“Our goal has been to establish a studio in Europe that will support producers with very strong American and European brands. Having a highly respected company like FotoKem on the lot is a major benefit for the production community. We couldn’t be more pleased."

-Michael Moore, President, Raleigh Studios

Raleigh Studios, the largest independent studio operator in the United States, has formed a strategic alliance with FotoKem to operate a full service lab and post production facility out of Raleigh’s new state of the art studio in Budapest.

Raleigh’s European partner in the venture, Origo Film Group, has championed the development of this project from its inception and has been a strong advocate of FotoKem.

FotoKem’s lab, digital service and visual effects operations will be outfitted with the very latest in technology and host services not available anywhere else in the region. The facility will be directly tied into FotoKem’s Los Angeles operations affording productions tremendous flexibility and economies.

FotoKem is bringing a complete post production facility with a film lab and two full digital intermediate suites. FotoKem will provide front end services for film, video and data camera acquisition, visual effects, and advanced 2k and 4k finishing. The facility will be based and built upon FotoKem’s many years of experience in the industry, and services provided by FotoKem will allow productions to qualify their post production work under Hungary’s
25% production tax incentive.

Raleigh Studios Budapest is well under construction and will open its doors in April, 2010. The facility is less than 20 minutes from all major hotels and downtown Budapest making it the closest studio facility to the heart of Hungary.
