| As many audiences know, the
quality of one digital projection experience to another can vary
greatly. This is due to the many types of digital projectors
and formats for playback, but it also has a lot to do with whether
the file or tape has been mastered specifically for digital projection. Central has researched and developed methods for a new concept in digital projection known as Digital Cinema Mastering. This incorporates our years of experience with image optimization and format and frame-rate conversions into the production of High Definition Digital Cinema Files, capable of stunning picture quality. Combining DFC's image quality expertise with newly improved players like Windows Media 9 HD (WMVHD), Quicktime, MPEG-4, and QuVis, we create fantastic quality Digital Cinema Masters from HD, standard definition video or Film. DFC further enhances your production by encoding a 5.1 Digital Surround soundtrack into a file that can fit onto a DVD, yet packs the resolution and sound quality of a full theatrical 35mm print or HD projection experience. The Windows Media 9 HD® (WMVHD) D-Cinema format has been an accepted delivery and projection format for the Sundance and Vancouver Film Festivals, with many other festivals and theaters getting on board with this high quality. Digital Cinema Mastering also incorporates many of the steps required to go back to film should you eventually require a film print for wider scale distribution. Let one of our Digital Film Specialists show you the possibilities these exciting and affordable digital distribution methods have to offer. |
