Pick the right channel

Four ways to start a conversation.

One inbox handles everything, but routing your message correctly gets you the right answer faster. If you're not sure where you fit, project work is a fine default.

01 / Project work

Got film, video, or photos to digitize?

Use the wizard for an instant estimate, or send an inquiry if you'd rather describe what you have first. Either path is read by the same person and routed the same way.

02 / Institutional & grants

Archives, libraries, museums, and university collections

Free pilot scans, FADGI 3-star and 4-star compliance, IMLS / NEH / NHPRC grant support, vendor pre-identification letters. Net-30 payment terms standard for institutional buyers.

03 / Press & partnerships

Media inquiries and partnership conversations

Coverage, interviews, podcasts, joint articles with adjacent labs or archives. Replies typically within two business days. Press kit and brand assets available on the press page.

04 / Careers

Want to work at FPL?

We aren't actively hiring right now, but we keep an eye out for film handlers, colorists, and customer-facing folks who care about archival work. Send a note about who you are and what you'd want to do.

General inbox

Nothing fits the channels above? Just write.

If you’re unsure where your question fits, send it to the general inbox and we’ll route it. We’d rather you reach out than guess and never hear from you.

When you’re ready

The fastest path is the wizard.

Most project questions are answered faster by building an estimate than by writing in. The wizard walks through media, tier, and extras in two minutes — and the inquiry form is right next to it if you’d rather describe what you have.
