In celebration of Silent Movie Day earlier this week (September 29th), Gartenberg Media is pleased to announce our new partnership with Undercrank Productions to distribute rare silent films to North American academic institutions on digital formats.

Undercrank Productions was founded in 2013 by silent film historian and composer Ben Model. Undercrank works with archives and private collectors to bring undiscovered classics of silent cinema from film cans to film fans. Each digital restoration has been spearheaded by Model and is presented in new digital scans in either HD or 2K, and features new musical scores on piano or theatre organ.
