Cintel Partners Marquise On Telecine Workflows

A leading provider of film scanning and image enhancement products, Cintel, and Marquise Technologies, designers of post-production solutions, has announced that the new OCEAN Controller will be distributed through Cintel and will fully support all Cintel telecines.
Marquise Technologies, based in Gland, Switzerland, developed the controller and colour corrector in response to a growing market need for a new central system that could control telecines, VTRs Hard Disks, Noise Reducers etc. and also add sophisticated colour correction in a cost-effective package.
Following system testing at a MillenniumHD installation at the Swiss Army in Bern, Cintel and Marquise Technologies have forged a strong alliance where Cintel will distribute the OCEAN system worldwide for use on Millennium, Ursa, C-Reality/DSX film scanners as well as the imageMill and imageMill2 image processing workstations.
Laurence Stoll, CEO of Marquise Technologies, commented: "Since we developed the system, we have repeatedly been asked by the user base if we can provide control for the Cintel products. We have a built a good relationship with Cintel over the last few years and we are very pleased to have forged this partnership where we will support Cintel in the marketing and distribution of OCEAN worldwide."
Simon Carter, Sales Director, Cintel, said: "There was a real need to provide our customers, both new and existing, with an alternative controller and colour corrector for their machines and OCEAN fitted the bill perfectly. Marquise Technologies demonstrated to us a true understanding of the requirements our customers had and we are extremely proud to be able to offer it as a control system for all of our supported telecines, data-cines and image processing products."
Cintel will be showing OCEAN controlling a MillenniumHD data-cine on its stand 7.B35 at IBC in Amsterdam from September 10 - 14 2010.
