This order was for four Hi-8 video tapes I shot around 35 years ago. The whole process was, yet again, excellent from start to finish. Great communication throughout each stage and very good results. The work done, Mpeg-4 + ProRes, gives a result far, far better than the digitisations I had done before I found Alive Studios.

Great customer service, I was kept informed at every stage of the process. A very poor and aged video recording is now watchable again.

The process took longer than anticipated but the results are very good as I hadn’t seen the films for 70 years I was surprised by the quality although some were a bit wobbly perhaps that was due to the camera operator
Yes I would recommend alive studios because in Norfolk I couldn’t find a company who could do it

Love the communication each step of the way. Great service and very satisfied with the results.

Alive studios did a fantastic job restoring my family movies. I’m sure my grandfather would gave been very pleased to see them looking so good. Customer support was excellent. A couple of issues and requests were quickly resolved.
Would recommend to others looking to restore 8mm film.
Top marks!

If you want a 'quality' product, be it a digital scan of a cine film or upgrading of old video tapes, I can thoroughly recommend Alive Studios. I have been using them for years and have never been disappointed with the results.
I was recently astounded by the quality of a scanned 8mm Super 8 cine film using their new UHD 4K AI processing technology.
Great communication too!

Another 2026 job from me returned by Alive Studios. And another job of digitising video Hi-8 tapes I filmed around 35 years ago very well done. As for recommending Alive Studios to others, my next order for video 8 tape digitisation by them is packed and ready to go very soon!

I came across a metal cylinder containing 20 reels of cine film taken by my father over 60 years ago. They were in poor condition with clear signs of dirt and mould but I decided to research to see if they could be recovered. I choose to use Alive Studios, impressed with their prompt and comprehensive responses to my queries and the restoration services they said they could provide. My expectations given the condition of the film, confirmed by Alive Studios as extensive dirt, mould, colour fading and vinegaring", were not high. When I received the results on a Memory Stick on the agreed delivery date I was amazed at the results! Alive Studios have done a brilliant job , making the films easily watchable and bringing back long forgotten childhood memories. I have no hesitation in recommending Alive Studios and plan to use them again. Definitely worth the cost to recover irreplaceable memories.

Searched several sites and was wary of very cheap services offered as video tape of my mothers 80 th birthday was filmed in 1992 so questionable if it was still a viable project.
Lady i rang gave me very clear details of their proceedures , technical abilities and various formats.
Ready in 2 weeks, brilliant result, we have mum back with us and can hear her voice again.
Great after service and follow up . Ten out of ten Alive Studios Teignmouth

Do it! Do not hesitate! I’m so glad I found *** and Alive Studios. The communications have always been prompt, professional and friendly. I had lost hope of seeing precious memories again during to my video tapes being stored in what turned out to be a damp room. One provider had already said they could not be saved. I almost threw them away. But then I heard about old footage being saved for museums and similar so I searched and found Alive Studios. I explained, and they said they would try their best…

Success! They put so much work into them and due to their efforts I now have precious footage of family members who sadly passed on too early. It was emotional! Plus showing my adult daughter footage of her as a baby was worth it alone!

Trust them with your memories as they will be in the safest of hands. I highly and unreservedly recommend them and have been spreading the word! Friends and family are now scouring their lofts for old fashioned formats to be carefully transferred on to a memory stick!
