Chances
are you’d be equally impressed
by what you don’t see, conspicuous
flaws removed from the films by
master digital restorer Lowry
Digital Images. "One
of the biggest problems we had with
Raiders,"
says CEO John Lowry, "was
a blue line cutting across the actors’
faces right down the center of the
first part of the movie, about 35,000
frames of scratches."
And
if you’re loading the movie
now to look for traces of the scratch,
don’t bother. Lowry’s
digital botox, powerful proprietary
software running on a formidable
stack of Power Macs,
removed all traces of the unsightly
line that distracted so persistently
from the more compelling vertical
furrows on the brow of Harrison
Ford.
