Deluxe New York, a subsidiary of Deluxe Entertainment Services Group, has launched online editorial and visual effects services for the New York television and commercial market.
The new services are as a result of a collaboration between Deluxe and Ben Murray, whose online and visual effects editorial credits include NBC’s 30 Rock, Showtime’s Nurse Jackie, and HBO’s Bored to Death.
Murray’s expertise goes beyond editing. He began working in the industry as a colorist in 2001, expanding his career to image restoration and animation. His body of work includes television episodic, specials, documentaries and feature films including Michael Moore’s Capitalism: A Love Story where he served as supervising conform editor.
Deluxe is making an aggressive move to partner with creative talent to add to its array of services. “Deluxe has been in the New York market for two years now, and we felt it was the right time to partner with top notch creative talent to complement our editorial and postproduction services,” said Mike Jackman, VP/general manager, Deluxe New York. “Ben brings a wealth of experience, fantastic attitude and immense talent. We are thrilled to be partnered with him.”
Deluxe New York is a full service television and film postproduction facility offering processing of both 35mm and 16mm film, HD/SD telecine, a full EFILM® Digital Intermediate platform, as well as Media Management services for film and video deliverables. A 40-seat new screening theater supports multiple-format digital and film projection in premier digital audio formats.
Christopher Nolan’s Next Film Is Based On “The Odyssey”
Christopher Nolan is following his Oscar-winning "Oppenheimer" with a true epic: Homer's "The Odyssey." It will open in theaters on July 17, 2026, Universal Pictures said Monday.
Details remain scarce, but the studio teased that it will be a "mythic action epic shot across the world using brand new IMAX technology." It will also be the first time that an adaptation of Homer's saga will play on IMAX film screens.
Nolan has been an IMAX enthusiast for years, going back to "The Dark Knight," and has made his last three films exclusively using large format film and the highest resolution film cameras. For "Oppenheimer," the first black-and-white IMAX film stock was developed. Nolan hasn't said specifically what the new technology for "The Odyssey" will be, but earlier this month he told The Associated Press that they're in an intensive testing phase with IMAX to prepare for the new production.
"They have an incredible engineering staff, really brilliant minds doing extraordinary work," Nolan said. "It's wonderful to see innovation in the celluloid film arena still happening and happening at the highest level possible."
"The Odyssey" will be Nolan's second collaboration with Universal Pictures following "Oppenheimer," which earned nearly $1 billion at the box office and won the filmmaker his first Oscars, including for best director and best picture. Rumors about his next project have been swirling ever since, with near-daily speculations about plot — none of which turned out to be true — and casting. While there are many reports about actors joining the ensemble, none has been officially confirmed by the studio.
