Tri-Ergon
The Tri-Ergon sound-on-film system was developed from around 1919 by three German inventors, Josef Engl (1893–1942), Joseph Massolle (1889–1957), and Hans Vogt (1890–1979). The system used a photoelectric recording method and a non-standard film size (42mm) which incorporated the sound track with stock 35mm film. With a Swiss backer, the inventors formed Tri-Ergon AG in Zurich, and tried to interest the market with their invention. Ufa acquired the German sound film rights for the Tri-Ergon process in 1925, but dropped the system when the public showing of their first sound film suffered technical failures. The Tri-Ergon system appeared at a time when a number of other sound film processes were arriving on the market, and the company soon merged with a number of competitors to form the Tobis syndicate in 1928, joined by the Klangfilm AG syndicate in 1929 and renamed as Tobis-Klangfilm by 1930. While Tri-Ergon became the dominant sound film process in Germany and much of E ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

ATV (Russia)
ATV (Author Television) is the oldest Russian private TV company. It was founded in the USSR on September 15, 1988 by Anatoly Malkin and Kira Proshutinskaya. It reached its height in popularity in Russia in the 1990s. The television company was founded on September 15, 1988 with the support of the cooperative of the architect Yuri Makarov (a story about him was previously filmed in the program " Peace and Youth", where Kira Proshutinskaya worked). The name ATV was coined by Anatoly Malkin. He deciphered the name as "alternative television", but Malkin's friend and colleague Vladimir Voroshilov suggested the "author's television" option, since in his opinion, the "alternative" decoding was inappropriate. For the first three years, ATV produced projects within the framework of the Main Edition of Programs for Youth, from which Malkin and Proshutinskaya came out. The first program of the TV company was the "Press Club" talk show, which aired in September 1989. The first document ...
