C&I Studios · Media Preservation
Your footage outlivesits format.
Tape decays. Film fades. Drives fail and platforms disappear. We move your memories and your masters off dying formats and onto media that lasts, handled by a working production studio, not a mail-order lab.
Future Proof the Past
Humans are storytellers. We have been preserving our stories since the beginning of time, on cave walls, on film, on tape, and on drives. No matter what format your stories live in, we can help move them to any format. Just tell us what you have and where it needs to go. We handle the rest.
Two lanes. One studio.
Whether it lives on a shelf or in the cloud, it comes back clean, complete, and in a format you can actually use.
Physical media
Off the shelf, onto masters.
We digitize on professional decks and scanners, frame by frame, and hand back clean digital masters alongside your originals.
- VHS, Betacam, MiniDV and video tape
- 16mm & 8mm film reels
- DVD, Blu-ray, CD and LaserDisc
- Cassette, DAT and reel-to-reel audio
Digital & cloud
Off dying platforms, onto solid ground.
We move terabytes between platforms, drives and clouds without losing a frame, and verify every byte before we call it done.
- Vimeo, Dropbox and platform offloads
- NAS to NAS and drive to drive
- Cloud to cloud storage migration
- Full media relocation and consolidation
How it works.
No accounts, no checkout, no guesswork. Just a straight line from what you have to what you need.
Tell us what you have
Reach out and describe the formats, the volume, and where it needs to end up.
We assess & quote
We review the material, flag anything fragile, and send a clear plan and price before we touch it.
We transfer & verify
Careful hands, pro equipment, and a full integrity check on everything we move.
You get it back
Originals returned insured and tracked, with your new digital masters ready to use.
“These are the only copies that exist. We treat them that way.”
