21 FILMS DIGITALIZED

Starting from October, 2007 until today Yerevan Studio has digitalized 21 films, Yerevan Studio Chief Engineer Gagik Hakobyan told Panorama.am. In his words, 30 films are expected to be digitalized annually. “We have no problems connected with digitalization in terms of technology and funds. However, if we had better equipment, we would progress more quickly,” Hakobyan mentioned. In his words, Public Television provides all the funds necessary for digitalization. The technology for the digitalization of films is conditionally named “Toros Roslin.” Yerevan Studio Director Levon Galstyan said that not only they hope to improve the physical state of films with the new technology but also to reproduce better colors.
