Technicolor is expanding its digital-cinema satellite distribution
service in Europe, entering a partnership with leading
electronic-delivery provider SmartJog. The SmartJog satellite
network has access to more than 1,000 sites in nine European
markets.
“SmartJog…has a well-established European digital-cinema network,
which Technicolor will offer to its clients to distribute features
and trailers on a pan-European basis,” commented Claude Gagnon,
president of Technicolor Creative Services division. “Technicolor
provides its clients the benefit of working with a single vendor to
manage worldwide releases without the need to manage multiple
providers across the globe.”
“We are pleased to be partnering with Technicolor in Europe, who
will offer its studio customers a fully managed end-to-end
electronic-delivery solution directly to cinemas via our network,”
said Jean-Sébastien Petit, CEO of SmartJog. “This partnership will
further help electronic delivery become an industry standard in
distribution of DCPs to cinemas. Our company is focused on
accelerating our pan-European network rollout, with the objective
of having 100% of first-run cinemas in target countries connected
by 2016, and furthermore, we are investing in our network
infrastructure. We have recently doubled our satellite capacity in
Europe to support our growth.”
