To look backward for a while is to refresh the eye, to restore it, and to render it the more fit for its prime function of looking forward.

DIY - How it works -We transfer your film via our normal process, but rather than providing you with a DVD Video of the final product, we put the files on your external hard drive or onto a number of data DVDs. You plug the external hard drive into your computer or load the files off the data DVD, launch your editing software and start editing. The video is stored in a typical Windows AVI file as DV (Digital Video) which most consumer video editing programs can handle.

Once you have your editing done, you use a DVD Authoring program to author your DVD and then a DVD burning program (which may be included in the authoring program) to burn the final video to DVD!

The cost to transfer the files to a hard drive: $7, or to a Data DVD $7/DVD (each DVD can hold approximately 20 minutes of video).
