Wired Film Buffs

Filed under: Macintosh, videodigital — Rob @ 7:53 am and



This Wired article is for film buffs everywhere. It’s a story about a company called DTS Digital Images and the man behind it all–John Lowry. Lowry and his company take old movie footage and restore it using digital film scanners and 700 Macs. The company’s list of restored films include the Star Wars trilogy, James Bond films, and many others.

As a teacher I especially enjoyed the last paragraph.

When asked how he landed here, Lowry’s expression turns serious. “I have dyslexia,” he says. “I didn’t read my first book until I was 30.” He pauses, and then smiles. “I’m a picture person.”
