Cinelicious Prepares Two Feature Films for Cannes

Max Rose – SELECTED SCENE

HOLLYWOOD, May 09, 2013 | SHOOT Publicity Wire | — Cinelicious is currently providing DI and Mastering for two features, “Max Rose” and “Red Sky,” both heading to one of the most prestigious film events of the year: Festival De Cannes.

“It’s a responsibility and great honor to prepare films for theatrical viewing, especially a legendary film festival that captures global attention and industry-wide recognition,” says Cinelicious Founder Paul Korver. “Our job is always in support of beautiful imagery and filmed storytelling.”

Part of the Cannes Official Selection, “Max Rose” stars Jerry Lewis as a jazz pianist who makes a discovery days before the death of his wife that causes him to believe his sixty-five year marriage was a lie. He embarks on an exploration of his own past that brings him face to face with a menagerie of characters from a bygone era. “Max Rose” is directed by Daniel Noah and lensed by Christopher Blauvelt, with Cinelicious colorist Robert Curreri lending his talent to achieve a subtle and painterly final picture that will screen from DCP.

“Red Sky” is an action thriller directed by Mario Van Peebles starring Shane West, Rachel Lee Cook and Cam Gigandet. Based on the book Kerosene Cowboys by Randy Arrington, the movie follows the rough-riding and hard-living pilots of a rag tag squadron of former Navy Fighter Pilots, engaged in a top-secret mission in the Middle East. Shot 35mm with over 500 VFX shots, the Cinelicious team worked fast and furious to provide VFX plate and DI select scanning, conform, color grading, main title design, and beauty cleanup with final output to DCP on a tight schedule in time for market premiere in France.
