Toshihiko Tahara's 'DANCE with KING of IDOL2025' is a special screening that elevates the excitement of his live stage performance held at the Tokyo International Forum in the fall of 2025 into an immersive experience only possible in a cinema. By introducing 'Re:Live,' a new JUUQX option service that refines the audio and visuals of past works to cinema-quality standards, it offers a new type of ODS screening that transcends traditional live performance broadcasts. Additionally, through JUUQX's 'Matching Support,' which provides stable high-quality streaming, the service assisted in selecting and coordinating cinemas that align with the artist's vision.
'Re:Live' Solution: Redefining Archival Assets for Theaters This event introduces 'Re:Live,' which breathes new life into past recorded works, optimizing them specifically for the ultimate viewing environment of a cinema. This provides an 'ultimate re-experience' that goes beyond simple large-screen, high-volume screenings, vividly reviving the excitement of the original venue.
Pursuit of Hyper-Reality Through technical collaboration with IMAGICA Entertainment Media Services for image processing and prime sound studio form for audio mastering, the experience is polished into a vivid viewing session that feels like being at the actual live venue, distinct from watching a Blu-ray package.
Image Processing: Utilizes SAIP, an AI-based super-resolution solution developed by IMAGICA Entertainment Media Services. By precisely adjusting contrast, brightness, saturation, and noise reduction, it improves details lost in dark areas and reproduces the vibrant light and rich colors unique to live venues.
Audio Processing: Performs equalization, balance adjustment, and upmixing specialized for cinemas, enabling the reproduction of sound ranges not possible with standard cinema acoustics (X-curve) and conversion to spatial audio.
Fan Engagement through 'Re-experience' By reviving past excitement with even greater vividness than at the time, this breathes new life into the artist's valuable assets. It builds an experience model that delivers new emotions to fans, such as 'pre-festival screenings' aligned with the latest live tours or special commemorative events.
'Matching Support': Connecting Works and Theaters with Expert Knowledge While interest in ODS screenings—enjoying concert and event broadcasts in cinemas—has grown, understanding cinema specifications and adjusting exhibition conditions have been major challenges for organizers.
JUUQX's Matching Support leverages the expert knowledge of Hibino Imagineering, which has been involved in the design and construction of cinema projection equipment nationwide for many years, to overcome these hurdles.
Bridging via Experts Who Know Cinema Equipment Inside Out Specialized staff familiar with the equipment of theaters nationwide select the optimal venue based on the organizer's required quality and exhibition conditions. By providing total support from condition adjustment to technical coordination, they build smooth partnerships between organizers and theaters, delivering high-quality content to optimal screening environments.
Contributing to the Diversification of ODS Screenings and Revitalization of Entertainment JUUQX aims to provide total value by combining its core 'stable high-quality streaming' with 'organizer-theater matching' and 'content high-definition processing (Re:Live).' By offering the option of a 'premium audio-visual experience' to all kinds of events, it creates new experiential value for ODS screenings and contributes to the further development of the entertainment market.
