started.
Before she passed away, Dustin’s grandma gave him a box of Super 8 film. Wanting to preserve those films became the starting point for Dust Heads.
Faced with the challenge of finding a reliable and transparent digitization service, Dustin and Paul decided to take matters into their own hands. Through meticulous research and dedication, they acquired professional and broadcast-grade equipment and developed a preservation-focused approach.
Their journey is driven by a deep love for storytelling and a commitment to honouring the past, forging a strong connection between customers and their shared desire to preserve treasured memories.
