| Lecture by Monsieur Jean-Rene FAILLIOT |  11:30 - 12:00 Restoration of “Play Time”
Jean-Rene Failliot, Gulliver's Technical Director, has a lifetime of 35mm and 65mm film experience behind him, and an unimpeachable standing in the French film world. Trained as a cameraman, he also worked as a gaffer, grip and editor before devoting his energies to optical effects and lab work, founding Arane in November, 1976 with his wife (and company CEO) Veronique Failliot. Since then, Jean-Rene has added a mastery of optical effects, title production, colour grading and photo-chemistry to his professional profile. The founding of Gulliver in 1995 saw the realization of a life-long desire to contribute to the field of large format film. Over the past five years, Jean-Rene has virtually single-handedly customized all of Gulliver's 65mm printers and processors to meet the strict performance levels required by 65mm production.
