Screen Helps Met Opera Win IBC International Honour For Excellence

Screen Subtitling Systems has announced its association with this year's IBC International Honour for Excellence Award winner, the Metropolitan Opera.
The award was presented at the IBC 2009 Awards dinner and was accepted by the Met Opera General Manager, Peter Gelb, via satellite direct from New York.
In 2007, Screen began working with All Mobile Video and the Met Opera to produce a high quality multi-language subtitling system to extend live performances to audiences around the globe.
Using the very latest Screen technology, the Met has been able to subtitle live HD performances in a range of languages showing in over 900 venues, in over 40 countries.
The Met also uses a Screen MSX subtitle monitoring system to see multi-language subtitles simultaneously.
Met Opera TV-Graphics Supervisor Deborah Cavanaugh explained: "Screen's live multi-language technology has united people around the world into a single opera audience."
Mark Schubin, Engineer-in-Charge at the Met Opera Media Department stated: "Screen has been with us every step of the way, even in the middle of the night and on weekend. Screen has always been extremely responsive, no matter what the question."
Ritchie Wirth Jr, Engineer-in-Charge of All-Mobile Video's Titan OB production unit said: "Simon Hailes and the Screen support team have always been right on the money and extremely helpful."
Replying, Simon Hailes, CTO at Screen Subtitling Systems, said: "This was a highly challenging contract for us and we are glad that our expertise and technology have played their part. Our congratulations go to the Met Opera for this prestigious win!"
