About Us

T R A N S F E R S

Finding that there is a lack of support for affordable high resolution transfers, I began researching my own ways to do it. I shot a few short films and soon thereafter other filmmakers began approaching me wondering how I got my super 8 to look so good... 5 years have passed and with the support of other cinematographers, I created our little studio called Frame Discreet. Our custom super 8 and 16mm transfers have us trusted by archivists and filmmakers all across North America.

Our team of cinematographers (listed below) act as a collective, inspiring each other on and off set. We have a full range of experience working on features (Max Payne, The Hulk) to music videos (Hayden, Emily Haines), to Documentaries (CBC, YTV, MTV, Bravo!). Having our own gear and being able to supervise transfers in house allows us the freedom to create desireable 'film looks' at a much more affordable rate. In the end, we're trying to make it easier to collaborate, work with film and keep doin' what we love.

On Location- Dirtsurfer Roadtrip





I've been touring around with 3 of the other Dirtsurfer Pro Team riders shooting a promo video. Just hit up Smuggler's Notch in Vermont, and now I'm in Sault Ste. Marie at Buttermilk Ski Resort. It's amazing at both resorts. They gave us free reign to ride whatever we want to and to do whatever we want to. Got to play in the on hill springs and water trampolines in our down time :) At Buttermilk, they started up the chair lift for just us 4 Riders to use all day long. No one else was on the hill. It was like a dream come true. Got one more day left in us, then back to Toronto.
