15 Nov – Recently, Technicolor and KRU Studios have announced their collaboration in KRU Studios's current and upcoming feature films, both local and international, from the digital and analogue side of production. Technicolor's Asian studio houses some of the industry's leading creative and technology professionals as well as being providers and suppliers of high-end digital and analogue visual effects. In addition, they also deal with physical media and digital content delivery services. Hailing from Malaysia since 1992, KRU Studios is well-known for their work in film production, contributing photo-real visuals and digital audio and video using cutting edge technology and state of the art equipment. The multi-picture deal will see Technicolor providing a full spectrum of services for KRU Studio, which includes digital post and film laboratory services, Dolby 5.1 sound mastering, 35mm prints as well as digital cinema mastering for selected Stereoscopic 3D films in digital cinema packages (DCPs). "Stereoscopic 3D is not only becoming the industry's standard format for exhibition internationally, but it will also set a new benchmark for local films in enhancing viewers' cinematic experience," commented Executive President of KRU Studios, Norman Abdul Halim. "Having Technicolor as our technical partner will allow us to achieve the international standards of visual and audio quality at par with the world's best," he added. This collaboration will see fruit in the form of the romantic comedy "Cinta Kura-Kura" followed by "29 Februari", "Vikingdom" and "Ribbit". However, unlike the other feature films, "Cinta Kura-Kura" will not be available on Stereoscopic 3D. "Cinta Kura-Kura" due for release next year tells the story of Nani, a bubbly 21-year old girl, and her pet turtle, Nico, who have the unique ability to talk to any human he wishes to. However, when Nani falls for their budding musician neighbour, Adam, Nico does everything in his power to sabotage the couple.
