Designed to recreate the acoustics and ambience of the studio, THX cinemas allow audiences to experience their favorite movies exactly like the director intended
Future Projections are UK representatives for the THX cinema certification programme, theatre alignment and recertification services. We are the only UK organisation to be factory trained and hold but the R2 and D2 acoustic analyser systems.
Outside the certification programme, non THX theatres can also benefit from having their rooms set up using THX equipment and techniques, sharing the quality of set up used in Hollywood and the West End's top premiere venues.
THX Certified Cinemas offer movie-goers the ultimate cinematic experience. Why? Because every THX Certified Cinema is designed and tested to ensure that it meets all standards for sound and picture excellence in categories such as:
Room acoustics - crisp accurate cinema sound through controlled reverberation and sound isolation ,
Image quality - high resolution, clear images with standardized screen illumination and minimized distortion ,
Projection - audience viewing angles, image cropping, and projector placement that result in the best possible picture presentation
Sound system - THX approved equipment and alignment for optimal sound reproduction
The result is that cinema audiences experience movies that look and sound great. They enjoy:
Precise audio localization that tracks the action across the screen
A wide frequency range that delivers higher highs and lower lows
A naturally balanced sound and planned sight lines so that every seat is the "best in the house"
Accurate, true-to-life images Highly intelligible dialog and decreased distortion
A clearer, more realistic movie-going experience
If you're a cinema owner, THX certification puts you in an elite class of cinemas that enjoy tangible benefits of certification. In addition to offering your audience an optimal cinematic experience, you gain a competitive advantage with clear bottom-line rewards. Independent consumer research shows that movie-goers recognize and prefer the THX brand when selecting a cinema. THX also provides marketing support to Certified Cinema owners to assist them in promoting their elite cinemas to public audiences. Our support program includes light boxes for your auditorium, posters, plaques, promotional items for staff, co-advertising, PR campaigns, and special events for new cinema openings. We offer new flexible program levels to cinema owners so that they can support their individual marketing goals. Everyone wins! If you are interested in providing your audience with the ultimate cinematic experience, talk to us about how to proceed with THX Cinema Certification Market Survey - Why THX is good for box office ..Across all three surveys, more than 82% of participants had heard of THX
Unique to every THX Certified Cinema is the THX "baffle wall." If you were to peel away the screen at any THX Certified Cinema, you will see a massive wall of speakers housed in an acoustic baffle (speaker system enclosure). The placement of the cinema screen is precisely calculated for every THX Certified Cinema. To ensure the best possible viewing experience, THX recommends having a 36 degree viewing angle from the farthest seat in the auditorium.
