PRESERVE YOUR PAST: HAVE YOUR HOME MOVIE FILMS DIGITIZED AT VIDEO DOC PRODUCTIONS

Key Features of Professional Transfer Services

If you have boxes of old home movie film reels tucked away in a closet or attic, you're not alone. Many families still have 8mm, Super 8, or 16mm film reels that haven’t been viewed in decades, mainly because the projectors no longer work, or the film has become too fragile to risk running through old equipment. That’s where Video Doc Productions comes in.

With over 30 years of experience in the audio, video, and digital preservation world, we specialize in carefully transferring your home movie films into modern digital formats—so your family memories can be enjoyed again and preserved for future generations. 

And a big bonus: We do all the work ourselves. We do not have employees. No bulk machines or robots running your precious home movie films. Bryan, the owner, does all the work himself to ensure you get the best possible digital film transfer service.

FILM DOES NOT LAST FOREVER

Digitize 8mm film reels - Video Doc Productions, Leesburg, FL

1. Time is your Enemy!

Film reels degrade over time, even when stored properly. Color fades, vinegar syndrome can set in, and physical damage like warping or breakage can make the footage unplayable. The sooner your films are digitized, the better chance you have of preserving them in good condition.

2. Easier to Watch and Share

Once your film is digitized, it can be saved to a USB drive, or a Solid State Hard Drive, or even made into a DVD. That makes it easy to share copies with family members, post clips online, or simply watch them on your TV without the need for a projector or screen.

3. Keep the Original, But Use the Copy

You don’t have to throw away the original reels—we always recommend storing them carefully after digitization. But the real benefit comes from having an accessible version that you can enjoy without worrying about damaging the original film.

WHAT TO EXPECT AT VIDEO DOC PRODUCTIONS

We take a hands-on, detail-focused approach to every transfer project. When you bring your home movie films to Video Doc Productions, we:

  • Inspect each reel for damage or deterioration

  • Digitize using professional-grade equipment

  • Color-correct and enhance image quality where possible

  • Save the final video to your choice of format (USB, Solid State Hard Drive, or traditional DVD)

Our work is done in-house at our Leesburg Office—so your film stays safe and local throughout the entire process.

Family Watching Home Movie Film Digitized by Video Doc Productions

READY TO DIGITIZE YOUR FILMS?

Why would you wait a single day longer to save and protect your family home movies on DVD? Every single day you put it off, is one day closer to those films and home movie films becoming lost forever. Preserve those memories on a digital format! Home Movie Transfer Specialist in Leesburg, FL.

Home movie film reels were the best way families could document and preserve special events such as birthdays, holidays and Christmas Day! Home movie film cameras used 8mm, Regular-8 film reels before today's modern camcorders. Dads all around the world did the same thing. Load a film cartridge into the film camera, shoot 2 minutes, then had to flip the cartridge over. After processing, you would get back a 3-4 minute silent film reel. It took longer to load the film on the projector than it did to watch the film on the family's home movie screen.

Regular-8, Super-8 Film Reels digitized like legacy box
16mm Film Reel Digitized

Recently, we had one customer bring in his films that were close to 50 years old. He was just sick when we had to throw an entire 400 foot film reel in the trash!  It had become one solid brick of plastic. The film had melted due to heat, humidity and the developing chemicals eating away at the plastic film for over 50 years! Don't let this happen to your films!!
