USA Studios downconvert 'Concert for George' with Snell & Wilcox
Long-time Snell & Wilcox customer USA Studios, an industry leader in international tape duplication with two high-volume facilities in New York City, have wrapped work on the downconversion of 'Concert For George', a feature film documenting last year's George Harrison tribute concert at the Royal Albert Hall in London.
USA Studios used a Snell & Wilcox Ukon universal format conversion platform to downconvert the HD masters of the concert to Digital Beta. The downconversion was completed in preparation for the film's DVD release in November, which follows a limited theatrical release.
USA Studios, among the world's first to purchase a Ukon following its introduction last year, processed the HD masters through the unit to downconvert the material for standard NTSC television. Ukon's real-time conversions eliminated artefacts associated with HD conversions and provided pristine video for the downconverted masters.
