The "reel-free" studio: The digital revolution

Bits and bytes can replace long courier journeys and costly recording tape. This is the mantra of an innovative solution that significantly increases the transfer speed over traditional transport methods for film material. The problem: Synchronization studios have no choice but to await receipt of their film and audio materials from their employers per courier. After completing the synchronization, the studios must then return the materials in the same way – an extremely time and cost intense process. The answer: the “reel free” studio. In cooperation with an American partner, TV+Synchron has developed a cost effective system for the transfer of audio and visual material via Internet. Following the download of the data, the original sound version can be directly translated into the German language. All that is required is a modern data network and a particularly fast Internet browser – just like those provided at Adlershof and used by TV+Synchron in implementing this innovation, which is now widely respected in the industry.
