"Studio 100 International is breathing new life into its iconic classic series,
embarking on a remastering project to make them available in Full-HD and 16:9
widescreen format for the very first time. Iconic IPs such as
Sindbad,
Pinocchio,
Alice in Wonderland,
Anne of Green Gables,
Nils Holgersson,
Marco,
Vic the Viking,
Maya the Bee and
Heidi will soon be spruced up
for a new generation of young viewers — as well as adults who grew up with
them.
This initiative is part of Studio 100 International’s broader licensing
campaign, “Heroes of Childhood,” which unites these classic properties under
one brand, celebrating their enduring appeal across generations.
Studio 100 International will present this project and first remastered
episodes at this year’s MIPCOM in Cannes, Booth R7.K17.
The remastering process employs AI technology to transform the original content
from the 1970s into a vibrant and high-quality Full-HD experience. After a
thorough analysis of the source material, specific optimizations are identified
and addressed. AI-assisted upscaling is then applied rendering oversized frames
to generate additional visual information necessary for the adaptation to 16:9
format.
Once upscaled, the material undergoes manual refinement with each scene
meticulously reviewed and adjusted to ensure the integrity of the original
content while achieving the optimal widescreen display in native 1920×1080
resolution. Audio tracks are also carefully reconstructed allowing for the
integration of various language versions. To finalize the process localized
versions of the titles and credits are produced ensuring the remastered series
are ready for global distribution."
