These days when people talk about 3D they are usually talking about computer animation. That kind of 3D makes Shrek walk and talk and allows King Kong to realistically scale the Empire State Building. 3D computer graphics are seen everywhere from television commercials to feature films. However, if you’re looking for the palpable thrill of images that fly off the screen and into your lap, then stereoscopic 3D is what you are after. For audiences of all ages, all around the world, nothing beats the thrill of an actual stereoscopic 3D movie. Stereoscopic imaging has been a major fascination for viewers and photographers since the earliest days of photography. But the word “stereoscopic” confuses some people. What does it mean? It refers to seeing with two eyes. It is a fancy way to describe the eye popping, drop your popcorn, fly in your face scenes typical of 3D movies. For some this brings to mind the image of rooms filled with people wearing silly red and blue glasses circa 1953. In sharp contrast, today's technology offers high-tech VR head-mounted displays, fast DLP projectors and glasses that contain liquid crystal shutters. Digital video and High Definition TV bring us to a new era in the evolution of this fantastic medium. This is the kind of 3D imagery that 21st Century 3D does best. Our specialty is combining live action 3D with computer-generated (CG) 3D. Stereoscopic entertainment offers the most compelling viewing experience available, and 21st Century 3D is at the cutting edge of this rapidly advancing medium. |
