Archiving Services
Video Archiving
Most archiving services offer just the transfer of your tape onto a DVD, with all the simple extras costing you more. This is not the case at AD Visuals. We will convert your tape and transfer it to a DVD complete with a background, menu chapters and label. The background can be a picture you provided or a generic background matching the material on the tape. All for one low price. If you would like to specify chapters please let us know; otherwise, chapters will be based on content.
The tapes we convert are VHS, VHS-C, Hi8, and MiniDV.
Additional Options Available:
COMBINATION ARCHIVING
Many times, you will have multiple tapes of the same event, perhaps from different angles. For example, three of your friends videotape your wedding for you, and now you have three tapes, each with something special on them. If this is the case, we offer the service of editing these together, turning it into one seamless DVD presentation. We can take specific scenes that you would like, or take the best shots and angels that we see, and put these all together. We also use something similar to a “picture in picture” style, to get the most of your taped event. (Please see samples below)
DELUXE PACKAGE – PHOTO MONTAGES
If you would like to have a photo montage added to your DVD, we can combine photos and video to make a montage commemorating your event. This goes great with weddings, anniversaries, vacations, or anything that you have video and photos of.
NOTE: Combining the archiving and photo montages will save you money.
We use only the highest quality discs that are compatible with the majority of DVD players on the market. You can access the following website to verify the type of discs your DVD player can play. http://www.videohelp.com/dvdplayers
All the discs we produce come with a standard color label with a photo or text, depending on your wishes. Lightscribe discs are also available upon request.
NOTE: Due to copyright laws, we will not archive any copyrighted material.
