homson announced the re-launch of Technicolor’s Rome-based film laboratory and post-production facility. This initiative comes in response to the growth in the capacity needs of Technicolor’s customers in Europe and other markets. Direct contributors to this growth include a 16 percent rise in wide releases for top-tier theatrical titles from 1999 to 2002, coupled with a 15 percent increase in total European print counts, and the continued expansion of Technicolor’s customer base with the recent addition of a long-term Universal contract.
