Movies! I love movies! The new thing that I have seen recently is 3-D movies like Journey to the Center of the Earth. There was an article online that discussed the change from the movies in the 50's til today. The motion projectors, screens, and the glasses worn during the movies have drastically improved. It said it reduces the jitters which reduces the headaches which is definitely a good thing.
Vince Pace says, "there's the added challenge of making the filming process as invisible as possible to the actors." "In other words," he says, "the technology has to work: cinematographers can't be fiddling around with the camera when the action has started." I completely understand that there would be a problem if someone had to fix the camera in a live action movie, where missing little pieces could really hurt the film and cost twice the amount to make the film. Pace goes on the explain how to work two cameras to make the 3-D film. He said once the movie was shot, it was basically two movies, one for each eye, then combined with some adjustments.
Pace says that electrical noise is a problem too which I would have never thought of. He said that the main source of light on characters was headlamps which apparently sets off a lot of noise. Pace says that there were about six 3-D movies that came out. Next year there are supposed to be around 17! These are expensive movies but the industry wants them. "It's in a state of growth that's quite remarkable," Pace says.
