QUBE Clarifies on VPF of Hollywood films

With regard to the ongoing Tamil Cinema strike initiated by TFPC due to various financial issues faced by the producers for paying higher projection cost, one of the issues put forth by the producers is that, Hollywood films pay no VPF for releasing films in TN, for which Senthil Kumar and Jayendran of QUBE said : "This is also a baseless allegation. In the recent meeting with the producers council, we explained how Hollywood pays the VPF and showed the proof. Even their rates are roughly comparable. We have a non-disclosure clause. So we cannot exactly reveal things. But, the rates they pay are either same or higher than Tamil films."
 

More questions related to the issue was discussed in an exclusive interview with us. Watch the full interview in the link below.

QUBE founders explain the nuances of the projector

The Tamil Film Producers Council (TFPC) are on a strike, stopping new Tamil releases, shooting and post-production works from March 16 owing to high Virtual Print Fee costs by Digital service providers like QUBE and UFO.
 

In an exclusive interview with Behindwoods, the co-founders of QUBE, Senthil Kumar and Jayendra Panchapakesan have answered many allegations and one among them is a clarification on why the cost is high. They said "We are providing high-end industrial projectors. Producers saying that this costs Rs 5 lakh is totally baseless. Our server alone costs Rs 5 lakh. The projector has forensic watermarking, the capability in the software to playback J2K format and other features. This e-cinema setup costs around Rs 10 lakh."
