Your Photos & Slides to a DVD Video Slideshow
An interactive DVD can
contain a
combination of videos and pictures that can be organized anyway you
want. Each segment can easily be accessed from a menu just like a movie
DVD. Its the perfect choice for organizing, viewing, and archiving your
home movies and pictures. The reason for taking all of those images was
to have lasting memories to share with your family and friends. Bring
your old home movie videos, 35mm slides and photographs back to life
again to share your history with your future.
Ideas that can be
organized into a DVD format:
- An electronic slideshow at
viewings to replace or enhance a
photoboard.This allows visually impaired visitors to see the smallest
of photos.

Over Seas

or Daughter

or Grandparents

and share the hard work and creativity you put into them.

training programs for your employees or
POS demos for customers.

DIGITAL MEMORIES offers
an economical DVD archive
service for preserving your home movies, videos, slides and photos. We
start by transferring your originals to a DVCam master tape. This
process gives you the clearest possible recording. We then convert the
resulting digital master to DVD quality MPEG-2 files and copy them to a
DVD. The process is completely digital from start to finish, ensuring
you the highest quality.
We use DVD+R/W media and recording equipment for archiving your video
tapes and movies to DVD. This is the highest standard in the industry
for compatibility and convergence and is compatible with almost all DVD
players and computers with DVD drives. For conferences, meetings, and
special events you can play these DVDs in most new laptops equipped
with DVD and output them to a large screen TV or LCD projector.

Dramatic improvements in
digital imaging technology has made transferring slides and photographs
to video both economical and incredible. High resolution cameras,
scanners and powerful video processors available today make the process
quicker, easier, and the results are truly impressive.
Conversion to digital video makes it easy to view and share these
"video montages" with family members, friends, business associates,
students, clients, sales force.
Instead of 1000's of slides or dozens of carousels, boxes, myriad
picture albums, scattered and lost negatives... pictures can be
transferred to video tape or DVD. Once digitized these captured images
can be organized into a video album also referred to as photo or video
montages. The finished product is then copied to VHS tape, DVD or both.
Other tape and computer formats are also available. In addition to
photos and slides we can also transfer newspaper clippings, diplomas,
logos etc.

digitized from postage stamp size up to 8
x 10's.
- Each photograph is
handled individually, color corrected,
sharpened and cropped of unwanted backgrounds.
- Borders are added when
necessary.
- Title screens are added
to the opening and closing of the
montage.
- Smooth digital
cross-faded transitions are used between photos.

transitions effects can be added.

screen for 4, 6 or 10 second durations.

on any Dvd player, in any country.
- Background music and
narration can be included.
- We can make a wonderful
historical presentation from your photos
and slides.
- The original photos /
slides are returned to you. They are not

custom label and will be returned in a
protective vinyl holder suitable for mailing.
Our 
process
By having your
slides/photos transferred to Dvd's, multiple
copies can be made and shared with
all the family members involved. By creating a digital master of
your presentation all your copies will be of equally high quality.
We use professional digital
video equipment that is among the latest in non-linear, digital video
technology. Studio quality multi-chip cameras (not consumer-grade
camcorders) and high resolution professional scanners are used to
capture your images. They are then processed and digitally stored to
retain the highest quality.
