Testimonials

I have reviewed the video that you did and a video I had another company do and yours was of better quality and your prices are more competitive.

I will be bringing my 8mm reels to you shortly (the next couple of weeks) with a hard drive.  I will call you in advance of my coming. - John E.

"In 1954, when I was 9 years old our family took a trip to Alaska. My dad took a lot of slides and 8mm film on that trip. The last time that anyone in my family saw that film was in 1956. We no longer have a projector or screen so when I heard Sam with The Reel House speak at a Lions Club meeting I was very excited. I gave him all the film and asked if I could have some music on the film. He told me that not only would he add music but he would also work with me to put my own narration on the final DVD. I would not even have dreamed that this could be done. The quality of his conversion is unbelievable. Thank you for the DVDs that you have produced for my family." - Ord B.

"I have a VHS tape of our wedding that was taken in 1982. The sound quality was not very good and the colors were starting to fade. I gave the tape to The Reel House to convert and ask them to see what they could do. What I got back in the form of a DVD was a pleasant surprise. The colors were back, the dark sections where brightened were you could see the people, and the sound was enhanced were not only could you hear everyone talking but, you could understand them. Great job The Reel House!" - Art C.

"A little over a year ago I sent some of my 8mm film off to Chicago to be put onto DVDs. The place that I chose was a well-known national camera chain and does great work with film. It was very expensive and what I got back was extremely disappointing. I could have gotten the same results if I had projected the film onto the wall and video taped it. When I heard a speaker from The Reel House at a networking event I pushed them off. Sam, the owner asked me if I had any film that he could convert. I told him my story and that I was not interested. He asked me to give him that exact same film that I had sent off and if I was not pleased with the results, it wouldn’t cost me a dime. I took him up on his offer and I am really glad that I did. The quality of the DVD is far superior to what I had received from that national chain and the cost was just over half of what I paid before. I have sinse given The Reel House lots more film to put onto DVDs. Thank you, Sam." - Vic W.

"My dads 90th birthday was coming up and we wanted to do something special for his party. We gave The Reel House some pictures and some old 8mm film and asked if they could mix some film and some pictures into a history presentation. They said that they could and if we had some musical choices that could be added also. They worked with us on the project showing us how each step looked. The video ran like a slide show except for a very unique touch. We had a picture of our great great grandmother and The Reel House found some 8mm film of her taken at the same time. First the still picture would show up on the screen and then the film sequence would run. Not only did my dad get to see video of his great grandmother but also his great grandchildren were able to see their great great great great grandmother. What a piece of history for our family. The Reel House is now putting all of our film onto DVDs." - Penny B.

"My mother passed away when I was very young. My dad had a lot of 8mm film of them together and of us growing up. We still have a movie projector but over the years grew tired of dragging it out to view the film. I found The Reel House on the Internet and started to research them. I talked my dad into giving The Reel House all our film to put onto a DVD. We got back three DVDs containing just over 4 hours of our family history. The quality was far superior then what I ever expected. Not only did they remove all the bad spots, like washed out scenes and sunspots but they brought back the color in some scenes and put titles on the video that we had on the film boxes. When other family members watch the DVDs they will know who is in the scene and were it was taken. I am so glad that I found The Reel House." - Name withheld by request
