Armenia's HyeFilm to restore archives with da Vinci technology
Broadcast Engineering Online Exclusive
July 7, 2006
The newly privatized Armenian film studio HyeFilm is using da
Vinci's Resolve digital mastering suite and Revival color image
restoration systems for digitizing and restoring the country's vast
film archives. Using original negatives stored for decades in the
Soviet state film library in Moscow, HyeFilm will repair, enhance
and preserve Armenian film archives dating back to 1924.
The Resolve and Revival systems at HyeFilm are connected to a
common storage area network (SAN), enabling users to access the same
materials without having multiple copies between systems. HyeFilm
will use Revival to restore films using its tools for removing
dirt, dust, scratches and flicker, while also providing image
stabilization. Once the restoration processes are complete, the film
files are instantly accessible by Resolve for final color grading and
image enhancement. The Resolve system will also provide the required
deliverables such as SD and HD video for television broadcast, as well
as scanner files for film output for cinema release or archive storage.
Revival is a complete motion picture image restoration system
designed to handle everything from heavy-duty restoration to digital
remastering. The system offers deFlicker, as well as the removal
of dust, stain, blotch, dirt, grain and noise removal. An automatic
mode analyzes and processes images, while Revival's interactive mode
enables manual restoration of individual sequences, allowing operators
to achieve the highest quality result at optimized speed.
