The Danish Film Institute's (DFI) Film Archive department is acquiring a film scanner for professional scanning of analogue film, in different formats and quality options.
The content that will be digitized is old Danish analogue documentaries and documentary recordings. The operation of the film scanning system and the digitization will be conducted by external suppliers as well as in-house with a DFI digitizing set up, which will be placed at and handled by DFI. Included in the contract are maintenance services for the scanner.
The goal of the film scanner system is to implement the political mandate to digitize film, given to DFI.
