usable data, we can often reconstruct it using AI and adjacent frames. Send us a sample and we'll give you a realistic assessment of what's possible.
Do you handle physical media like VHS, 8mm, 16mm?
Yes - we work with virtually all formats: VHS, Betamax, 8mm/Super8, 16mm, 35mm film, DV tape, MiniDV, and more. We handle the digitization at archival quality before restoration begins. Your original media is returned to you safely.
How long does restoration take?
Depends on the length and damage severity. Basic cleanup of a 10-minute video takes about 5 days. Full restoration of heavily damaged footage can take 2-4 weeks. Large archival projects are scheduled case-by-case. We'll give you a realistic timeline after assessing your footage.
Can you colorize black and white footage?
Yes! We use AI colorization combined with historical research to add accurate, period-appropriate colors to black and white footage. You can choose between a subtle natural look or a more vivid modern style.
Will my original footage be safe?
100%. We treat every piece of media as irreplaceable. Physical media is stored in climate-controlled archives during processing. All restoration work is done on digital copies, so your originals are never touched by restoration software. We return originals via insured shipping.
What formats do you deliver the final video in?
You get multiple formats with every project: an archival master (ProRes 4444 or DNxHR), a high-quality MP4 for easy viewing and sharing, and optional DVD/Blu-ray if requested. For large projects, we can deliver on external drives or cloud storage. Your footage is yours forever.
What if I'm not happy with the results?
Our Full Restoration package includes unlimited revisions until you're completely satisfied. Before starting major work, we provide a free test restoration so you can see exactly what's possible with your specific footage. No surprises, no dissatisfaction.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes! We work with clients worldwide. We provide detailed packaging instructions for safe shipping of fragile media, and we use fully insured carriers for the return journey. For extremely valuable or irreplaceable footage, we can arrange white-glove courier service.
