The film processing lab of the Mosfilm film company has the most up-to-date technological equipment, the latest technologies in the sphere of the processing of the negative and positive films are used in production. The high-skilled professionals providing the high quality of the products are working in this lab.

The film processing lab of the Mosfilm film company includes the following departments:

  • section of negative film development
  • section of positive film development, section of printing
  • section of color and light settings, section of negative cutting
  • sound technical section
  • section for restoration and ultrasonic cleaning of the film materials
  • Testing laboratory
  • Section for receiving and assembling orders
  • Stockroom of source film materials

The technical control section controls the quality of the current negative, interpositives and internegatives, positive film copies, evaluates the quality of video and audio. Film copies are watched on the CTM DEBRIE (France) displays.

For actual quality control, Technical control section uses two screening rooms. The first one has 15 seats and the most up-to-date multifunctional equipment for screening. It includes two "Kinoton" (Germany) projectors with replaceable multi-format optical heads. These devices allow us to watch video at projection speed from one to 40 fps, both forward and backward, in a freeze frame mode, in synchronous operation mode simultaneously from two positions on one control panel. Also, it allows us to rewind film at a rate of up to 100 frames per minute, forward and backward. In the room, there is a sound playing system: mono, stereo, Dolby, DTS. Besides, the room is equipped with a computer system for controlling the sound quality.

The second screening room has 60 seats and is equipped with two projectors Kinoton with replaceable multi-format optical heads. There is also a sound playing system: mono, stereo, Dolby, DTS
