Benefits of Preservation & Digitization Projects
By pooling resources to preserve major studio-owned titles, we can produce highquality preservation materials, adding to a film's long-term presence in Social & Cultural Importance. Thereby achieving the role of archiving, safeguarding NATIONS Film and Cultural Heritage.
ONCE the FILM is Healthy, We do Ultra Cleaning for dust or dirt removal.
After Ultrasonic Cleaning we inspect for Image Quality for further study.
After Ultrasonic Cleaning and Image Inspection we do Scanning at 2K or 4K Resolution.
Most Common 16MM and 35MM Film Scanning Resolution is Full HD,2K or 4K
Film Restoration - Full HD,2K,4K or any other resoltion
1 : Dirt or Dust
2 : Scratches, tears / burned frames
3 : Color fade, color change
4 : Missing scenes
4 : Shrinkage
Film Restoration Video
Modern, digital film restoration takes the following steps
1 - Expertly clean the film of dirt and dust Digitally without affecting the Imagery.
2 - Film tears & tape or splicing cement removed by PAINT.
3 - Restore the film frame by frame by comparing each frame to adjacent frames.
4 - Other Semi-Auto viz. computer algorithms with human checking of the result. A- Fix frame alignment ('jitter' and 'weave'), or the misalignment of adjacent film frames due to movement of film within the sprockets. This corrects the issue where the holes on each side of a frame are distorted over time. This causes frames to slightly be off center. B - Fix color and lighting changes. This corrects flickering and slight color changes from one frame to another due to aging of the film. C - Restore areas missing or blocked by BIG dirt by using parts of images in other frames.
