Our Core Team
The Owners: Jennifer Miko and Buck Bito
Movette Film Transfer's president, Jennifer Miko has been working with film since the 1980s. Originally a portrait and documentary photographer and darkroom technician, she expanded her interests to include small gauge motion picture film when she joined the team at Video Transfer Center in 1999. In 2003, the original owner sold the business to Jennifer and her husband, Buck Bito, and they have been transforming the business to focus on film transfer under their ownership. The transformation was completed at the end of 2010 from which time the company has been providing film scanning services exclusively.
