NFSA Digitisation Supplier - Panel Member

Quality film and tape conversion from single tapes to whole archives.

Digitisation is the process of converting legacy media formats into accessible digital files. Our preservation specialists create high-quality files that are true to the source content and ready for distribution, edit or archive. We capture a large range of formats from film to 1″, Umatic, and Betacam video, to 1/4″, 1/2″, 2″ audio and more. Our secure digitisation suite onsite provides remediation facilities for cleaning, baking and repair. Chosen as a panel member by the National Film & Sound Archive, we are backed by more than 35 years of media management experience. Our technicians understand the formats and have the skills to bring your footage into the 21st century.

FEATURES

Preferred Media

Video, film and audio digitisation

Your legacy content is worth saving. No question.
Don’t neglect your company’s precious heritage. You could be holding onto an untapped treasure trove of shareable content. Are you wasting time and money chasing after end-of-life legacy machines and vanishing expertise? Digitisation is the only way forward. Preserve your legacy content so you can re-use, re-purpose and monetise content across multiple platforms, now and for years to come.

    Digitisation allows you to simplify your archive and put all your content in a central DAM, allowing for more efficient management. You might even save on your storage costs.

  • Preferred Media

    Deliver for clients and stakeholders

    Your legacy footage is literally irreplaceable. When an opportunity arises for re-use, be the person who managed the migration, not the person who threw it all away without a second glance.
