TOKYO, Sept. 23 -- PRNewswire/ AsiaNet Warner Bros. Pictures offers exciting new footage from the highly anticipated November 2004 release, THE POLAR EXPRESS. The Academy Award-winning team of Tom Hanks and director Robert Zemeckis reunite for an inspiring adventure based on the beloved children's book by Chris Van Allsburg. When a doubting young boy takes an extraordinary train ride to the North Pole, he embarks on a journey of self-discovery that shows, the wonder of life never fades for those who believe. Sony Pictures Imageworks senior visual effects supervisors Ken Ralston, (five-time Oscar winner), and Jerome Chen, (2000 nominee), help bring this enchanting holiday story to life in full CG animation through Imageworks' next-generation motion capture process. Dubbed "performance capture," this innovative technique allows the actors' live-action performances to drive the emotions and movements of the digital characters. www.polarexpressmovie.com / AOL Keyword: Polar Express/The Polar Express The Polar Express will be released domestically November 10, 2004 SATELLITE INFORMATION EUROPE Feed #1 23rd September 2004 Time: 9:00 PM -- 9:15 PM London Local (2000-2015 GMT) Feed #2 24th September 2004 Time: 6:00 AM -- 6:15 AM London Local (0500-0515 GMT) Satellite: Eutelsat W2 Downlink: 11675.625 Vertical Symbol Rate: 5.632 FEC: 3/4 Colour: PAL NTL Uplink trouble#: +44.(0) 1962.823000 PAC trouble#: +44.207.702.1427 Also available at BT Tower on PACTV's Facility Line ABQ H3 ASIA PACIFIC Feed # 1 24th September 2004 Time: 5:00AM -- 5:15AM Tokyo Local (2000-2015 GMT September 23rd) Feed # 2 24th September 2004 Time: 10:00AM -- 10:15AM Tokyo Local (0100-0115 GMT) Satellite: Intelsat 180 Satellite Transponder: 21/11 Downlink: 3769 Polarity: RHCP FEC: 7/8 Symbol Rate: 20.0 IRD Channel: FOUR Color: NTSC Trouble#: 1.310.287.3800 Also available at PACTV POOL circuit LA Switch.
