“Our films need to be presented in the best possible quality. Barco laser projectors allow us to just that by visually impressing our discerning audience that ranges from international industry professionals to local film enthusiasts,” says Ove Sander, Technical Manager Digital Cinema for Berlinale.
Long-term partners in cinema innovation
Barco and the Berlinale have collaborated on bringing the latest cinema technologies to audiences since 2004, when the first digital screening occurred at the Berlinale using two Barco cinema projectors. Now, 15 years later, Berlinale continues to embrace Barco’s latest innovations to delight guests at the festival, joining with other cinema pioneers to fuel this new era of laser projection in Western Europe.
“We are honored to grow our close collaboration with Berlinale, the biggest audience film festival worldwide. Barco partnered with the festival 15 years ago to tackle the challenges of the digital era, and we are pleased to continue our journey into the future of cinema together,” comments Wim Buyens, CEO of the New Cinema Joint Venture. “As the market leader, Barco offers the broadest portfolio of best-in-class projectors, ensuring the perfect match for every screen.
