His late father John Kilpatrick was on the design team with EMI engineers,Marconi engineers and BBC helping to develop the first commercial broadcast colour camera in the UK The EMI 2001 and Douglas has the very EMI manuals from 1968 which is holds with legacy pride.

As a child, Douglas was always fascinated by TV, and by his teens, he was spending summer holidays in studios, mesmerized by the colossal cameras and broadcast machines. This early exposure laid the foundation for his future in video. In his early 20s, he bought his own video camera and editing equipment, producing and editing videos for himself and others.

This passion led him to graduate in Multimedia Design, and he remains dedicated to learning new skills and embracing new media technology. Douglas established Vintage Media Transfers to address a critical need: the lack of quality video archiving and restoration. Tired of seeing "low-end consumer conversions" run by amateurs, he committed to a higher standard. He offers a premium, bespoke professional service that goes far beyond basic ingest.. The goal is to take your raw footage and transform it into polished, expertly edited, and colour-graded digital master files that are better than the original. This comprehensive service also includes broadcast formats in long form ingest and consumer; various audio and cine film formats, even the rarest ones, to digital.
