Local drop-off · digitizing since your closet started overflowing

Every tape, reel, and print — saved for good.

Video Master converts your VHS tapes, camcorder cassettes, home movie film, boxes of photos, and old audio recordings into digital files you can actually find, watch, and share — all done locally, by hand.

If it plays, prints, or projects — we can digitize it.

Twenty-three formats across four shelves of the media cabinet: videotape, prints and film photography, home movie film, and audio.

01 / VIDEOTAPE & DISC

Camcorder & VCR tapes

Anything that was ever loaded into a deck or camcorder, transferred in real time and checked for tracking and drop-out — including international PAL and SECAM tapes, not just NTSC.

VHS VHS-C (COMPACT) VIDEO8 (8MM) DIGITAL8 MINI DV BETAMAX BETACAM DVD CD PAL / SECAM

02 / PRINTS & FILM PHOTOGRAPHY

Photos, slides & negatives

Individually scanned at high resolution — not photographed off a lightbox — so faces and film grain stay sharp.

PHOTO PRINTS 35MM SLIDES NEGATIVE FILM

03 / HOME MOVIE FILM

Movie film

Cleaned, spliced where needed, and run through a frame-by-frame film scanner — sound reels transferred with synced audio.

REGULAR 8MM SUPER 8MM 16MM SOUND FILM

04 / AUDIO

Audio tape & recordings

Old recordings lifted off aging tape and wire and preserved as clean digital audio files.

Collect your originals plus your new digital copies.

About · 04

Why Video Master

Old tapes wear out. Film gets brittle. Slides fade a little more every year they sit in a box. Video Master has been preserving them since 1989 — we handle every original by hand, in-house, and hand it back to you alongside a digital copy you can actually watch.
