Julian Fletcher Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 Hi, I have about 1000ft of bolex home movie super 16mm that I'd like developed and telecine to a quicktime, really just to check the footage. Does anybody have any experience with these guys? They are based at Pinewood so I assume I (or a courier) just passes through the gate and drops it off? Alternatively, does anybody know of any UK based companies that could do a similar job - they are mixed films, so 50d and some 500t all on 100ft reels. Like I said, just looking for developing and telecine to a quicktime. Am very much on a budget!! Many thanks for your help Best Regards Julian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glen Brownson Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 I've used them as part of Frame24's film & processing package. They need a minimum of 400ft to develop. Not sure if you can go direct and if they have a minimum requirement. I've found them very efficient, developing and scans were spot on. Developing and scanning took a few days. GaugeFilm also do developing and scanning, but their turn around times are usually longer, about 3 weeks depending on what you want, their website gives details. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian Fletcher Posted June 2, 2019 Author Share Posted June 2, 2019 Hi, thanks for the reply. I have sent them an email to their general inbox, but will try Martin for sure if I don't hear back. Glen - thanks for the reply, with the Frame24 package, may I ask what sort of scan you got with the package, with no additional charges? I used this package with Cinelab a couple of years ago and had to pay extra for a 2K scan. I checked it today and it said 'best light transfer to HD (apple Pro Res) or 2K Scan' - so seemingly one or the other. Its not clear whether the 2K Scan attracts a surcharge. What did you get?

Glen Brownson Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 I can't be certain as it was a while ago, and I think they have changed the format of the deal now, but I think it was 2k. I only ever went for the basic package and the results were always excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
