Project 04 is just about completed. This project was color restoration only. First the blue channel needs to be stabilized shot by shot (almost 2000 shots). Then the color gets balanced and corrected scene by scene. #OpaqueMedia #Film #FilmRestoration #FilmPreservation

I kinda feel I have not said “thank you” enough. Especially since the Fall of 2018. Somehow, someway I will eat pizza with all of you. (And drink some beers) #ThankYou again for your continued support, the pushes forward and the patience. #opaquemedia #undeadarmy

Morning! There will be another client restoration example today or tomorrow. This week I also start reviewing Project 04 for Error 4444. But still trying to relax and ease into 2024. But #OpaqueMedia ends the year on better footing than when it started. THANK YOU!!
