We can help restore your 16mm film from improper exposures, age, color loss, and more. Let us add ambience to your film with titles, transitions and music.

 
16mm film has been around since 1923. It was introduced as as an inexpensive alternative to 35mm film for amateur film makers. 16mm film also had two sound options: magnetic and optical. Much later on, Super16mm was created for a larger picture while sacrificing the audio. For more on the history and information of 16mm film visit Wikipedia
