History
We started out in 1992 as a videography and editing service. We soon began to shoot and edit industrial and commercial projects. Our big client in those years was Boeing, specifically the C-17 program in Long Beach. In 1999 we bought a film library, a beautiful collection of 300,000 feet of 16mm travelogue footage and programs. From there we began to specialize in film transfer services, eventually becoming the only Orange County business with true Hollywood-style HD telecines.
