Why Convert Video to DVD?

Videotapes begin deteriorating after only a few years from frequent playback and/or improper storage which can accelerate this process. You may already see a noticeable difference in your tapes quality: intermittent snow, creases in the picture, color distortion, or even missing selection of video. Soon your videotapes may not be playable at all.

Now is the time to save your favorites and have them converted!

Recreate and Share Your Memories!

Nostalgia is defined as longing for something that is lost.  The one thing that slips away and is hard to replace are memories.  We’ve all heard about those who have lost everything either in a tornado, hurricane, flood or fire and the neighbors and family who come and bring photos to replace the ones lost in tragedy.

I’m sure you have had the opportunity to go to a family or church reunion and the photos come out from the deepest and darkest recesses of the storage closet.  Laughter can be heard ringing through the building as heads are bent over the albums of long forgotten, long lost memories.

I’m also sure you or a family member has at one time or another wished or even spoken aloud the wish that someone would get those photos in order, or make you a copy of one or the other photograph that you see every time the family gathers.

I want to talk about ways that you can surprise a family member or a parent, or other significant person in your life.

New technology bombards us on a daily basis.  Our VHS tapes, 8mm videos, Hi8 tapes are pretty much a thing of the past.  It is hard to even find a VHS tape player in the stores anymore.  Pretty soon tape cassettes will go the way of 8 tracks from the 1970’s and 1980’s.  We will end up searching second hand stores to find an old technology to play our old media.

Media producers, such as Past Present Future Digital, enjoy taking the way of the past and bringing those memories into the twenty-first century.  By transferring old media methods into new technology they give you a method to save your memories.  That old 8mm of your father playing college football, or your grandmother and mother walking hand in hand on the beach can be saved for your children and grandchildren to know their family history.

Learn more about how PPF Digital can bring back the nostalgia by showing you the past with today’s technology.

How PPF Digital Helps You Help Others

Take a look inside how Past Present Future Digital can make the difference in your world.

It’s Friday night, your son, a Junior at New Hanover High School, is playing in the playoffs to see which team is going to State playoff games.  You know that just because he plays a great game tonight, his statistics for the past three years and his MVP status will not be what gets him that four year scholarship to the University of Chapel Hill without some visual help.  You also know that you don’t own a video camera.  Yet, you because you know the competition is stiff even at public universities, you want to help your son.

What would you do?  Here’s an idea.

You start by looking for a videographer with varied experience.  Someone you can trust, who has a team of technicians standing behind him (not just someone with a camera on a tripod).  You look for someone who has as much invested in his business as you do in your son’s future.

This is where Past Present Future Digital comes in.

Let’s go back to the scenario above for a moment.  Imagine, if you will, you hire PPF Digital to come to the game, videotape the game.  Every father of every player on that team, including the coaches, is going to want a copy of that video.  You have hired a professional company to do a professional job of helping you help your son achieve his dream.  You’ll be the envy of the team because you had the forethought to help your son.

Alright, so the next step is that you have PPF Digital make extra copies of the video.  You remember that not just one college is looking for great football players.  So, for every scholarship, every college application you send a video of your son and his team winning the game.

Wouldn’t you invest in your child’s future?

Think about the possibilities!
