[Frameworks] Looking for a lab - 16mm scan in 2k

[edwin m]

hi federico, 

in london, deluxe do 2k and it's possible to get reasonable prices out of them, they can go right up to the silly end too though. their digital and lab stuff has recently been separated, so you'll need to go to 'deluxe 142' for the scan. i recently had about 600' scanned, it cost the equivalent of about $2250, and it was from 2400' of material with an edl. so although they have minimums, you should get it done for a lot less! i've always felt like they were quite pricey (until reading your email), but the quality is very high

We (actually, the archives) used
Modern Videofilm in Glendale, California. Contact Vincent Pirozzi at VPirozzi at mvfinc.com for PORTRAIT OF JASON

and
NT Audio Video in Hollywood. Contact: Shawn Jones at shawn at ntpicso.com (FILM BY SAMUEL BECKETT  and ORNETTE: MADE IN AMERICA -- though they were 35mm, I'm sure they can do 16mm)

Both are excellent choices.

Hi everybody,



I am looking for a lab able to scan 16mm films in 2K.



The closest from my home is based in Switzerland. This lab is

excellent, but swiss prices are really to high for my project. If you

have any suggestions for reliable and more affordable labs, I will be

very thankful.



For the money this lab is asking (more or less 7.500$ for 100 meters

of film scaned in 2K and a basic color grading), I heard it is worth

buying a plane ticket and do it in the US. So don't hesitate to

mention labs located in Los Angeles or New York.



Thank you very much, best wishes,



Fed
