Executive Summary

by

  • The Hobbit in HFR 3D – early reports from the field. No movie has undergone a more intense preparation of cinemas for its release, and yet surprises have occurred.
  • Frame Rates and 3D – How it Works. A primer that will probably benefit even those who think they’ve got it down.

  • The Atmos Playback System. A primer on perhaps the most advanced and complex audio system to take root in cinema.
  • Audio Routing in Digital Cinema. Sad but true, we’re still talking about audio routing.
  • The ITU and the Internet. In a move that makes SOPA look like kid’s play, the little known Working Group on International Internet-related Public Policy Issues will be setting the agenda for the ITU World Conference on International Telecommunications (WCIT) in December.
  • Dolby Laboratories announced new titles for Atmos. Competitor Auro3D scored titles with Dreamworks Animation.
  • Christie Digital is acquiring systems integrator VR Solutions in India and Australia.
