We discovered two old cine films from ~60 years ago of a family wedding and I had them transferred to USB in the original state. When I learnt about Alive Studios I decided to send them the films to see what they could do, and the difference is stark. It brought my grandparents alive and it meant I could see them again for the first time in 40 years. Playing the raw and remastered films side my side gave facial features a clarity that brought the film to life. I am delighted with the results and thoroughly recommend saving up the pennies to give the treatment to your cherished movies.

We wanted to get our wedding Super8 cinefilm from 1980 cleaned up and transferred to 4K,including the sound. Alive Studios is local to us so we thought we would entrust the task of restoring our treasured memories to them. All done and now back with us after just three weeks - very good turnaround. Absolutely delighted with the results - and the whole family love it - even my mother-in-law who saw it at the weekend ha ha. Thoroughly recommend

Bringing Memories Alive—A Truly Magical Experience What a joy to have my father’s dusty 1950s cinefilm and audio tapes, long forgotten in plastic bags, lovingly restored. Thanks to Alive Studios, his military days didn’t just play—they came alive, unfolding like a vivid time portal into the past. It was nothing short of magical. From collection to delivery, the experience was first-class. Clear updates, swift service, and an incredible final product. The USB arrived in an elegant Tiffany-style box, securely mounted and beautifully packaged. The thoughtful addition of local fudge and a handwritten note made it all the more special. This is more than a service; it's a passion for a team as eager as you are to bring history back to life. Alive Studios don't just transfer old footage—they breathe life back into your history. I felt like I experienced the past in a way I never thought possible. Highly recommended!

I had some 25 year old camcorder tapes transferred to a digital format locally and was a bit disappointed with the quality. Searched the web and found Alive Studios so thought I’d try and see if they could do an improved job. All I can say is wow!!! The quality is amazing and it’s meant we have some precious family memories to keep forever - I honestly can’t recommend them enough. Jennie and her team are so helpful and friendly and answered every question I had. The Alive Cloud is great too especially the ability to let others view the videos on their phones or whatever device they have. If you want to bring some precious memories back to life, do not hesitate to send them to Alive Studios….you won’t be disappointed!

Brilliant service, from my initial phone call. I was talked through the process. They arranged collection of my tapes, assured me when they had arrived. I was notified at each step and my tapes were returned by courier. I had 10 hours of video tape uploaded on to a USB stick. The tapes are from our wedding, honeymoon and first years of our children. Precious memories we can all enjoy for years to come. Thank you for all your care at Alive Studios 🙏
