Collapsible content
How are "hours" counted?
One hour of VHS video content is counted as the following: "60 minutes of video footage, not including 'deadspaces', and including content that you request to be taken out". If you request for content to be taken out, it still has to be processed before it is cut and will count towards your total hours. If you want the beginning section of a tape to be cut out, please ensure that the tape is set to start where you would like it to start to avoid extra charges.
Can a final price be presented before starting?
A final price is determined by total video hours/photos processed at the end of the job (plus add-ons). If you know exactly how many hours/photos you have, you can figure it out with our rate.
How can I request editing?
VHS Tapes: Please leave a written note on the label of the VHS tape or on a sticky note stuck to the tape you want edited detailing what you want done. Please note there are extra charges for requesting editing.
Photos: Please leave a written note on a sticky note of what you want done and place it on the specific photo you want edited.
Standard Photo Options:
- Color Correction: $0.10/photo

How can I provide extra information about a photo/VHS tape?
If there is something we should know about a photo or video that could speed up the process of the job, please write it on a sticky note or on a label of a VHS tape and we will take it into consideration while reviewing.
