When you choose Restoration Video to digitize your pre-digital recordings, you can rest easy. You'll know and trust the actual person restoring your precious memories instead of giving your money to a faceless corporation.
Let me handle all of your video and audio conversion needs!
Hi, I'm Joshua Dudley! My journey into media preservation began right after I got married. My wife's family had a massive collection of old home videos, and as I helped dig through and digitize them, I realized how much I loved helping people rediscover their most cherished family memories.Since then, I’ve brought that exact same care and technical expertise to high-level archiving projects. I digitized the complete video archive of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City, founded by New York Times bestselling author and pastor Timothy Keller—preserving more than three decades of recordings spanning numerous obsolete and hard-to-find tape formats.Whether it's historical church archives or your own family's personal memories, I handle every single tape with the deep respect it deserves.
