Muse Plan First Ever 4K Concert Film With ‘Live at Rome Olympic Stadium, July 2013’

 

Muse are leaping into the cutting edge of technology with the upcoming Nov. 5th release of Muse – Live at Rome Olympic Stadium, July 2013. The project marks the first concert film ever to be presented in 4K, a format expected to be adopted by Hollywood as standard for all blockbuster films. 

Also known as Ultra High Definition, 4K delivers a massive increase in pixels – 8.8 million of them – in every frame. The rate is four times more than we’re used to seeing in the cinema. This means we’ll be immersed in the full visual spectrum of Muse’s landmark Rome stadium show, which was shot in July this year. The Ultra High Definition format gives the cinema audience astonishing detail combining jaw-dropping shots of the Stadio Olimpico with views from ‘spider’ cameras darting above the surging crowd of over 60,000 and onstage close-ups of the band amidst a spectacular light show and pyrotechnics.

“This is the biggest tour we’ve done in terms of scale and production value and it’s definitely the show we’re most proud of,” Muse explained in a release. “So we’re really excited to be able to release it as the first ever ultra high definition concert film. It captures an extraordinary amount of detail and not just everything we’re doing – the fans, even those at the back, the set, the actors and the incredible atmosphere on a very special night in Rome. We can promise our fans, whether they managed to come to the live shows or not, an entirely new Muse concert experience.” 

On November 5th, 20 cinemas in 20 cities worldwide will host a special advance screening of Muse – Live at Rome Olympic Stadium, July 2013 exclusively in 4K. The unique screenings will start in Sydney and finish in Los Angeles, taking in other capital cities throughout the day including Tokyo, Paris, London and Rio.

Following the advance screenings, the film will be released in over 700 cinemas in 40 countries for limited screenings.
