programmes to be presented in high definition in US museums and
schools
In
a new deal with 成人论坛 Worldwide, CineMuse, the leading hi-definition
production and distribution company in the US, will present a range
of 成人论坛 landmark programmes to audiences in the U.S. and Canada.
The programmes will be distributed through the CineMuse Network
of hi-def sites located at museums, universities and other cultural
and educational institutions. The collaboration represents the first
agreement by the 成人论坛 to bring hi-def programmes in science, nature
and history to international audiences in this way.
"The
CineMuse Network has helped to bring outstanding hi-def programmes
to museum and school audiences throughout the U.S. and Canada. This
new collaboration will bring exceptional programmes from 成人论坛 Worldwide
to audiences who also want to experience the world's highest quality
in visual entertainment," said Ted Geier, president and CEO
of CineMuse.
Among
the first 成人论坛 programmes to be available to North American museum
and school audiences are the award-winning Walking with Dinosaurs
(a 成人论坛/Discovery Channel/TV & BS Asahi/ProSieben co-production),Walking
with Beasts (a 成人论坛/Discovery Channel/TV & BS Asahi/ProSieben
co-production) and The Blue Planet (A 成人论坛/Discovery Channel co-production).
Other programming includes Ancient Apocalypse, Great Natural Wonders
of the World, Hotel Heliconia; The Life of Birds, The Planets and
Space.
"These
programmes have already had a major impact with television audiences
around the world. We are constantly looking for ways to reach new
audiences and the CineMuse Network deal is an ideal way to start,
giving people an opportunity to experience these landmark programmes
in a dramatic and sophisticated way," said Alix Tidmarsh, director
of IPM Factual, the factual marketing arm of 成人论坛 Worldwide.
The
programmes were converted to hi-definition from both film and video
masters using a special process developed by 成人论坛 Resources. The
technique creates visual images that offer superior clarity and
colour.
The
成人论坛 Worldwide/CineMuse collaboration begins with a premiere showing
of Hotel Heliconia at the Canadian Museum of Nature. "For adults
and children who want to experience the brilliant colours and fascinating
life forms found in the ocean, or who want to see dinosaurs and
prehistoric mammals up close, these 成人论坛 programmes are nothing short
of spectacular. The 成人论坛 Technology creates hi-def programmes that
will absolutely amaze audiences, and CineMuse is thrilled to be
bringing this experience here now," Geier added.
CineMuse
is headquartered at Robert DeNiro's Tribeca Film Center in New York
City. On May 11, 2002, the programmes The Blue Planet (Seas of Life)
and Walking with Beasts will also be shown at the Tribeca Film Festival
presented by American Express. The 成人论坛 programmes will be available
to cultural institutions that are members of the CineMuse Network
beginning in May.
