Moving Image Technologies announces that
Pacific Theatres has purchased the first Cine-Sation chairs for their Pacific
Winnetka 21 complex in Chatsworth, CA east of Los Angeles.
“Pacific Theatres
is an institution in the cinema exhibition industry. We could not be more proud at having them as
our inaugural customer!" says Joe Delgado, Executive Vice President of
sales and Marketing.
Peter Nicholas (UBC), consulting for Acouve Inc., designers of the effects
format on which the Cine-Sation product is based, first approached Joe
Miraglia, Director of Design, Construction & Facilities for Pacific
Theatres, about assisting Cine-Sation in a beta test in one of their theatre
auditoriums and graciously accepted the offer of full use of one at the
Winnetka Theatres for 6 months.
“Given
Pacific’s reputation, proximity to the Hollywood studio base and their long
standing relationship with distribution, it made my job of liaising with the
studios for content for the tests that much easier. Having the support of
Joe Miraglia and his cinema managers has also been of great value to MIT in
adapting and productizing
this
technology for the North and South American cinema markets” states Nicholas.
“We tested the system for
6 months with 12 different titles and
realized the benefit of Cine-Sation to our guests and business”. said Joe
Miraglia.
Warner Brothers Studios, who supported the Cine-Sation testing by providing
three of the full features, kindly agreed for their latest release (
The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies)
to be screened in Cine-Sation at the Winnetka Pacific Theatre .
By special agreement by WB and
Pacific Theatres,
The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies is also being screened (with a limited number of
latest chair designs) at the prestigious Pacific Grove Theatre.
Cine-Sation is a unique acoustic vibrating cinema seating system
that is encoded with acoustically driven effects mastered individually to each

Burbank California and approved by the QC authorities of the relevant studio
prior to the file delivery to exhibition. For more information contact
