“Olympusat has been able to build one-of-a-kind film restoration and colour correction departments,” said Jesus Piñango, director of TV content strategy, Olympusat. “Olympusat invests hundreds of hours per movie in film repair, optical 4K scanning, frame-by-frame restoration, audio sync and restoration, as well as colour correction.”

Piñango will be participating in ‘Cinema and Memory: Recovering Archives’ at the 56th edition of the film festival.

Both Cine Clásico and Ultra Clásico are available across the US Hispanic market, in SD through Mediacom Cable and in HD through Choice Cable, Verizon FiOS and Liberty Cable.
