Preserving Memories

Heat, Cold, Humidity, Dust, etc. All of these things can raise havoc with some of your most prized memories. I am talking about videotapes, audiotapes, old films, slides and photographs. A better way to save all of these special moments is to have them transferred and converted to another format. One that holds up better over time. So far, DVD has stood the test of time. But you can also have video, audio and still images saved on external hard drives, jump drives or to the Cloud.
Mattke Media Solutions can accomplish all this for you.

Every day I am running minute after minute of videotape or foot after foot of 8 mm and Super 8mm film into my editor to burn DVDs.  I making sure that these family moments and histories are preserved for you, your kids, and their kids. I have also scanned thousands of slides and photographs and burned them to CD so they can be preserved and more easily shared. Old audio cassettes or even record albums can be transferred to CD.

Once I have your memories on a DVD or CD I can make multiple copies so everyone in the family can have their own personal piece of history. I use "print-to-the-hub" DVDs and CDs which means I print a personalized image on every disc I produce. If you have your wedding from 1980 transferred from VHS to DVD I will take a photo that you provide or a still frame from the video and use it to make a custom label.

Another personal touch I provide is that the finished DVD you receive will also have a Chapter Menu on it. If you have multiple birthdays, Christmases, Halloweens, or family vacations on your videotapes I split them up into chapters. When you pop in the DVD you can go to the menu and choose what you want to watch. No fast forwarding looking for where Grandma's 90th birthday is or your 25th anniversary or you daughter's first steps. Just click on the thumbnail photo of that scene/chapter and be watching it within moments.

So if you have any questions about pricing or how to go about getting your memories preserved just give me a call or shoot me and email. 920-559-0009 avgod@charter.net

Make that next family gathering a stroll down Memory Lane and watch those old tapes or movies OR look at the old slides or photos. Perfect Christmas gift or Anniversary gift!
