Field notes
The service combines physical media conversion with archival description: each scene is reviewed, audio is transcribed, and people and events are tagged for later browsing. The listed intake covers VHS, VHS-C, Hi8, and MiniDV, with an uncertainty option for customers who do not know their format. Orders of $250 or more are described as including a complimentary hard drive, while six months of hosting and streaming is included with digitization.
