Abstract: The partial results of a collaborative research project conducted by researchers at Gjøvik University College and Lillehammer University College are described in this paper. The goal of the project is to develop methods and tools for improving the control of color information in the production and presentation of digital video. The project represents a unique attempt to bring together two scientific communities—graphic arts and television/video production—on a theme of common interest, namely color. The color quality achieved by a system for digital distribution and presentation of cinema commercials has been investigated. Results show that the “quality bottleneck” is the digital projector. The “business-type” projector does not yield sufficient image quality, especially in large theaters.

bio
Jon Y. Hardeberg received an M.Sc. degree in signal processing from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU, Trondheim, Norway) in 1995. He received a Ph.D. in signal and image processing from Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Télécommunications (Paris, France) in 1999, with a dissertation on color image acquisition and reproduction, using both colorimetric and multispectral approaches. He then worked for 2 1/2 years as a color scientist in Redmond, WA, designing, implementing, and evaluating color imaging system solutions for multifunction peripherals and other imaging devices and systems. He is currently an associate professor at the Norwegian Color Research Laboratory at Gjøvik University College in Norway, where he teaches and researches in the field of color imaging science. He is the Norwegian representative to CIE Division 8, and a member of IS&T, SPIE, ISCC, and IARIGAI.

bio
Gudmund Stjernvang began his career as a television engineer at the Norwegian Broadcasting Corp. (NRK, Oslo, Norway) in 1969. He then worked at NRK for almost 20 years, in miscellaneous parts of the production of radio and television. In 1988, he joined Gjøvik College of Engineering (Now Gjøvik University College) and in 1995 Lillehammer University College, where he now teaches sound and video technology in the bachelor programs, “Directing for Television” and “Professional Broadcasting.” Since 1996, he has also worked at Fabelaktiv (Hamar, Norway) as TOM (technical operation manager) for several TV productions.
