Coming soon, a complete Fantasia, with the original Fantasound audio, but in Mag soundtrack.

I took a bath on this one cost wise, but I think it will be worth it.

Organising scanning was tricky, had to purchase a Simplex 35mm mag-penthouse to get the sound, and ship those parts to the guy that was doing the scanning, and he had to wire it all up and align it all to get the best possible audio out of it.

If you want to know more about the Fantasound process, you can read it all here:

It is a Stokowski Fantasound print, so in addition to the audio, it was designed to have a lens switch in and out during different scenes for a ‘widescreen’ effect, so there will be some work to be done.

As well as the standard cleanup and restoration etc. which is all yet to be done.

Thanks again to everyone that has worked on this so far, you will never have seen Fantasia quite like this 😃
