IO Film Announces New Deal With Film Duplication Firm

iO Film, a North Hollywood-based digital film finishing company has entered into a new strategic and financial partnership with Matt Cooper, owner of duplication firm, Lightning Media. The new partnership is a result of the on-going demand from the entertainment industry for digital intermediate mastering services, and will allow iO film to package clients’ film finishing and video deliverable services through its new association with Lightning. As a result of this new strategic and financial alliance, iO Film will be relocating in early Summer 2005 to a new, 30,000 square foot facility in Hollywood, on Cahuenga Blvd., just south of Sunset Blvd. The new site will triple the number of iO Film’s current DI suites, and will allow the company to add a significant amount of new high-end hardware and software.
