Auro 3D 11.1, the Next Dimension in Theatrical Sound – Barco and THX will present the creation of the next generation of 11.1 3D sound systems for cinemas. Following will be short film explaining the production process by the team at Skywalker Sound to create the 11.1 Auro 3D mix for Lucasfilm Ltds latest film, Red Tails. Red Tails is the world’s first 11.1 soundtrack released to theaters and opens nationwide January 20th.

New Approaches to Film Restoration in an ACES Environment – Image Systems will discuss The ACES environment and how it offers the potential for improvements in how film material is restored. Its wider gamut can allow more original content to be recaptured, processed and distributed as the original filmmakers intended. Combining ACES with OpenEXR and HDR tools provides even more latitude for uncovering the beauty and original intent of archival footage while simultaneously allowing for a “future-proof” Digital Master.

From Camera to Digital Cinema: Keith Roush, founder and senior colorist of Roush Media, will be providing a short live DI color grading session in the DI Theater with a Barco projector and Nucoda grading system to show practical use of OPEN EXR HDR grading for today’s all digital film projects.

Seating will be somewhat limited so RSVP is required for facility and food planning.

Barco, THX and Image Systems are graciously sponsoring the food and beverage for this meeting. Also, Roush Media will be hosting this meeting in their new post facility at 84 E. Santa Anita Ave.
Burbank, CA 91502. There will be free valet parking.
