- Du-Art Film Laboratories, Inc. (DAFL) operates as a holding company focused on real estate management and shareholder distributions from its historic property in New York City. Originally founded in 1922 as a premier film processing and post-production laboratory by Al Young in Midtown Manhattan, the company pioneered technologies such as continuous 35mm processing machines, Eastmancolor negative processing, and the Academy Award-winning Frame-Count cueing system; it offered extensive media services including digital media production, video and sound engineering, film laboratory services for 8mm to 35mm formats, localization for animation clients like The Pokémon Company International, co-working spaces, 3D computer animation, audio post-production, compositing, DVD/Blu-ray authoring, editing equipment rentals, titling, and captioning for producers, distributors, Fortune 500 companies, and independent filmmakers primarily in the United States. Under Linda Young's leadership as President and CEO since 1998, DuArt transformed into DuArt Media Services, a digital media powerhouse, before ceasing media operations in 2021 to concentrate on its 12-story building at 245 West 55th Street, which it listed for sale at $38M after a century of ownership. Recent developments include a 2022 stock exchange of one voting common share and nine non-voting common shares for each outstanding share, along with a November 2024 declaration of a $3.13 per share distribution payable December 13, 2024, to shareholders of record as of December 2, 2024.
