Phoenix 5K Film Scanner
Brand new for March 2023, our 5K full frame scanner takes individual photographs of each cell of your film. You can have your film scanned in 2K, which is High Definition, or 4K Ultra High Definition. AI technology is then used to clean up, restore colours and create an artefact-free perfect 24fps movie.
Cine Film to USB
We no longer transfer cine film to DVD; instead, we offer a modern solution by transferring your Cine Film to Digital USB Stick. But that’s not all! We go a step further and upload your precious films to the vibrant Alive Cloud. This means you can easily share these wonderful moments with your dear friends and loving family, creating lasting connections.
Discover the magic of reliving your memories with our cine film transfer services, where professionalism meets a friendly touch.
RAW Scan vs AI Restored
Service Features
Free collection and delivery
We are happy to arrange for our courier to collect and deliver your films from your work or home address. We'll provide you with a convenient one-hour time slot by text and/or email.
Delivered in HD or 4K UHD
DVD is standard definition (SD), which should never be used for film scanning as the quality is simply too low. We use HD, which has 5 x the mega-pixels of SD, or Ultra HD, which has over 20 x the mega-pixels of SD. Phew!
All films are cleaned
Before we scan your cine film, we always give it a thorough machine clean first. Cine film typically has a fair amount of dust and hairs floating on the emulsion, so it's important t remove this loose debris.
Colour correction
Cine film will always benefit from expert colour correction to fix colours that have altered and faded over time. Extensive the scene-by-scene remastering work is always included as standard for the best possible results.
AI Film Restoration
We now use AI to restore Cine Film. This time-aware enhancement system can help sharpen film while recovering accurate detail, remove harsh noise while recovering authentic detail in your film, soften the look of dust and scratches, stabilise the film and much more.
Delivered in True Cinema 24fps
99% of the time, film is shot at either 24fps, 18fps or 16fps. We deliver everything back to you at 24fps even if it was shot at 16fps. We are using AI machine learning to “predict” the best intermediate frame between existing ones, which gives indistinguishable results.
Free 14 Day AI Movie Hosting
All films we transfer for you are uploaded to our password-protected Alive Cloud; our AI analyzes and indexes your film library, letting you search for speech, text, people, vehicles, sounds and more.
Supplied on USB stick
Your films will be supplied in MPEG-4 format on a USB Stick. Plug into your TV to enjoy on the big screen. Then pop it into your computer to re-order, rename, and edit. Add your titles, music etc., to create amazing films.
