Kinoplex Selects Doremi for 160 Screens in Brazil
Following an extensive
review over the past year, Kinoplex announced that it has selected Doremi to
digitize 160 of its screens across Brazil. Quanta DTG | AAM is managing the
transition. Kinoplex has been a pioneer of cinema exhibition in Brazil since 1917,
operating more than 232 movie theaters across 35 locations to date. With approximately 50,000 seats, it is by far
the largest independent exhibitor in Brazil.
Luiz Severiano Ribeiro Neto, President of Kinoplex,
related that the company did not take the decision lightly, saying, “Given our
rich history as a company, we feel a constant responsibility to deliver the
best experience possible for our guests. At the same time, we must also utilize
the most efficient, reliable tools available. Our careful review confirmed
Doremi as the best solution.” The system
will utilize the Doremi IMB/ShowVault DCP platform, which features dual 3G SDI
inputs, HDMI® 3D input with HDCP, 4K projector image playback support, and
scaling capabilities of 2K or 4K resolutions.
“We have been putting forth significant efforts in Brazil
this past year and we are extremely pleased with Kinoplex’s decision to deploy
Doremi’s IMB across their circuits,” said Michael Archer, Vice President of
Digital Cinema, Doremi Labs. He added, “As always, we are dedicated to follow
through with our utmost level of service and post-sales support.”
