Author Topic: MGM to go Cyan in May Brad Allen Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 688 From: Evansville, IN, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 03-31-2004 04:00 PM                     Can anyone confirm that Shrek 2 is going to be released May 21 with a Cyan track? That's what my booker is telling me. I don't see it announced anywhere else.  |  IP: Logged John Pytlak Film God Posts: 9987 From: Rochester, NY 14650-1922 Registered: Jan 2000 posted 04-01-2004 07:46 AM                        I have NOT heard anything about "Shrek 2" being released with cyan dye analog tracks, although Mark Christiansen of Dreamworks was pleased with how last September's release of Woody Allen's "Anything Else" went: quote: DTC's first success came when DreamWorks, headed by distribution chief Jim Tharp and operations head Mark Christiansen, released Woody Allen's "Anything Else" with a cyan soundtrack in a limited theatrical run in September (HR 7/16). DTC worked overtime in advance, waging an aggressive fax and film-can flier campaign aimed at making theater owners aware of the change. Christiansen said that the release, processed through Technicolor Rome, went off without any major hitches, but that DreamWorks wanted to see more studios adopt the change before committing to cyan soundtracks for all its releases.
