A Brief History
• April Fools' Day, 1970—three men sit around a kitchen table and agree to form a film production company.
• Thirty-five days later papers are signed, fees paid and a new corporation is born.
• Thirty-eight years later Vipdubs Duplication and Media Services has evolved into a well-known and highly regarded full-service company with fast turnaround, meticulous attention to detail and very competitive prices (Never a rush charge!).
