Digital Cinema is a replacement and "improvement" for film based motion picture image capture, storage, editing, and projection. In Digital Cinema images are stored in computer image files rather than on photographic film. In Digital Cinema images are edited on computers rather than with mechanical devices like Optical Printers and splicers.
The sub-sections linked to below give you some general information and an Overview about the subject of Digital Cinema and how my programs can help you produce very high quality results in a feature length "motion picture" project with out the high cost of using motion picture film for image capture or post production steps.
