History

2005–2008

The company was initially established as Adlabs Films Limited in 1975 by Manmohan Shetty.[5][6]

In 2005, the Reliance ADA Group became a majority stake holder in Adlabs, and in 2009, it was renamed Reliance MediaWorks Limited.[7]

2008–2009

RMW expanded by setting up Asia's first Digital Intermediate Lab with a 4K facility. The lab was accredited by the Federation Against Copyright Theft.[8]

In 2008, RMW acquired a 100% stake in Lowry Digital, a renowned image restoration and enhancement services company based in Burbank, California.[9] Working on projects such as Avatar.[10]

On the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 Moon landing on 16 July 2009, NASA tasked RMW to restore original video footage of the missing Apollo Moon landing tapes. Neil Armstrong expressed his appreciation, stating that "your restored video is now a valuable contribution to space exploration and space communication history…thanks for all you did beyond the call of duty. Our grandchildren and their grandchildren will benefit.[11]"

2010

In early 2010, RMW acquired iLAB UK, a film processing and post production facility located in Soho, London.[12][13]

2011

In March 2011, RMW received a patent called "Obsidian" for creating a method for removing semi-transparent artifacts from digital images caused by contaminants in the camera's optical path. This process received a significant amount of recognition within the entertainment industry, resulting in RMW receiving a Scientific and Technical Oscar from The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.[14]

2012

In September 2012, RMW along with China's Galloping Horse acquired post production assets from Digital Domain, a legendary Hollywood studio founded by James Cameron.[15]

2013

By 2013, Reliance MediaWorks expanded its business by teaming with a variety of production companies as equity investors. Hiring Academy Award winning George Murphy as the company's Chief Creative Officer in April 2013,[16] RMW signed multimillion-dollar deals with Ethyrea Films[17] and Random Cow.[18]

In August 2013 RMW signed director Vadim Perelman as their Creative Director in India.[19] The following month, the company tied up with Turner International India for post production services of its entertainment channels.[20]

2014

In 2014, Reliance Mediaworks and Prime Focus merged.[21]
