EMEA first showing: Ang Lee’s new film at 120 frames per second, 3D, 4K, with 6P
laser brightness
Monday’s keynote by multi-award-winning director Ang Lee (Life of Pi, Brokeback
Mountain) will be the first time in EMEA that clips of Ang Lee’s new film from TriStar
Pictures, Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk (2016) can be seen in 120 frames per
second, 3D, 4K, in 6P laser brightness. Christie has the only projection solution in
the world that can show such a high frame rate and resolution in 3D, thanks to its
Christie TruLife™ platform – with a proprietary, 1.2 Gigapixel per second, floating
point architecture.
Julian Pinn, Executive Producer, IBC Big Screen Experience said: “There is no finer
keynote presenter for this year’s IBC Big Screen Experience than Ang Lee and we
are very honoured to be hosting him. For over two decades, Ang Lee has shown
true mastery in utilising cutting-edge science and cinematographic techniques
towards his creation of some of the very finest works of cinematic story-telling art.’
The revolutionary new cinematographic technique utilised unlocks a new level of
story-telling power and emotional connection with the on-screen characters.
Additionally, it offers greater control over preserving artistic integrity over the
increasing range of delivery formats both within cinema and to the wider electronic
entertainment market.
