Blackmagic Design today announced that the Egyptian Media Production City (EMPC) is relying on the Cintel Scanner G3 HDR+ for real time scanning and DaVinci Resolve Studio to restore and digitize Egypt’s rich film archive.
The Cairo based EMPC media complex is contracted by the Ministry of Culture which holds the original prints for hundreds of motion pictures and photographic treasures made between 1940 and the late 1990s. In 2018, The Cinematic Restoration Center (CRC) was established to document and digitize the entire collection.
“Cinema is a huge part of Egyptian culture; however, time is running out to preserve that legacy,” begins CRC General Manager, Nada Hossam El Din Farahat. “For decades, celluloid was the principal recording medium, and much of that original negative is now in poor condition and decaying.”
