The Barrandov Studios Dubbing Department can now boast of an entirely modernized studio. The reconstruction of the original Studio 4 came to almost two million crowns and marks the start of a new era for Barrandov's dubbing services. Modernization of the studio will allow processing speed at the highest possible level of quality. The department will thus be able to hold its own within the ever-increasing competitiveness of the dubbing services market while still ensuring that the traditional quality of the Barrandov trademark is maintained.
