ARHT Media (ART) is working with the Hong Kong International Film Festival (HKIFF) to beam notable film personalities to international film festivals.

This will include Hong Kong producer and director Stanley Kwan, who will be beamed to the tropical location of Bali for a live Q&A. There will also be an introduction of his critically acclaimed classic film Rogue, for the opening ceremony on June 9, 2022.

As part of amplifying Asian, Hong Kong, and Chinese film culture and expanding its profile worldwide, HKIFF has organized a series of collaborations later this year with several other International Film Festivals across the globe.

HKIFF will be utilizing ARHT’s HoloPresence™ technology to beam leading producers, directors, and actors active in Hong Kong’s film industry to screenings, featuring Hong Kong cinema.

It doesn’t just stop in Hong Kong, this technology will also be utilized in London, Sydney, Singapore, Bangkok, Stockholm, and Prague later this year.

“We’re able to create something very special as we collaborate with International Film Festivals across the world, and work to raise the profile of Hong Kong cinema,” said Head of Events & Marketing, Lemon Lim.

The future may be closer than we think, with people not having to travel to be in the room with friends and coworkers. “ARHT’s technology makes it feel like the speaker is with you in person, so the experience is quite memorable,” added Lim.

ARHT is a pioneer in the live hologram industry and their HoloPresence™ technology offers a complete end-to-end solution for the Capture, Transmission and Display of live holograms for in-person, hybrid and online events.

They are also a range of hologram display solutions to suit multiple use cases, like the online presentation solution, the Virtual Global Stage™ and the largest global Holographic Telepresence network of hologram Capture and Display locations, ensuring a presenter can beam into a meeting or event as a live hologram from virtually anywhere in the world. I guess we will all be saying, “Beam me up Scotty,” sooner than we thought.

ARHT Media (ART) is up over 21 per cent, trading at C$0.23 at 12:58 pm EST.
