The Newest Digital Technology for an Old Newsreel Company

LONDON, January 15 /PRNewswire/ -- In 1929 British Movietonews Limited
was the first cinema newsreel company to introduce sound newsreels; until
that time newsreels like feature films were silent. Now once again British
Movietonews leads the way introducing the most modern digital technology in
the industry.
With new cutting edge technology the company can download broadcast
quality files anyplace in the world in a matter of minutes. This means that
stories from the company's entire collection of high quality newsreels,
featuring people, places and things that can't be recreated, can be
downloaded over the internet in a matter of minutes.
This service is of special interest to international customers who now no
longer have to wait days for tape transfers and expensive courier delivery
for the material they need for inclusion in their documentaries, commercials
or music videos.
It is possible for anyone to research and view the entire archive
collection at no charge on the company's website http://www.movietone.com;
material can then be requested in either broadcast or screening resolution.
This material will be downloaded over the internet from our headquarters in
London using Movietone's specialized software and dedicated fibre-optic
internet connection.
To better serve our customers British Movietonews has a network of local
agents to help clients with their research and technological requirements.
The agents are located in New York, Paris, Milan, Mainz, Stockholm, Panama,
Lima, Santiago, Buenos Aires, Sao Paulo, Mexico City, Tokyo, Seoul, Hong
Kong, Bangkok and Sydney. The contact details for all the above offices are
on the website http://www.movietone.com.
