The NFA has recently finished its large and complex project Digital Restoration of Czech Film Heritage. Within this project, 14 feature films and programs were digitally restored and returned to cinemas.
NFA's representative presented and discussed her experience with digitization, related supervision, collaboration, and outreach. Tereza Frodlova not only introduced methods and procedures employed during digital restoration, but also questions and dilemmas related to digitizing.
Using real life examples from recently digitized films, she focused on the role of reference print(s) in the process of digital restoration and understanding film material.
