Cine Transfer Process

BENCHCHECK :

Our first step is to examine each film and where needed remake any film splices. Where possible we remove any totally black or clear sections of film to give you a better viewing experience.

FILM CLEANING :

Over time, static attracts dust, causing dirt and scratches to appear on the film image. Our liquid cleaning process eliminates the surface dust and also reduces the thickness of black or coloured scratches..

TRANSFER PROCESS :

For each transfer we make sure that your films are treated with care and respect.  Colour, contrast and brightness levels are adjusted to improve the digital quality of the cine film image during transfer.

We recommend that you keep your original films for future generations to discover and to consider for the next generation of storage technology. We also store an electronic copy of your films which we hold for six months.
For over 35 years we have transferred films to many formats.

What clients say about us!

We would like to thank all our customers who have kindly allowed us to share their comments.
We would like to say a big thank you for copying the 4 super 8mm films recently of some cricket from the 1980s and of our son 20 years ago to DVD and Quicktime files. We are especially grateful for the quick turnaround of the material. They were loaded up on to Facebook that evening for the cricket club to share and enjoy. We set them to music and they have made a lot of people very happy.

I just wanted to thank you for sending my cine transfers back so quickly! It took me back 30 odd years when I watched them, mum and dad are going to be so pleased that they can watch them now without having to get out the step ladder to set up the projector, pull out the big screen and re-arrange the living room so we can all see! It was the height of technology back then and we were the first ones in the road to have one (we had a colour TV and a new car too!) Thank you so much you have restored my faith that when we ask someone to do something, they actually do it!

Many thanks indeed. I am so pleased with the results that I just telephoned my friend with all the good news. The transfer of all those old films is simply superb

This is a very quick email to thank you for all your hard work in putting our reels of Super 8 onto DVD - they're lovely and we're thrilled to bits with them. All being well, I will be in touch with you again when we're found any other reels. All best wishes for Christmas and the New Year.

Received my cine films and Hard drive earlier today and wanted to thank you. The films look fantastic and better then expected. The colour film of Blackpool tower and the beach with my mum and the ten year old version of me brought back happy memories. My uncle is interested in having his cine transferred so I will give him your details, thanks again.

We are delighted with the result and would recommend you to anyone for your professionalism and quality/speed of results. And as for whether to transfer or not: DO IT ... it's fantastic to be able to see this footage so conveniently, to be able to edit it and take stills from it, and to preserve it from future loss or deterioration.

I would just like to say that I am very satisfied with the service you provided to me. I have now had an opportunity to look at one of the DVDs and - although it shows 30 year old films, with all the consequent picture / sound deterioration that that entails - I am well pleased with the quality of pictures I'd not been able to view for many years.

Very happy with the service received, the time taken to complete the transfer, the competitive pricing and the digital files. The whole family were so excited to see the footage - those films are such a special part of our family history. I would definitely recommend Bluprint to anyone.

Hi Susanne I thought the service was impeccable. Fast, informative and correct. John gave me brilliant email communication too. Even among all the Christmas chaos these files could not have been returned to me any quicker than they were. I would highly recommend your services again.

Many thanks for the safe and prompt delivery of our films. You did a professional job in processing 3,400 ft of film, in 40 or more reels, in one week. The quality is excellent, especially of 8mm films we took when living in the USA 37 years ago! We will be pleased to provide a reference if needed.
