Home videos to DVD Options

[homevideovault]

Hello all,

I'm a student returning to Newbury for summer and am finding genius ways to fund myself before going back to uni in September. I've come up with a great service that I think most people want but aren't too sure on where/how to get it.

Basically, I convert your old home videos to DVD. It seems most families have boxes of home videos from the 80s and 90s but with the decline of VHS they're just gathering dust and don't get watched. By transferring this footage to DVD I can significantly improve the picture/colour quality but more importantly ensure it's on a format that won't become dated. I package them very neatly with whatever typewritten information you like, as well as putting menus in the DVDs to make navigation easier. Obviously if you prefer I can put it on memory stick/video CD or whatever other formats exist.

One of the reasons I'm offering this service is that I had such a frustrating experience finding it myself. It seems no companies offer it at a decent price, and to do it yourself you have to buy and set-up all sorts of hardware/software that don't like working with each other. Being a bit of an editing enthusiast, it was worthwhile for me so I may as well take advantage of the position. Whether it's one, two or fifty hours of old memories you have lying around, it's well worth getting them updated to a digital format. One advantage that springs to mind is once you have digital copies, you can duplicate them to friends/relatives with relative ease.

If you're interested please email me at homevideovault@gmail.com. I am based in Newbury so will have no problem collecting materials from you. Just say roughly how many tapes you have in mind and we'll go from there. Spread the word too :-)


All the best
