Don't be like Clark! Get those film reels out of the attic now!!! Let us digitize them for you. There is still time to have them ready for you before Christmas/Hannukah.

10/17/2024

The sooner, the better. Cut-off for Christmas/Hannukah delivery is November 22. All work is done in our Easton studio. Why take a chance on mailing away?

10/10/2024

We know. You have a huge collection of VHS movies you would love to transfer to digital. However, Marsh Video will not transfer them for three reasons: (1) Copyright infringement; (2) Copyright infringement; (3) Copyright infringement. (NOTE: Many movies can be purchased as DVDs from Amazon, Walmart, and eBay.)

Trying to figure out how much film you have? This chart should help. Pricing starts at 20¢/foot to transfer to a digital format.

09/30/2024

Special from now until December 1. With any film transfer, you will receive a free USB drive. You must mention that you saw this on Facebook. Pricing starts at 20¢/foot for 8mm/Super 8mm film. (Minimum order of $25)

09/13/2024

Hannukah and Christmas overlap this year. Get your films, slides, prints and tapes to us for digitizing before December 1 to ensure you'll be ready to give the absolute best gifts possible. Imagine sharing your family's precious memories. Call us for more information or send us a private message.

And our pricing is more than competitive with Legacy Box, Kodak and Scan Cafe. Why mail them away when there is a local studio who can digitize your memories? (Make sure the video is set to HD and sound is turned on. ) https://www.facebook.com/marshvideoproductions/videos/933679480332217

Can't decide if colorizing this one makes the lady on the right less scary or not. (Original was taken around 1910.)

08/20/2024

My second grade class photo. Original was black and white. Simply fascinating. Love this software program.
(I'm the sixth one from the right in the back row.)

08/06/2024

Another one from the batch of old photos. I like both versions, but the colorized version looks almost like a painting. Pretty cool.

08/06/2024

This is my first digital transfer job since I got my new colorizing program. On the left is a newspaper story about this 1909 wedding in Federalsburg, Maryland. On the right is my colorized version of the photo. Pretty cool, if I do say so myself. (Note the baby overhead in the bushes.)

08/06/2024

We are currently working on a major slide transfer (1000+ slides) and we think it is helpful to remind our potential customers that it is very helpful and more economical to cull your slides first. If you have three shots of the family sitting at the table on Thanksgiving 1985, we will transfer all three (unless they are identical). We always recommend that customers concentrate on only keeping slides with family and friends in the photo. (A shot of the Grand Canyon is really only important if Grandmom is in the foreground. You can find much higher quality photos of the Grand Canyon online.) And if you no longer have a slide projector, viewfinders are available on Amazon and eBay. It is worth the time and the investment. (And we convert all slide formats.)

I am having way too much fun with this software.

07/18/2024

Got an email this morning. This is why I continue to do what I do: "Phyllis - My husband and I watched everything last night, and we are so pleased! There is video of my husband’s father who died in the 1960s before his 4th son was born, so your work is a treasure for the Cox family. Just had to let you know and thank you again for your good work! Take care…~Diane"

07/18/2024

One more. Loving this software.

07/17/2024

Offering a new photo-colorizing service. The original is from around 1912. What do you think?

06/26/2024

Ordinarily I do not repair tapes that have mold. However, today I acquiesced and decided to tackle one. Apparently the customer was desperate and had tried everywhere. No one else would take on the job. So I put my mask on (I still keep them on hand) and got out my trusty fine screwdriver set, and went to work. In addition to the moldy tape (which I trimmed off), there was a problem with the reel lock in the cassette shell. (Being a pack rat pays off sometimes. I still have a stock of unused VHS tapes here in the studio.) I put the original tape in a new shell, and voila! Another precious memory saved.

What will you do when your VCR no longer works and you can't find a new one? Don't wait. Have Marsh Video Digital Transfers convert your VHS (or other tape formats) to digital. Make sure sound is on. (Love "Don't spit on the cake.")

03/30/2024

We are now offering with all film transfers, free USB drives (i.e., thumb drives). Prices for digitizing films begin at 20¢ per foot). Call Marsh Video Digital Transfers for more information or send us a DM.

03/15/2024

If you want your old films digitized AND still have a projector, it would be helpful for you to review them first before bringing them to us. It is an opportunity to label and sort them, making it a breeze for Marsh Video to have them in the correct order and title each reel. I am currently working on some films that the customer had reviewed, numbered and labeled. Helps the editing process. (If you don't have a projector, we have options for that. Give us a call at 410-822-9010 or send a DM to Marsh Video Digital Transfers for more information.)😊

Photo from 1918 digitized by Marsh Video. Three sisters. What a keepsake for the family! (Although we are Marsh Video, we also digitize photos, slides and negatives. Give us a call at 410-822-9010 or send us a DM for more information.)

A new customer brought me some old negatives to digitize into positive images. She also brought me something I had never seen before. A tintype from the 1800s. Pretty cool. I had never seen one in person before.

One of the fun aspects of doing media transfers is learning new things. A current customer has left me quite a few negatives to convert to positives, none of which are "normal" sizes. What appear to be 35mm negatives are actually the 828 format. Same film, but no sprocket holes. Very interesting history.

828 is a film format for still photography. Kodak introduced it in 1935, only a year after 135 film. 828 film was introduced with the Kodak Bantam, a consumer-level camera.

If you are having Marsh Video (or any other company) scan and transfer your photos to digital, please take some time and save yourself some money by culling them before bringing them to us. Unless a photo is totally blank, we will scan it. (I'm working on a project now with over two thousand photos to be scanned and there are so many that I would have eliminated if they had been mine. Tip: Keep the photo of the Grand Canyon with your grandmom in the foreground. Cull out the photo of just the Grand Canyon. There are too many pictures online of the Grand Canyon that are much better than anything your Instamatic got in 1965. Unless, of course there is a UFO in sky.

Memories...the perfect gift. Get those videos, old films, slides, negatives and prints transferred to digital (disc, USB, etc.). All work is done in our Easton studio. Why take the chance of mailing away? Give us a call at 410-822-9010 or send us an email or private message for more information. Orders must be received before 11/18 to be ready before Christmas.

Short 8mm film

My customer wanted this little Abbott and Costello short film digitized because it evoked such great memories. She remembers watching it with her family and laughing their heads off.

1962 Nor'easter Aftermath in Ocean City

Just wrapped up digitizing seven hours of old 8mm and Super 8mm film from the 1960s. The quality was typical--some really nice film, some just OK, and some pretty rough. This footage shows some of the cleanup after the destruction of Ocean City, Maryland from the Nor'easter of 1962.

I love getting 8mm film from local folks. Here is a clip of manninose clams (AKA soft shell clams) being sorted c.1968.

8mm Film Clip of Easton Field Hockey

Videotaping was the prominent way to record in the nineties but this clip was shot on 8mm film. This is from an Easton High School field hockey game. Does anyone recognize anybody?

Talbot County Parade from 1968

Working on a customer's home movies and came across this gem. Recognize anyone? (Customer has opted for no sound, but you can also choose music or the sound of a projector running at no extra charge.)

Sweet Memories

We are in the middle of editing this client's 8mm film from 1964, which will be a Christmas present for her mom. The film hasn't been watched in many years. I have finished digitizing it, but now the editing begins. Unlike the big online companies, we will edit and trim your movies, color correct, and add music if you wish. Because this project is pretty large, it will take me a little while to finish editing, but it will definitely be ready before Christmas. Here is a little clip from the edited production the client has given me permission to share.

Home movies on the Eastern Shore/Marsh Video

Why mail away? Orders received before December 1 are guaranteed delivery before Christmas. Get those old movies to Marsh Video to guarantee you'll have the best present to give to your loved ones. We transfer videotapes, slides, negative, prints and films to digital here in our Easton studio.

1939 New York World's Fair

This customer's films are definitely the oldest films I have digitized yet. Here is a clip showing the New York World's Fair which opened April 30, 1939 and closed on October 27, 1940. Fascinating stuff. (Think about everything that happened during that time period.)

Super 8mm Home Movies Excerpt

Preserving memories like these are what we are all about at Marsh Video. We can digitize your films to USB, hard drive, DVD and/or the "cloud". The perfect gift. Don't wait until the films have deteriorated to the point where they can't be saved. Call Marsh Video at 410-822-9010 or send us a private message for more information.

Federalsburg Parade from Super8mm Film

A short clip from a Super 8mm film transfer I am working on. Federalsburg, Maryland in 1974. Recognize anyone?

Talbot County Local Scenes from the 1960's

Some local scenes from a client's 8mm film I am working on. Saints Peter and Paul School is easily recognizable. Does anyone recognize the other locations on this short clip? (Hint: Royal Farms on Route 50.)

Nor'easter of 1962/Home Movies and Photos

It will be 60 years this weekend since the destructive Ash Wednesday Nor'Easter.This little video includes customer film from Ocean City, Maryland right after the 1962 Ash Wednesday Nor'easter. Also included are some family photos from Rehoboth Beach and Indian River Inlet. The storm stuck around three days, resulting in devastating destruction. For more information, here is a good source. https://www.capegazette.com/node/23907

8mm Film Conversion Clip

Is it me, or does this look like the most boring kiddie ride ever? I'm surprised there aren't a few kids asleep. Does anyone remember ever riding this attraction at Hershey Park? (Short clip from a film conversion I'm working on right now.)

Big Brownie Smile

Many of these young ladies are married with their own children. What a wonderful memory! Transfer those old videotapes ASAP. They are not like fine wine. They don't get better with age, they just deteriorate and get moldy. Give us a call at 410-822-9010 for more information on digitizing your old tapes, films, slides, prints, and negatives.
