Doremi to Equip All Rooms at the 65th Cannes Film Festival for 2K and 4K Screenings
Doremi technical partner of the 65th Cannes Film Festival, May 16 to 27
In 2003, when Doremi first installed its servers at
Cannes for the screening of James Cameron's "Ghosts of the Abyss", it
initiated a relationship of trust between Cannes and digital technology. Since
then, with the development of innovative technologies for digital cinema,
Doremi’s involvement at the Festival has expanded. The company has now reached
a prominent position in the Festival’s organization and plays a major role in
the presentation of all films, both in the Official Selection and other
presentations.
In previous
years, industry partners working with Festival used Doremi servers. Now Doremi
has signed a direct partnership with the Festival organization that runs though
to 2014. For Cannes 2012, a total of forty (40) DCP-2000 digital cinema servers and IMB
(Integrated Media Block) / ShowVault solutions will be used to provide 2K and
4K playback.
Attendees can
also find a wide range of Doremi Cinema solutions at the Film Market at
partnering company’s booth such as Decipro. These will include the latest
playback systems as well as Fidelio and CaptiView which are designed to enhance
the movie experience for the visually and hearing impaired.
