His team encountered some hurdles along the way, but they delivered above and beyond. Can't say enough about these guys and gals - they're quite simply the best. Great value, highly recommended thank you for saving our heirloom recordings!

I took the negatives out and showed the employees. He confirmed what I saw which was dents in my negatives from being folded.. I asked if this is something they usually do at this lab and he said yes. YES! Wtf He asked if I was going to scan them or something and I said yes I am (this order was dev only I scan all my medium and large format films.) I said regardless of whether I was scanning them I would not want my negatives handled this way. It almost seemed like he thought the negatives were trash? Like if they scanned them why do I care about the negs ‍ I told them I normally receive my negatives rolled and they come in a box or a spool to avoid damage. I said if I ever choose to come back (I won't) I would not want my film handled in this manner or anybody else's film really. BE AWARE! Negatives are treated like trash there

Excellent company!! We had over 50 years of photos in several boxes in storage. Most were…read morediscolored over time, and many I'd forgotten I had. From childhood, my siblings, my parents, and my children from newborn to now. I was always too busy to go through the boxes and connect with all the beauty inside. Then Picture Sprout transformed all these hidden treasures into an extraordinary, highly-creative, organized, caring, relatable, enhanced, and skillfully categorized digital archive. All was beyond my expectations! In addition, I compared their pricing with other places, and not only are they fair and affordable, but their pricing, considering the superb quality of the results, pleasantly surprised me. I learned that both owners, Blue and Grover, are award-winning artists and filmmakers. What they did for us is a reflection of their artistic and human values. I highly recommend them!

These were envelopes, photo albums and a lot of loose photos. A few details I want to say: In addition to getting a harddrive with all of the high quality scans, I received all of my photos back in 3 archival photo boxes that were also labeled and organized. I wanted to have all of the photos in iCloud, and they were extremely easy to work with on setting that up, so now all of those older family photos are in my iPhone in date order. I can just scroll back all the way, and share them with anyone in my family. They are competent, professional, knowledgeable and so nice! I can't wait to start another project with them making a printed photo album.

Short Review: Hardest-working, most honest, most reliable…read moreguys in the restoration business. They take good care of your assets, and go the extra mile to get top quality transfers and (re)masters. All at very reasonable prices. High recommend! Long Review: Top-notch services here! When I first walked into the studio, it reminded me of the recording studios I grew up going to with my dad when he was producing records 40 years ago. Big, thick, heavy soundproof door. Dimly-lit room. Vintage recording and mixing equipment. Old, black leather couch. Ripped carpet with tape on the floor. Uneven steps. The smell of old vinyl. Mmmmm! I fricken love coming to this place! In fact, I was so lucky to find it. Because the quality of work is so high, that they literally serve all of the classic Hollywood music, film, TV libraries. Literally all of them. At any given moment you can see the names of famous people on the outer cases of tapes laying around waiting to be transferred. All these years later, we're remastering dad's tapes, vinyls and 8-tracks. Round N Wound has all the equipment to do it too. I've used their services 4 times so far and I'm always so surprised at how reasonably priced they are for what we ask them to do. It's really amazing stuff. And they are very trustworthy with your valuable assets. You can't go wrong. Bring your stuff here!

Have you ever felt the pressure of an impending deadline? Has your own livelihood ever depended on…read morethe speed and efficiency of someone you don't even know? If you are ever in this bind again and your impossible mission has something to do with Media duplication, replication, authoring or even getting your demo reel edited and posted online for that next big audition, then pull yourself together and contact the folks at Lightning Media. When I say they do it all, I mean it. They are a true full service facility that can handle damn near any post-production or multi-media need. In almost five years of utilizing their services I have NEVER been done wrong. And trust me; I've given them ample opportunity to mess things up. So on Friday my boss calls me at the end of the day and tells me to get a project dubbed on DVD...what me worry? Then he calls back just a bit later and tells me to "make it 100 copies and make sure you get them delivered by Tuesday, I'll send you a list of recipients" OK, by this time it's 6pm. That means I got til 4:30pm Monday to pick up a finished product and stuff who knows how many FED EX envelopes and make the East Coast deadline by 6pm. I was seriously looking at my phone sideways as he's telling me all this. Of course, I'll need to put custom artwork on the DVD's, and of course the person with the artwork needs to re-format it first. Naturally, I have a crazed look in my eye as I head out the door with product minus artwork. I walk into Lightning Media and they're packed (was there any doubt at this point?). I explain my mission to the young lady and then tell her I absolutely need it completed by Monday afternoon no if's and's or but's. She doesn't even flinch and then has me fill in the info on the work order. When she asks me if I'd like any artwork added to the DVD's I answer "yes, but I don't have it yet." Like a zen warrior she picks up a phone, mumbles something and then asks if I can have it by tonight... "of course" I reply. "Then it's no problem" she re-assures me. Dutifully, I verify that our artwork was emailed in by 7:15pm that evening. Later that night my phone rings at 10:52pm from a number I don't recognize. I cautiously answer, "hello". It's Lightning Media, I can come by at noon on Saturday to pick up my order. And just like that, my impossible mission is accomplished. Yes, there are cheaper facilities in town, but would you pay just a tad more for peace of mind? I would, and if my ass is on the line I want someone who scoffs at the impossibility of silly little mission's like my own.
