                    We cannot give you a solid price estimate as each production is unique. We have clients who have wanted  very complexed productions, and for whom money was no object. Those clients are always welcomed for they demand the best.
We have also many clients who want straight forward work, and we deliver there too. Quality is the same, simply very good, but the complexity has been eliminated, thus a lesser cost.
For these, a quick review of our basic price structure  will give you a close estimate...

      You may wonder how you can select the images you will want...
               Well, you can use a VCR with real time readings ONLY, (no counter numbers!!!) i/e in hrs, minutes or seconds and give us the locations, or preposition the tape close to the exact spot from which a videoprint will be made, OR... send us the tape (if you have a number of different selections...), and we will copy it with ...Time Code (an electronic display showing the exact location of the image in hours/minute/seconds ) on the bottom of the TV screen, so you can clearly read the exact location of your pictures. We would keep the original at our office, send you the time coded copy and wait for your fax/letter or call with your list of locations. When the order is ready, we would ship everything, including your original tape back to you... SIMPLE!. We suggest, for quality sake, to always provide us with the original tape.

 If you can't, make sure the copy is/was done at STANDARD SPEED (SP ) only,
which means 2hrs on a 120 VHS tape, NOT 6 hours... There is a major drop in picture quality when we work from extended play recordings...We would RATHER not have to. Thank you! 

• Great for family, business, promotion or security. Call us for details on this very unique service. 

• Go from 8mm, HI-8, VHS C, VHS, S-VHS, Mini-DV and DVD  to most North American formats and vice versa! 

               For the everyday consumer, editing means selecting the family's finest moments chosen from many hours of recorded events and creating one shorter tape that you'll be happy to show your friends. Great for weddings, too!
               You select the clips you want to keep from a VHS copy we would have made of your originals, with, on the bottom of your TV screen ,TIME CODE ,which is the exact reflexion of where you are in HRS, minutes and seconds in your tape.
               When you have selected the in and out points, send us your edit decision list by mail or fax and we will edit your production according to you, with some added suggestions for a polished look! 

               For those in business, post-production is a must for an impressive presentation. Music, titles and computer graphics all work together to set your product / or presentation apart from the others.
