U-Edit Video

My parents have two reels of 8 mm film of their wedding from 1969 and I told them I could get it transferred to a DVD. I’ve always seen U-​Edit on the corner of the shopping strip but never ventured in. I finally got me something I could take to them and in I went!
I go in and give them my two reels. «I’d like this wedding video transferred to DVD, please.»
«Sure, no problem. We have a 250 foot minimum. It’s $.15/​foot. Looks like you’ll have under the 250 minimum…»
«Okay. How long will it take?»
«Oh, about 4 – 6 weeks»
«Alright. Call me when it comes in.»
It came in right as they had estimated. Right around 4 weeks and all-​in-​all, I’m pretty happy with it. They try to document any problems with the film and noted that it was overexposed or had artifacts or was cloudy. It’s a 40 year old reel of film. I don’t expect it to be perfect.
Now we have the reels preserved on a DVD and this Sunday when my family gets together for dinner, we’ll watch it for the first time all together. I’m excited.
Thanks U-​Edit. I don’t know what part I played in the editing, but I couldn’t care less.
