Author Topic: DTS Sparks! Aaron Garman Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: Toledo, OH USA Registered: Mar 2003 posted 07-11-2005 01:27 PM                     So I was glancing at a recent trailer disc from DTS and listed was "DTS Sparks!". Anyone know of this trailer?

I havn't looked at it yet, but I assume its just the latest DTS policy run.  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 07-11-2005 09:20 PM                        Be nice if they'd ship some prints out. 2 trailers in 13 years... that's kind of pathetic.  |  IP: Logged Aaron Garman Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: Toledo, OH USA Registered: Mar 2003 posted 07-11-2005 11:23 PM                     Wolff, How did you get those ads? I'm probably due to order some new ones, so wondering if I can request them?

Maybe they can give you a lead on how to get these tags.  |  IP: Logged Mike Spaeth Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1129 From: Marietta, GA Registered: Jul 2000 posted 07-12-2005 10:13 AM                        Aaron - contact the purchasing department in your corporate office. They will order those for you. You can get one DTS & one Dolby Digital for each unit that you have per quarter for free. Just send in a requisition (I used to work for your company).  |  IP: Logged Aaron Garman Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: Toledo, OH USA Registered: Mar 2003 posted 07-12-2005 12:46 PM                     Thanks Mike. That's the drill I've always followed, but I'm just hoping they'd send the new trailer. Last time I ordered DTS trailers and asked for Sonic Landscape, I got Digital Experience. Albeit, they were the revised version of Digital Experience.

So, until the warehouse places another order ... I think you'll just have to wait ...  |  IP: Logged Wolff King Morrow Master Film Handler Posts: 490 From: Denton, TX, USA Registered: Feb 2004 posted 07-15-2005 05:06 PM                        I emailed Karen Hultgren directly. She will send your theater any DTS ads you want free of charge. You can specify between the "Sparks", "Piano" and "The Flying Disc".  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-13-2005 08:07 PM                        We got ours. They are good, if too brief - they show off the sound system better than Sonic Landscape, but they're only about 5 or 6 seconds long, if that. The other quibble I have is, the final logo only says DTS -- it doesn't include the words digital sound anywhere, so infrequent (or non-tech-head) moviegoers may not know what the hell DTS means. On the good side -- A nice touch is that the scope and flat versions have different sound.  |  IP: Logged Thomas Dieter Expert Film Handler Posts: 234 From: Yakima, WA Registered: Jun 2004 posted 08-14-2005 01:34 AM                     For those that are looking for the number to contact for DTS trailers, here's the number. DTS Trailer Orders 818-706-3525 x317 Sharon Henderson  |  IP: Logged Heath Dutton Film Handler Posts: 37 From: Montgomery, Alabama / United States of America Registered: Jul 2005 posted 08-14-2005 07:25 PM                     I love the new "sparks", we just got ours, and the theme goes extremely well with our Rave policy trailer. I love the fact that it's short. Thats the only thing I liked about sonic landscape. Another plus is that it's pretty dark, and if used on a dozen prints it won't show dirt or scratches as easily as sonic landscape or the flying disk of horror.  |  IP: Logged Daniel Schulz Master Film Handler Posts: 387 From: Los Angeles, CA USA Registered: Sep 2003 posted 08-15-2005 11:38 AM                        Actually, Sharon Henderson is the contact for requesting the DTS Trailer Subscription Disc. To request 35mm prints of the new Sparks! trailers, please call Beth Neal at 818-706-3525 or email her at bneal@dtsonline.com. Thanks, Daniel @ DTS  |  IP: Logged Hannes Helfenstein Film Handler Posts: 50 From: Hergiswil, Switzerland Registered: Sep 2004 posted 08-29-2005 04:13 PM                        Can anyone tell me any details about the new DTS-trailer(s)? Are they also in DTS-ES? Thanks for every information.  |  IP: Logged Mike B. Smith Film Handler Posts: 82 From: Universal City Registered: Nov 2004 posted 08-29-2005 04:49 PM                     Yes the new spark trailers are in DTS-ES. Also strange but true, both scope and flat DTS sparks have the same picture but different soundtracks. Trailers can be obtained by requesting them from cinematech@dtsonline.com  |  IP: Logged
