Estimating Footage
Movie-to-video transfer is priced according to the
length (or footage) of the film. The same guidelines
apply to estimating footage regardless of the type (8mm,
Super 8mm, 16mm) of film.
If the film you have is on small (3 inches across,
usually blue or white) plastic reels or in small yellow
boxes, you can estimate the footage yourself. These each
usually contain 50 feet of film. Add them up, multiply
by 50 and you have the footage.
Sometimes, the film is pre-spliced onto larger reels,
and estimating footage is a little more complicated.
Reels may hold 50, 200, 300, or 400 feet. 16mm film can
be on even larger reels. Call us for assistance, or
bring your film in to our shop and let us estimate the
footage for you.
If you have any questions or would like more
information, please call us at 828-258-3674 or
