Kodak and the Budapest Summer School • Kodak is delighted to sponsor the Budapest Summer School for the fifth time. This most successful event, combining as it does, workshops and masterclasses for students of cinematography drawn from many countries, precisely fulfills the Kodak aim of supporting students internationally both financially and in kind. The Summer School enables students to learn from established, master cinematographers and also to practice their own skills and to experiment with their ideas. Kodak is committed to supporting the future generation of cinematographers and in this way, we can be involved in the development of talented individuals who will benefit from this assistance.

The Kodak Day is on Friday 3 September when Kodak personnel will make presentations and be available for discussion. The Kodak Worldwide Student Program has been designed to be responsive to the needs of film schools. See the full details on the Kodak website - link to http://www.kodak.com/US/en/motion/indx.shtml

TIFFEN • Developer of the Tiffen Crystal Image Software

A feature cinematographer and director, Marty Ollstein is currently dedicated to bridging the gap between cinematography and digital technology. Working extensively with Tiffen camera filters as a Director of Photography, Ollstein saw the need for a precise digital equivalent of the filter effects, and developed for Tiffen the Crystal Image software. Designed to make the entire Tiffen optical filter library available in the digital domain, Crystal Image is currently available as a plug-in to Discreet's Flame and Inferno, and Kodak's Cineon. Tiffen plans to port Crystal Image to additional platforms and make the technology available to the entire motion picture, broadcast, and print communities. The software bridges the creative communication gap between cinematography and digital image processing by providing a benchmark for filtration, and facilitating the filmmaker’s continuous involvement throughout all aspects of production. Some of his Ollstein's directing credits include Bobby (Cannes Official Selection, ASC Award) and Dangerous Love (starring Elliott Gould). His cinematography credits range from Haircut (John Cassavetes) and Olivia Newton-John’s Dolphin Song, to Penitentiary 1 and 3. A graduate of Stanford University and UCLA Graduate Film School, he received awards from the American Society of Cinematographers and the Director's Guild of America. He has taught cinematography at UCLA and the San Francisco Academy of Art, and is currently developing a course for UCLA on Lighting and Filtration - from the physical to the digital realm.

TIFFEN has been manufacturing high quality optical filters for over 60 years, and has become the world's leading supplier of camera filters and accessories. Tiffen has been recognized by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences with two Academy Awards for Nat and Ira Tiffen, and the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences with an 'Emmy' for the Tiffen Company. Tiffen's development of the Crystal Image software is representative of the company's commitment to the integration of digital technology into the company's mission.
