2. New MoPix-equipped Theaters Coming to MA

Great news! National Amusements will equip four more of its theaters in

Massachusetts with MoPix systems this summer. It is estimated one

auditorium at each location will be up and running with closed captioned and

described films in July. They are:

National Amusements Showcase Cinema Lawrence

National Amusements Showcase Cinema North Attleboro

National Amusements Showcase Cinema Seekonk

National Amusements Showcase Cinema Woburn

3. Captions and Description for Digital Cinema

Will captioning and description, and MoPix systems specifically, continue to

work with digital cinema equipment? Can Rear Window work with 3D movies?

The answers are yes and yes. The Media Access Group has been working with

film industry standards groups for over two years to ensure captioning (open

and closed) and description remain available to theaters and their patrons.

We'll keep this item, and a link to the latest information on the subject on

our Web site, in future weekly MoPix Updates.
