Barco take digital cinema technology Cannes
Barco, the projection systems design and development specialist, and official partner of the 2003 Cannes Film Festival, will be the prime mover behind digital screenings at the festival for the second consecutive year.
Barco's broader mission is to support the "seventh art" through its transition to digital cinema by enabling film-makers to screen restored and completed films, or films in post-production, in digital format, using Barco systems and equipment installed in the festival's Official Selection theatres.
As more and more movies are shot in digital format, digital screening increasingly becomes the norm, bringing with it a whole array of technological and strategic imperatives.
Sjoerd De Clerck, Managing Director of Barco Digital Cinema, said: "Last year, the public was blown away by digital screenings of 'Spirit' and 'Star Wars Episode II'. This year, producers and directors are much more aware of, and favourably disposed toward, the capabilities of digital cinema".
