Film Restoration Workflow Employs Cintel Scanner

Multicom Entertainment Group, an independent distribution company, has developed a comprehensive film restoration workflow using the Cintel Scanner from Blackmagic Design. The company's extensive library of over 1,500 titles includes more than 200 films on film, making in-house post-production processing a cost-effective and efficient solution.

According to Executive Director Andrew Baritz, building an in-house post-production workflow allows for greater control and flexibility in managing the restoration process. The Cintel Scanner has been instrumental in this effort, enabling the capture of high-quality scans from various film formats, including 35mm and 16mm.
