Slide production system

How is it done?

One of the questions sometimes asked is how do we convert digital data to film?

No, we don’t photograph a print-out or photograph a computer screen!

We use special film recorders and the process is very similar to that used by the cinema industry where an entirely digital movie, like Shrek for instance, is transferred to 35mm movie film for projection in the theatre.

We have been producing slides (diapositives or simply dias to our continental friends) for many years and currently run several film recorders. These boxes of tricks write sequentially in red, green and blue onto 35mm transparency film and are capable of recording the most vibrant and yet most subtle colours in very high resolution. We currently use Fujifilm film processed in own laboratory, giving us both the speed and quality we and our customers insist on.
