AIMC/Gold Coast, Australia—Oct 9, 2017
Christie Previews Next Generation CP4325-RGB Pure Laser Cinema Projector at the 72nd Australian International Movie Convention
Christie®
, a
leader in creating and delivering the world’s best visual and audio experiences,
is offering the first-ever preview at the 72nd Australian International Movie Convention (AIMC) of
the next generation Christie CP4325-RGB pure laser cinema projector. The
convention takes place at The Star Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia, October
8-12.
The
direct-coupled RGB pure laser projector has generated much interest among
exhibitors around the world since its first preview at CinemaCon in March. With its innovative design and direct-coupled RGB
illumination system, the Christie CP4325-RGB is the most advanced pure laser projector to come to market. Its
compact ‘all-in-one’ form factor eliminates the need for sub-ambient
cooling, and provides a vast palette of colours, higher contrast ratio, and low
maintenance costs for exhibitors looking at embracing laser projection in their
mainstream auditoriums. Two CP4325-RGB projectors are currently on display at
the HOYTS Cinema Technology Group (CTG)
and Edge
Digital Technology booths, located at #15-16 and #21-22 respectively.
“As a strong supporter of Australian cinema and the
leader of cinema technologies, we’re
excited to show delegates a preview of Christie’s
upcoming CP4325-RGB pure laser cinema projector, which is poised to be a
game-changer in terms of its all-in-one enclosure system and high performance
capabilities,” said Michael Bosworth, General Manager, Christie Australia. “Entirely
designed and built at Christie’s world-class research, development and
manufacturing facility, the CP4325-RGB will deliver an all-new platform offering an affordable,
reliable and performance-driven cinematic experience, developed specifically to
meet the needs of mainstream cinemas. In particular, the
projector’s compact footprint means that it can be easily integrated into any
standard cinema booth.”
Lin
Yu, Vice President, Christie Asia Pacific, added, “Christie has continued to
place strong emphasis on the Australian and New Zealand cinema industry, and
I’m pleased to note that the AIMC is the perfect platform to showcase our
latest technologies and innovation to the fraternity. The sneak preview of our
upcoming CP4325-RGB at this year’s event is a case in point. Intended for mainstream
cinema applications, the CP4325-RGB is a game-changing proposition for exhibitors
looking at upgrading existing installations, as well as for new-build cinemas
and retrofits. I’m
confident that the CP4325-RGB will become the benchmark for laser-based cinema
and exemplifies Christie’s technological leadership in the cinema market.”
Similar
to the fibre-coupled Christie
CP42LH
RGB pure laser projection system used in premium auditoriums, the CP4325-RGB boasts
4K resolution, offers a wide colour gamut exceeding DCI P3, enhanced contrast
ratios and high frame rates. Since the projector does not require any external
cooling, system complexity and costs are drastically reduced. This translates
into an impressive and reliable operational life of more than 30,000 hours,
with an 80 percent brightness delivery over this time. The CP4325-RGB also has
a contrast ratio of up to 6000:1 and provides better uniformity and a wider
colour gamut than other cinema projection systems.
Christie
RGB pure laser installations in Australia
Since its rollout in 2014, Christie’s RGB laser projection
technology has become the preferred choice of leading exhibitors around the
world. In Australia, HOYTS Chadstone in Melbourne is the first cinema complex to be equipped with Christie’s
RGB laser projection system with enhanced wavelength diversity, which offers a
spectacular 3D viewing experience on silver screens. In addition, Sydney-based
post-production house Definition Films has also chosen the Christie CP42LH RGB pure laser projection
system for projection and review screenings at its facility.
Besides
offering a complete range of cutting-edge cinema and lobby solutions, Christie
also runs a network operations centre in Melbourne. The Christie-ICAA Network
Operations Centre (NOC) serves as the central hub for cinema support activities
in Australia and New Zealand, providing 24/7 monitoring of hardware such as projectors,
players, IMBs, theater management systems and networks that connect all these
components. As well, it offers round-the-clock telephone support for all
technical issues, including day-to-day operational questions.
Christie®
MicroTiles® deliver stunning visuals for cinema lobbies
Besides
showcasing the Christie CP4325-RGB, Christie is dazzling delegates with
visually-arresting movie trailer content using the award-winning Christie®
MicroTiles® arranged in a 4-by-7 array in the Southport Room within the
trade exhibition area. Ideal for cinema lobbies, Christie MicroTiles is known
as the ultimate digital canvas that provides amazing image quality, vibrant,
true-to-life colours, brilliant displays and the flexibility to design in any
shape or size.
Employing
the strengths of both DLP® projection and Light Emitting Diode (LED)
technology, Christie MicroTiles offer substantially brighter images and a much
wider colour palette than conventional flat panel LCD and plasma displays. With
no practical limit to the number of tiles in a display, Christie MicroTiles
produce a virtually seamless canvas with an unlimited number of super-fine
pixels. The tiles’ modular, flexible design means they blend into any
environment.
