CINE MAGIC truly lived up to its name

CINE MAGIC truly lived up to its name, guiding me smoothly through each step and ensuring I was constantly updated. They even took the time to call me, suggesting that incorporating music could elevate the experience, which turned out to be spot on. Witnessing the final product was a revelation; seeing century-old, fading films beautifully restored onto a disc was nothing short of miraculous. My gratitude towards them is immense. Jim R

Delighted customer

I have recently had an 8mm film, over 50 years old, transferred onto a DVD.
I am so pleased with job you have done, far beyond my expectations as the tape was so old, and some of the sound track was damaged!
I now have a clear vision and sound of ‘grandad’ for my six grandchildren, that he was sadly, never able to meet. The DVD shows their grandad at 32 taking great delight in his hobby of radio controlled aeroplanes!
We are a very happy and grateful family!!

Prompt, quality service at a bargain price - and I have tried four others recently

The price is the lowest of the five firms I have tried, apart from one 50p cheaper. I had my DVD within a month, which is good in this business, it seems. Crucially, as far as I could tell, the quality of the finished product was as good as any of those I have tried. Others do things like free collection and delivery, adding titles, letting you design the DVD box using your own picture, and even enclosing complimentary fudge, but all I really want is the pictures. While some services offer to create menus and so on, I suggest this is best done at home. I have invested in the best editing software I could find, which I recommend as well worth it if you have the time and money. With this you can enhance the picture quality a bit, reducing some of the shake and graininess and making the colours a bit clearer. You can also add titles and subtitles, cut out annoying joins, flashes, and shudders, and create your own DVDs with menus, combining two seven inch reels of film on one DVD.

John Warner 'Cubism'

At the beginning of the disc the format is wrong, cutting out some important titling, The whole film has been transferred at the wrong speed, slowing down the pace of the commentary. Part of the reel was not transferred. Altogether, the disc is quite useless.

Fantastic service!!

We had super 8's put on to a DVD and Cine-magic provided a great service. We opted to have the film without music but we're advised by someone at Cine-magic that the film would be better with the music and he was definitely right! We were so impressed with the service that we have dug out nearly 300 slides to turned into digital. Thank you

Transfer of various old films to disc

From start to finish CINE MAGIC been just that, keeping me well informed at every stage of the process.Even phoning me to advise me that the addition of music ( contrary to what I had thought ) would enhance the experience. And they were right.
I was amazed when I viewed the end product, To bring the films, some of which were one hundred years old and deteriorating, back to life on Disc was incredible. I just can't thank them enough.

They did exactly what I always hoped they could. Cine Magic, bril.........

I recently lost my wife, and discovered a very old cine film of our wedding 50 years ago. The hand held projector was all rusty inside, the film looked in a poor way etc. but, as this was the one and only film of my beloved wife, I sent it off to Cine Magic in the hope that they could somehow provide a lasting memory for me. I was amazed at the finished product they were able to produce. The DVD quality was first class, they had added music, the film title that I had requested if at all possible, and provided a service that I thought was long gone. Thank you indeed Cine Magic.

An easy and reasonably priced serice.

The whole experience was simple, from the on-line form requesting the service to receiving the disc. They even phoned me to let me know the item was in the post to me. The result was as I expected from a very old amateur film but the experience of seeing so many people from my past was well worth the cost.
Thank you.
