Filmmaker/Screenwriter John Orloff Writes Rave Review of SilverStar

Filmmaker and Screenwriter John Orloff, who wrote the HBO show, “Band of Brothers”
and the recent Angelina Jolie film, “A Mighty Heart,” is a big fan of the SilverStar^TM screen.

“I am absolutely blown away by this screen,” wrote Orloff in an online review in the AV Science Forum.

Here are excerpts of his commentary:

“I am a professional filmmaker…and have extremely high standards (and a degree of knowledge) regarding the technical expectations of theater-viewing.

“I originally had a (competitive) screen, and was extremely displeased with my luminance…So after much thinking and looking at the posts here, I chose to buy SilverStar, which I have had for about 3 weeks. And I couldn’t be more happy that I did. The difference is day and night.

BRIGHTNESS
“First off, the brightness difference is amazing. Significantly brighter. Way brighter.
Crazy brighter. In a good way. Even with the lamp at “low” position and the brightness at
a lower setting, the screen is very bright.

AMBIENT LIGHT
“I am quite impressed how well this screen does handle ambient light.

COLOR
“Fantastic. The colors pop in a way that was unexpected. Old Technicolor films particularly stand out. I went to UCLA film school, and had the luck to see so many great films projected in ideal circumstances. The Technicolor reds and purples that the Silverstar creates are just gorgeous. Truly, I have never seen those rich tones so accurately reproducted in a non-film theater before. Until this screen, that is.

CONCLUSION
“You can tell I’m a fan of this screen….With the SilverStar, I have been on “low” for the first 200 hours of my new bulb. I’m hoping to stay on low for awhile before I switch to “high” mode, thereby increasing its life. Everything I have read makes me think my bulb will last longer with this screen.

“Anyhow, you get the idea. I highly recommend this screen.”
