HD (High Definition 1080p) transfer of your 16mm, Super 8 or Standard 8 on to digital 1080p files to
watch, edit and enjoy.
All transfers are digitally enhanced to make your films more vibrant, clearer and brighter.
How are the HD Cine Transfers Supplied?
The High Definition files are supplied on a USB Hard drive
which you would supply us with your film.
What HD Files do you Supply?
The files are supplied by default as QuickTime ProRes 422 1080p Progressive.
Please make sure your system is compatible with these types of files.
You can download a very short HD file here to check compatibility.
We can also supply Mp4 files which are more compressed and suitable for
many of the new media players found in Televisions, DVD players and game consoles.
To maintain
image quality we recommend you have the full size files rather than a smaller alternative.
You can easily modify the files with your own editing software to create your own
alternative file formats for a number of other applications.
The actual frame size will be 1080x1920 and your cine film frame will be centred
iside the actual HD frame. Remember HD formats are 16:9 rectangular in shape whilst your cine film is
4:3, square in shape.
This results in having black bars at the left and right sides of the screen image.
Filling the frame would either result in a sqeezed image or a cropped image.
Using this method allows the full captured cine frame to be shown in acordance with the ratio of the high definition frame.
A very short 10 second HD sample file can be downloaded here.
