About Us

Preserving Memories, One Frame at a Time

At Film and Tape Transfers, we specialize in converting your treasured memories from outdated formats—like 8mm, Super 8,  VHS, MiniDV, Photos and slides,  and more—into high-quality digital files. With over 30 years of experience in media preservation, our mission is simple: to help families and professionals relive the moments that matter most.

Our founder, Dennis Backer, brings a deep passion for film and storytelling to every project. A lifelong enthusiast of audiovisual technology, Dennis began his journey in the early 1980s working in broadcast and video production. Over the years, he noticed a growing need to preserve aging media before it deteriorated beyond repair. What began as a side project to help friends and family soon evolved into a full-service media transfer business trusted by clients across the country.

Dennis personally oversees every step of the process—from cleaning and repairing fragile film to color correction —ensuring each transfer meets his exacting standards. His attention to detail and commitment to quality have earned Film and Tape Transfers a reputation for excellence, accuracy, and care.

Whether you’re looking to preserve family history, digitize old home movies, or restore vintage film reels for archival purposes, you can trust us to handle your memories with the respect they deserve.

Let us help you bring your past into the present—safely, professionally, and with heart.
