"OCTOBER COUNTRY was a particularly difficult film to transfer to 35mm because we conceived, shot and color corrected the film to stay in the digital realm. This was an artistic choice – film and digital mediums deliver different results, much like painting with watercolors vs painting with oil or acrylic. But when it came to putting the film into theaters after its festival run we had to go to 35mm for exhibition and academy consideration reasons. This posed a unique problem for the Alpha Cine team. Could they get the film print to match the look of the HDCAM master? We weren't looking to improve it with the transfer; just to match it. This was no easy task, but Alpha Cine absolutely dead on nailed it.

I have no doubt this is the best team doing transfers from digital to film and I'd send anyone their way who asked. They went out of their way to understand our specific concerns, to work with us as artists, and to go the extra mile in making the film print look as good as it possibly could. They continually impressed us with their attention to detail and with their diligence in delivering us a 35mm print we could be proud to stand behind. We know we're difficult to work with as we're sticklers for detail, but they really hung in there with us. And they're just fun people to go through the process with. Thanks to Jannat, Caroline, Marc and Bill for knocking it out of the park!"

"Alpha Cine is the greatest! The Seattle-based lab's work on GONZO was spectacular. It was a very difficult film to time in the HD environment. Thankfully Alpha Cine made the film print look even better than the HD master. Go Alpha Cine!"

Alex Gibney, Director, Producer & Writer, GONZO: THE LIFE AND WORK OF DR. HUNTER S. THOMPSON

"The quality and incredible accuracy of the 35 mm transfer that Alpha Cine made of our film, CONSTANTINE'S SWORD, was way beyond my wildest expectations. Also, the sensitive spirit of collaboration and friendly, helpful service of everyone we dealt with during the process was a model for the way filmmakers hope to be treated in this kind of relationship.

But the proof is in the product and the response of an audience. CONSTANTINE'S SWORD is in it's sixth week of a theatrical run in New York City and we are just beginning to roll out in 40 other cities around the country. The high quality of the projected image is partly responsible for that. I highly recommend Alpha Cine to any filmmaker looking for the right place to do a blow-up or transfer to 35mm. "

"Our experience at Alpha Cine proved a welcome reprieve to the extremely challenging production of THE SIGNAL. We had three directors on THE SIGNAL and coming to any consensus required a lengthy debate; except for our transfer at Alpha Cine. Their professionalism, technical knowledge and true understanding of their craft will have us making the travel from Atlanta to Seattle again."

Alexander A. Motlagh, Producer, THE SIGNAL

"As we've screened our film at festivals around the world, audiences consistently ask me how we lensed the film -- We originated on seemingly every format under the sun, from old Super 8mm to the most recent HD Cam, and Alpha Cine created a 35mm transfer that is seamless, with special detail to color, such that many viewers have believed the entire film was shot on 35mm. I highly recommend them and hope to work with them again soon."

I have recommended many filmmakers to Alpha Cine and I look forward to working with them on future projects."

"Alpha Cine did a superb job, on time, with incredible attention to detail. It's a beautiful print! They've worked out a great system for translating color values from digital to film and we were really pleased by even the first answer print. And, they're incredibly nice to work with!"

"Alpha Cine has been tremendous! Their attention to detail & willingness to think through every possibility to ensure that we're always making the best choices for our film (& our trailer) has been inspiring. Too often in post-production one feels like one has to choose between professionalism & passion, but Alpha Cine has delivered both."

Andrew Bujalski, Writer & Director, MUTUAL APPRECIATION

"Of the four films we've blown-up from video to 35mm, this has certainly been the most enjoyable and least stressful. The level of care and professionalism has been high throughout, and everyone has done excellent work. Thank you for making a beautiful print and for caring so much about our film. And thank you for making our impossible deadlines."

Nick Doob & Chris Hegedus Co-Directors, AL FRANKEN: GOD SPOKE

"Working with Alpha Cine was a pleasure in every way. First the quality of the work they deliver is very high. My film was originally shot in 16mm, the digital transfer to 35mm looks so sharp that it does look like it was shot in 35mm. I could also say that I have worked with different post production companies in the US, and the best people to deal with regarding deal negotiation, fast response and kindness were the ones in Alpha Cine."

João Jardim, Director, A BETTER DAY

"Alpha Cine did an amazing job on THE GREAT NEW WONDERFUL. This was my first experience going from Hi-Def to film-out and it could not have gone better. The film out looked amazing and the attention to detailed corrections was fantastic. Overall a top of the line facility and a great working experience. I plan on coming back."

"Alpha Cine Labs was the natural choice to record my film out to 35mm. They have a level of professionalism and care that makes it a pleasure to work with them, and their technical capabilities are excellent. The people from Alpha Cine went out of their way to follow my project from the color-correction stage and gave good technical guidance all the way out to the print. Their desire to work within my budget also demonstrates their on-going support for independent filmmaking. I'm sure I'll be coming back to Alpha Cine for many films to come!"

James Longley, Producer, Director & Cinematographer, IRAQ IN FRAGMENTS

"Alpha Cine has such a great reputation, they were immediately at the top of my list. They were so accommodating with my crazy schedule, and great to deal with on the phone: this was my first 35mm transfer, and they were informative, detail-oriented, and took all my little concerns very seriously. I'm thrilled with the print - it looks beautiful."

Liz Mermin, Director & Co-Producer, THE BEAUTY ACADEMY OF KABUL

"Working with Alpha Cine on the film out for TWELVE AND HOLDING was a pleasure. When it came time to create a 35mm film print, I was hoping to go back to the Super 16 Negative, but that was economically impossible. The end result was better looking than a Super 16 blow up could ever be. Alpha Cine's quality of work is only surpassed by the friendly and professional staff."

Romeo Tirone, Director of Photography, TWELVE AND HOLDING

"I chose Alpha Cine for two reasons: 1) the quality of the test that I got back, and 2) the assurance that as a first time filmmaker, I would be taken care of through the entire process. Alpha Cine went above and beyond my expectations to make sure that we were happy with our final film out."

Margaret Brown, Director, BE HERE TO LOVE ME: A FILM ABOUT TOWNES VAN ZANDT

"Our film has been an eight-year journey so we didn’t want to rush into finding a lab to do the film out. We tested with a few companies but the quality and attention from Alpha Cine was unlike the rest. The entire staff was so caring and accessible from the start. We were under a tight schedule that they were able to meet without a problem. It is a comfort knowing they only take on a couple of projects at a time. We never felt we were one of many. We had every format imaginable and they were able to make a beautiful final print."

Sarie Horowitz, Producer, THREE OF HEARTS: A POSTMODERN FAMILY

"Because BALLETS RUSSES is a historical documentary, our video master held a blend of contemporary DVCam footage, rich black and white glamorous still photography from the 1930s and 1940s, and old motion picture footage with odd frame rates and erratic color values. The team at Alpha Cine took this mishmash of material and created a gorgeous negative. Although BALLETS RUSSES represents our first time working with Alpha Cine, it is actually the fifth documentary that we’ve transferred from video to film, and we can honestly say that none of our past transfers have even come close to the quality achieved by Alpha Cine. Plus, every person we dealt with – from the moment we first made contact, made it instantly clear how much they cared about their work and how important our job was to them. They’re delightful people one and all, and how nice is that when everyone is under pressure to make a tight deadline!"

Dayna Goldfine and Dan Geller, Screenwriters/Directors/Producers

"We couldn’t believe how beautiful THE REAL DIRT ON FARMER JOHN looked after being blown up to film. Our greatest fear was to see soft, grainy, washed out images, but instead we witnessed a rich, filmic quality that surpassed our expectations. On top of this, the warmth and integrity of the staff at Alpha Cine helps to maintain excellence in the world of independent filmmaking."

"Alpha Cine has a great reputation in the independent film community for high-quality work and for caring service. It was really through that reputation that we found them. Initially, we were seeking the best possible tape-to-film transfer for one of our Sundance Film Series films. What we found after our first meeting was that they had the skills, the spirit and the enthusiasm to be our partner from start to finish. We're so happy to be working together. We've put them through the wringer...and they've been amazing!"

"We are NY filmmakers. Why did we choose to travel all the way to Seattle for our blow-up to 35mm? Simple. We just had a feeling and it paid off. We felt completely at home with Alpha Cine from the time we met with them to discuss the specifics and technical intricacies of transferring our film from DV to 35mm. Not only were they extremely attentive to our needs, they made us feel as though we were the only film they were working on. They really cared about our movie and were patient, knowledgeable, professional and always available to us throughout the process. We are happy to have chosen them as our lab and are proud to screen our 35mm print in theaters."

"I would whole heartedly recommend Alpha Cine. I really mean it. Your team is nice, professional, knowledgeable and great about communicating exactly what needs to be done. I'm a real perfectionist and I believe in being very thorough and detailed. I felt as though we were on the exact same level as Alpha Cine. I really loved the results. We have a film that used VHS, Super 8mm, 3/4 Tape, 16mm, DV, Hi-8mm and Quicktimes in our film and you made it all work. I knew it was going to be hell and I was surprised how well it came out. I just can't thank Alpha Cine enough."

Jim Fields, Director, END OF A CENTURY

"Our film, END OF A CENTURY was compiled from every kind of source material imaginable and Alpha Cine did an amazing job translating it to 35mm film. They put in countless hours over a short period of time without complaint. They were a pleasure to work with and we are incredibly grateful to them for all their hard work and dedication."

Rosemary Quigley, Producer, END OF A CENTURY

"Our opening day was approaching fast and of course we were behind schedule, but Alpha Cine took it all in their stride and made it look easy. But I know it took a lot of hard work on their part, late nights and meticulous attention to detail right to the very end. I really felt like I was in good hands all the way through, working with people who really care about their participation in what appears on the big screen. It's a fantastic blend of professionalism with friendliness and plenty of good humor. I unreservedly recommend them very highly."

Nick Day, Co-Producer/Director, SHORT CUT TO NIRVANA: KUMBH MELA

"We were under an extraordinarily tight deadline and Alpha Cine made us feel confident that they would do everything they could to help us make our release date. Throughout the process they were extremely professional, readily available for any questions and last minute changes. We ultimately opened in New York with a print we were extremely proud of."

Rosadel Varela, Producer, CONTROL ROOM

"The Raftman's Razor" is a complicated short which combines S16mm live action with computer generated animation. We were looking for that perfect blend of color balanced with a very specific look throughout the film. Alpha Cine's passion for perfection was made clear very early in the process and any trepidation we felt about the combination of digital files and film was erased by your willingness to run as many tests as needed. We were working with a tight indie short film budget and you worked with us to make every detail perfect. Your dedication to quality filmmaking is praiseworthy and I highly recommend Alpha Cine."

Brad Buckwalter, Producer & Editor, THE RAFTMAN'S RAZOR

"As an independent filmmaker, you're always looking for people that bear with you. Alpha Cine does exactly that. Somehow their unique blending of professionalism with dedicated personal attention turns this place into an asset that's very visible on screen."

Helmut Schleppi, Director, A FOREIGN AFFAIR

"By the time I got to the blow-up process, money was extremely tight, so price was critical. At the same time, I'd spent years crafting a film that I wanted to look the very best it could. Alpha Cine really helped us with the pricing and they delivered on-time and on-budget, with a beautiful end product. They were pleasant, professional and, for a first-time filmmaker, they were wonderful in guiding me through a complicated process. They did wonders with improving the look of some pretty ragged archival footage. I am thankful to the team at Alpha Cine and highly recommend them."

John Dullaghan, Director/Producer, BUKOWSKI: BORN INTO THIS

"Our goal was to make the film look like it was originally shot on 16mm film and Alpha Cine Labs accomplished this quickly, professionally and within our budget"

Peter Jones, Director/Producer, SUNSET JUNCTION

"It was a gamble, really a huge financial risk for me to spend any more money on the film, when I was already worse than broke after shooting and editing. But from the instant I saw Alpha Cine's astonishingly beautiful test projected on 35 mm, I knew I had to find a way. Bruno George and his technicians were not only skilled and professional, they were deeply invested in seeing CHARLOTTE SOMETIMES reach its highest potential. They treated my film as if it were their own, and really that's more than you can ask for. Basically, I gambled the money from my first paid writing gig to see CHARLOTTE SOMETIMES on 35 mm. I feel very fortunate, and I'm proud to say the gamble paid off. Alpha Cine's beautiful 35 mm print not only won awards and nominations, it also got me my first paid directing gig-- directing the very same script!"

Eric Byler, Writer/Director/Producer/Editor, CHARLOTTE SOMETIMES

"DEATH OF A DYNASTY was a complex film with many different sources & formats, as well as numerous animated graphics. We had no idea how our digital master would transfer to 35mm, but once we saw the tests from Alpha Cine we were blown away. Alpha Cine not only gave us extraordinary personal attention and the best price, they delivered in every way! They stepped up to the challenge of creating a beautiful 35mm print we were proud to world premiere at the 2003 Tribeca Film Festival. The quality of the print was first rate and everyone thought the film looked beautiful!

Lisa Fragner, Executive Producer, DEATH OF A DYNASTY

"My documentary film THE WEATHER UNDERGROUND has the feel of a collage - it's a patchwork of archival images from probably every source format ever created, much of which had been shot on film and transferred to video and was now being transferred back to film. I braced myself for the heartbreak of seeing jerky motion in the footage after it was blown up to 35mm or for the colors to change in painful ways, but the final product was fantastic. Alpha Cine developed new methods for dealing with some of my funkiest footage and in the end it all looked stunning. They really seemed committed to doing the best possible work."

Sam Green, Producer/Director/Editor THE WEATHER UNDERGROUND

"We compared Alpha Cine's test and quote against several competitors and quickly learned that their quality and price were clearly the best choice for our tape to 35mm film transfer. Every member of their team is knowledgeable, efficient and very cooperative. We always had the feeling that our film was a priority and they came through on every promise they made. Not only do they do a great job, they are also a lot of fun to work with! "

Scott Duncan, Associate Producer, NEW SUIT

"Alpha Cine proved to be extremely responsive, with excellent communication to our DP throughout the shoot. The video dailies arrived on a timely basis and throughput was flawless. We are extremely pleased with the result."

Bernie Murray, Director, THE SURFER KING

From the 90 second clip test Alpha Cine performed for me that was clearly superior to their competitors, to the personal attention my film received from the talented Bruno, to the private screening in their intimate theatre where the entire staff laughed exactly when they were supposed to, the excellent lunch Don Jensen bought me afterwards--my experience at Alpha Cine could not have been better. The bottom line is they delivered on their promise--my film looks great and I have a 35m print I'm proud to screen at Sundance."

Patrick Coyle, Director, DETECTIVE FICTION World Premiere Sundance 2003

"The folks at Alpha Cine are champions, artists, and friends. They did wonderful work, and they were wonderful people, and treated our little movie like it was "Ben Hur"! I will return to them again and again."

Sherman Alexie, Writer/Director, THE BUSINESS OF FANCY DANCING

"I've done two features with Alpha Cine. The reasons I keep coming back are simple: quality and integrity. The quality of the 35mm transfer of my High-Def film, MASTER OF THE GAME, surpassed all expectations. I was awed by the outstanding beauty and texture of the print. It totally blew me away! When screening in LA, our projectionist - a veteran of some twenty years - refused to believe that the print he was projecting originated on HD. He claimed it simply 'looked too good'.

"In addition, everyone I've dealt with at Alpha Cine has achieved one simple, but rare, thing. They have done what they said they would do. That may seem a small compliment on the surface. But in a business where everyone is notorious for exaggeration, knowing that you can trust someone at their word is an amazing feat."

Jeff Stolhand, Director, MASTER OF THE GAME

"I wanted PARIS to be truly stylish and different. A modern noir that needs a fresh look, not the usual tired B movie look . Despite all the research and tests that I did, shooting on DV was a big gamble; you are entering the unknown. But when I saw the Alpha Cine test transferring the HD master to 35mm...those gorgeous images on the big screen ......I knew that all the hard work and the gamble had paid off. Alpha Cine knew how to bring the film to another level.

PARIS is one of the most beautiful 35mm transfers of a film shot on DV I have ever seen and I made a point at looking at dozens of them! Alpha Cine has done a terrific job--they care about the image; they care about the story and they are wonderful people to work with. I have worked with many labs over the years in the US and overseas and no other lab has ever exhibited this level of concern or provided this level of service. I love them!"

Ramin Niami, Director/Producer, PARIS

"After seeing Alpha Cine's work and talking with the experienced professionals on their staff, we were confident that they would produce a beautiful print. And they did not disappoint. We were amazed with the final result we saw on the screen at the Berlinale. However, what was most impressive about working with Alpha Cine was their "can do" attitude and soothing calm under extreme pressure. Thanks to Alpha Cine, we made an impossible deadline and never broke a sweat in the process. They were truly amazing people to work with."

Benjamin Morgan, Director, QUALITY OF LIFE

I watched a lot of video-to-film transfers before I decided to go with Alpha Cine. The fact that they were willing to work within my indie budget was just a bonus. The 24P HD transfer they did for BACK UP, PLEASE is the best I've seen anywhere. No one would guess it didn't originate on 35mm."

Douglass Horn, Director, short film BACK UP, PLEASE!

"Everyone at Alpha Cine is great! I didn't expect a commercial lab to take such good care of me and our first 35mm show - boy, was I surprised. BREAKIN IN is only 13 minutes, but I was treated like a feature director - the staff bent over backwards to ship on time to our first festival, everyone answered my "Filmmaking 101" questions patiently, and the wonderful film out allowed the show to be SEEN in a theatre - as it should be. Thanks!"

James Russell, Director, BREAKING IN

"As filmmakers try to evaluate the positives and negatives of both digital and film, so must the post houses. Alpha Cine has invested themselves in state of the art equipment that allows the best of both worlds. Alpha Cine essentially said, ‘here are our tools, let us get your movie as close as possible to the way you envisioned it.’ And often times they were showing us things that we hadn't envisioned possible because previous technology hadn't allowed for it. We are very grateful for their personal service. When we walked through their doors for an appointment, we knew that the focus would be on our film."

Kelly Requa, Director, THE FLATS

"What can I say! I first liked Alpha Cine for the price. They gave me the best bid of any other labs. But after I got to know them, they treated me like a king. They made sure the job was done right and held my hand through the post-production process. I would recommend them to anyone shooting on film or digital. I was additionally impressed when I saw their digital demo reel. It was the final nail for me to shoot my next film digitally. They know what they are doing."

Kels Goodman, Director, HAND CART

"When the Berlin Film Festival invited my movie POWER TRIP to screen, but only on 35mm, we had less than four weeks to finish our video master and transfer to film. Luckily we found Alpha Cine Labs who promised they could meet our crazy deadline. They were always accessible, reassuring and friendly under great pressure, and most important they got the job done on time and within our budget. We carried the print on the plane to Berlin and it looked great!"

Paul Devlin, Producer/Director/Editor, POWER TRIP

MARGARETTE'S FEAST is a modern silent film, it was shot in B&W and at 18fps. The blow up from S-16mm to 35mm was a critical step to make the film look like an old film. Living in the New York area, the option of doing the job in Seattle was somehow scary, but the professionalism of the lab crew made me comfortable in doing this critical job there. Even without going even once to Seattle I felt confident it would look great. When I saw the first 35mm print I couldn't believe how it looked exactly how we planned, and we got it on time for our first festival."

Renato Falcão, Director/DP, MARGARETTE'S FEAST (A FESTA DE MARGARETTE)
