Revolutionary EclairColor HDR Cinema Technology To Take Center Stage at 72nd Annual Congrès de la Fédération Nationale des Cinémas Français
Ymagis Group, the European specialist in digital
technologies for the cinema industry (Ymagis Group – FR0011471291, YMAGIS, PEA-PME),
announced today that it will be presenting its revolutionary EclairColor™ HDR
cinema technology at the upcoming Fédération Nationale des Cinémas Français
(FNCF) convention in Deauville (France).
Two special presentations will take place at the Centre International de
Deauville’s Michel d’Ornano Auditorium at 5:30 pm on Tuesday 26 September and
9:15 am Wednesday 27 September. Technical presentations of the technology will
be held in parallel in the Lexington Room (CID – Level -2) at 12:45 pm &
3:30 pm Tuesday (26 Sept.) and 11 am & 5:15 pm Wednesday (27 Sept.). The
EclairColor presentations will be open to all FNCF convention delegates upon
presentation of their badge.
"Having debuted
EclairColor at last year’s FNCF convention to great acclaim, it is with tremendous
pride that we’ll be presenting our HDR (high dynamic range) cinema technology
under optimal conditions this year in the CID’s spectacular 1,497-seat
auditorium with its 20-m wide screen,” said Ymagis Group CEO & co-founder
Jean Mizrahi. “Thanks to our partners, Barco and Sony Digital Cinema 4K, both
exhibitors and distributors will have the opportunity to view content with unprecedented
image quality, finer details and greater color fidelity.”
"Since its
launch just last year, we have seen a record rollout of our EclairColor solution
with 46 equipped cinemas in France, including the latest installations at the
Mégarama Bordeaux Bastide, Mégarama Villeneuve-la-Garenne and the Ciné-Jaude in
Clermont-Ferrand," added Maxime Rigaud, Managing Director of CinemaNext
France & Africa. "This technology provides exhibitors across France the
opportunity to offer their audiences an incomparable cinema experience with an
added dimension. The added technical and artistic benefits are clearly visible
to all, and we have made the technology compatible with a range of existing
projection systems.”
Adaptable to all types of cinemas, from arthouse to
the largest multiplexes, EclairColor enhances the big screen experience with
more brightness, crisper images, greater depth of field, and more density. The EclairColor
solution features heightened contrast and greater color fidelity to better
reflect the original artistic intent of the film’s creative teams, while
exhibitors can screen both EclairColor and standard (DCI) content.
