Cantrell Video Color Lab
We scan your original films and flat art to your specifications or we optimize your scans for output to our printers.
Our printers being either digital laser or fine art ink jet.
The start of the process is where the original image gets professionally scanned in.The quality of the scan is extremely important, this is where the final quality for the retouching work is taken from.
A professional scan will capture the right amount of color, tone and image resolution for the retouching process.
All we ask is that you provide the original picture or image so we can scan it professionally if at all possible.
Most consumer scanners on the market in our opinion do not do a good enough job. More importantly the end user normally does not have sufficient experience in making sure that the settings are correct in order to get the best possible scan.
This can significantly prolong the time taken recreating information when not scanned professionally .
This is usually because of exposure to sunlight or other elements in the air and because of improper washing away of chemicals during processing.Harsh light and UV are major causes or faded photos. Color photos fade much faster than black & white photos due to less silver in the paper and use of color dyes.
Most old photographs fade or color shift with age no matter how carefully looked after. Your old family color picture may now have an orange color cast.
With age this will only get worse and in fact may just fade away over time.
We also restore photos with cracks, holes, pieces missing, large scratches on faces, or important areas.The example photo shown has extreme damage having rips, tears, bubbles and many stains all over the paint.
Fixing the damage was a challenge though very enjoyable restoring it. The customer could not believe how well the photo looked after restoration and were delighted with the result.
