Reel Film Production did a great job on transferring my films to DVD and they completed the project in a matter of days. The added music made the films extra fun to watch. I was very impressed and plan on having more films transferred in the future. Thank you,

Visited my parents to show them the DVD. They loved your work and the musical add-ons. My sister says she hasn't seen our parents laugh and smile like that in ages. My father a former amateur photographer and dark room developer said your work was superb and that I did great finding you. Thought you'd like to know.

We just received the copies of our parents wedding from a 16mm film that had been stored in multiple attics, closets and basements for over 73 years. Not only did Reel Film Production do an outstanding job in restoring and transferring the images but dubbed in time-appropriate music which made the viewing that much more magical. We could see the blush on Mom's cheeks and the glint in Dad's eyes coming down the aisle - my siblings were delighted. Thank you so much for the care the Company took with my family's memories. This was particularly touching as my daughter just got engaged and can now enjoy her grandparents' special day! Best Regards and Happy Thanksgiving!

Great job! These 8 mm films from the early 80s have been waiting a few years for someone to put them on DVD. Reel Film Productions did it masterfully and my children, grandchildren, and I have thoroughly enjoyed watching them. Lots of laughter and a few tears. Thanks so much!

I would like to thank you for the excellent job you did in converting my Super 8 mm film into a HD DVD format . The 40 minute film was 51 years old and the colors were badly faded . You were able to restore the look of the film back to almost its original quality and add a very good music track to the finished article. I received the returned original film in less than a week. I highly reccomend your professional service to anyone Sincerely
Gary
I give you 5 stars. Was amazed you restored 60 year old film.

I’ve used three other services and when I compare the work, it’s not close. REEL FILM just does more, better, than the rest. It’s clear, it’s vivid, it’s slowed down substantially but is still a smooth playback. Playback DVDs, and a digital file were included. Music was added which was nice, too. Yes, it probably costs a little more than your other quotes, but it’s better, and no add-on charges for the Playback DVDs like some services.
You did an old 8mm film transfer for me last month Five stars (out of five)
We have been very happy with the Company's DVD transfers and restoration of our old 8 mm home movies. There is no one doing such high quality work in Georgia.
I sent Reel Film Production my 8mm silent home movies and what I got back was nothing short of amazing. The films were not in the best of shape but Reel Film Production cleaned them up, transferred them to DVD and added appropriate sound. Seeing and hearing the DVD was like going back in time. They did all of this within 2 weeks. I give them 5 stars!

Reel Film Production LLC is a reliable, professional company that does great work, takes care of your old films, and sends back a state of the art transfer.They are timely and considerate. Good job Reel Film Production!!
Thank you for your email. I am very pleased with the restoration of the films that Reel Film Production, LLC. performed on my 8 mm films. They are over 50 years old and haven’t been viewed in probably 40 years. The color looks good and the film speed is perfect. With the addition of the music, it adds a new dimension to old family movies. Thank you for your work. The procedure was very easy to work through and the timing was great
My experience with Reel Film Production... I had some old film reels that other people said they couldn't do anything with at that point. They were from 1974. I thought I would at least give it a shot. Not only did Reel Film Productions clean up and transfer the film but the quality was superb! I couldn't believe that I was able to watch these clips that other companies said were "lost." The speed of the service was fast and the communication was lightning-quick. I was so happy that I sent one more batch of little reels that was returned as professionally as the first. I am so glad that I found Reel Film Production and plan to use them for any other items of this nature in the future. They restore the past to the present! I would rate this service 5 out of 5 stars plus a bonus star for speed and quality!

I received your finished product today, thank you. The restoration of film that is 86 years old was quite amazing, and your sound effects were spectacular! I will be sending some Larger 400 foot reels next week for your Gold treatment plus the AVI disk. Very Nice.

Just wanted to say thank you for a great job of restoration of our families 85 Year old 16mm films. We just had my dads 86th birthday with many relatives attending that we all had not seen in a long time. They all loved the DVD. Great Job. Will get with you same time next year to get some more done. Thanks
Bobby D. Vincent

Kenneth A., Fort Lauderdale
I received my dvd's a few days ago and I can't tell you how thrilled I was with the results. You did a fantastic job with the 70+ year old films, and we loved the music you added to go along with it. I just hate that the other undeveloped film is useless but happy that I got at least one of them done. Thank you so much for your help with this project. I will definitely recommend you to friends and family! By the way, do you scan old slides? I didn't see it listed on your website. Have a blessed day!

Linda Silva
I'm now a believer! I just finished looking at what is now a wonderful family treasure. The film cleaned up better than I had hoped, and the audio that you added was really right on. Both the music and the sound effects. The flying chapter is much more enjoyable with the sounds of the jets coming over the music. The music selections for the family chapter were perfect. I thought that your service was a bit pricey, but it was worth every cent. I'll be sending along some more 8mm film next month. You can consider me a very satisfied customer. Thanks very much. Cheers,

Dear Reel Film Productions Professionals� Many thanks for the amazing film you were able to recover for us from the 1930s! Despite Hurricane Harvey you returned our movie film as a DVD movie, complete with titles, silent-film-era music, and visual quality that was truly impressive�within ten days, I believe it was. My 92-year-old mother and her 90-year-old sister each got one of the five DVD copies you sent and they were thrilled to see themselves as young girls, playing with their many cousins in their grandmother’s back yard and swimming on an outing to the lake. What fun to make this happen for them and to see their excitement. Priceless! I appreciate your professionalism, your promptness, and your results. Best present I could have given these ladies � and they look forward to sharing the movie with their children and grandchildren. Wishing you many more opportunities to put smiles on faces,

To all at Reel film production, I received the films back today. They are so nice. I had to wait a while before I could email you. I was crying too much. For the quality of film that was available 50+ years ago and affordable for working class people, the DVD's turned out great. I had forgotten how much my relatives used to gather with each other and enjoy each other's company. Both sides of my family have grown far apart from one another and this brought back some wonderful memories. I will show this to family members (my age, I turn 64 on Sunday, and older) who will remember these gatherings so they can enjoy seeing their parents as I enjoyed seeing my grandparents and parents at a younger age. I want, now, to do a couple more or so. I just need to look through them and choose. I don't need to keep all of my birthdays and dance recitals but a couple more of them and the family camping trips will be nice. As soon as I pick through them, I will send them. It was just wonderful seeing this film. I will let you know before I send more film. Again, Thanks so much.

I greatly value the work you did for me and it was outstanding! I brag about you to my friends all the time. I’ll always remember you when the need for your services arises in the future. I’ll take care of you. THANKS for thinking of me. Sorry you have to go through craziness with YELP. My best to you,

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I received the Old reel to reel films" from the 1940's & early 1950's today. I cried when I watched them. It was like having my family members who are long gone into my family room. You did such an amazing job with some challenging tapes. It was money well spent! Expect more tapes and VHS tapes. You are the BEST! With gratitude,
Susie Kaiser
Your UPS came yesterday at the projected time frame. I knew the age of the 8mm film would no doubt be a challenge. Rest assured I was delighted with your work and the songs you selected to accompany the film. They were perfect!!!! I haven’t seen this film for 40 years. What a trip. My children are looking forward to seeing the first of the DVD's. This was quite a nostalgic trip for me AND WORTH IT$$$$ !!! I was amazed at your "turn around time".... I will forward the next 7"reel. Gratefully.....

I sent in an assortment of old films that had seen better days. They came out better than when we used to show them on the projector. The background music and subtle sound effects really added to the viewing experience. I have lots of old family movies that need to be transferred to DVD and would not think of going to anyone else. The price is fair and the work is top-notch. Their "bedside manner" on the phone leaves little to be desired but you need to work past that. They are the best at what they do and they know it. Think of them as eccentric artists. Great work. You will be amazed. I'm sending mine in in batches to fit my budget. They are very willing to accommodate that. Try them once and you won't be tempted to go anywhere else.

Reel Film Production did a fantastic job with the many reels of my family's home movies. I was nervous sending them, not knowing if what I read on the website would be true. It certainly is true! The adding of titles, music, sound effects, and sharpening the picture really makes a difference. When dealing with Reel Film Production, I could tell they take their work seriously. That's what you want when someone is handling your family home movies. My family loves what Reel Film Production did to our movies, and you will too.

I searched and tried 3 other transfer companies to get my 8mm family films from the 1940's to 1950's. the work form these other company's was terrible. I contacted Reel Film Production and they pointed me in the right direction. First my big mistake was shopping by price.. I was thinking the work was all the same so I will get the cheapest thing.. WRONG.. on the first phone call I asked "how much do you charge" Bob's response was "what do you want your films to look like ? you already had it done 2 or 3 times and you were not happy, now it's time to get it done right". So he had me go to his site to view the comparison demo video showing other company's work compared to what he does. He said he re-does jobs like the one i have, several times a week, from all over the country. I sent my films to him and i was amazed that it only took 1 week not 8 weeks like before. and the quality was monumental difference, colors were corrected focus was clear film speed was normal not sped up like before.. everything was so much better. It came on 5 DVD's not just one and also came with a Computer file on a Hard Drive.. really cool. He's right .. you do get what you pay for! i recommend him to do the other side of my family's films. Reel Film Production is like one of those middle aged "artist" types so.. deal with it. Now my films are a Family treasure to hand down from generation to generation !
I had my films redone by Reel Film Production and it is light years ahead of what I had done in the past. I gave him permission to post a video showing the work I had done by another company that I was not at all happy with the results. old film like mine from 1950's,need to be restored first and not just a straight transfer. I recommend this company highly!
My wife took my 60 year old 8mm films to Costco to get transferred to DVD.. i just about had a fit ! they were sent off from that location across the US to California.. it took 8 weeks to get back. the quality ..there was none ! it was a joke.. a flickering out of focus keystone cop off color mess with awful elevator background music. My wife was thinking that it's all the same so she went cheap. I found Reel Film Production's site and the demo videos showed me what i already had done. in the before & after video it showed other company's work compared to what they do. he redo's this all the time for people that had it done by another company and were not at all happy with the results. After ONLY ONE week a got my films back on 5 DVD's not just one and also came on a hard drive in a .avi computer file so i can edit it, upload it to YouTube or re-edit it . it was beautiful colors, clear, not jumping or flickering.. it was like watching the history channel. you get what you pay for.. best money spent. now i can give this to my family to be enjoyed years to come. great job, highly recommended

Looked all over the country for a company to Archive our inventory of 16mm Historic films from the 1920's to 1950's. We had approx. 300,000 feet that we needed on a computer file. Reel Film Production did a great job. It's a specialized field and only found in Burbank CA. ( Hollywood Studios) we start with one reel to see what it was going to look like. Their website was informative showing what a straight transfer looks like compared to Film restoration.. it what we were looking for.

I just wanted to let you know how much I love the work you did on our family films. The music is great and adds a really lovely dimension to them. I can't wait to get to Florida to share them with my 89 year old parents! Thanks Again.
Jeanelle
First let me thank you for the quick response. Second, you have no idea how seeing my husband on the video affected me. I can’t stop crying for the loss of my partner, my soul mate, my life. I received the package yesterday and haven’t stopped crying. I could not have asked for better service or quality of the DVD. I will cherish it for the rest of my life. Thank you so very much!
