Australians will get exclusive insights into James Cameron’s already announced deep sea sub adventures via a dedicated video blog.
James Cameron has long been a filmmaker who embraced the latest technologies, but his newest toy, the Deepsea Challenger, is a submarine that’s capable of diving to the deepest part of the ocean, also known as the Challenger Deep.
Hey film producers: the awesome 3D tech built by the Cameron Pace Group (CPG) for films like Avatar is heading to Oz. Says the director, “3D is the future for both film and broadcasting. We are very excited about enabling more world-class 3D productions in Australia.”
James Cameron loves 3D a whole lot, and he’s still passionately pushing for cinemas to adopt 60 frame per second projection, arguing it’ll make for better 3D.
First it was digital projection. Then 3D. And now James Cameron has set his sites on a more subtle – but possibly more important – innovation in film: frame rates. While the industry has been stuck at 24fps since the Roaring ’20s, Cameron believes that by bumping that up to 48fps, or even 60fps, Hollywood can dramatically change our cinematic experience.
Microsoft gave a sneak preview of its latest Natural User Interface (NUI) research recently at their Seattle offices, giving lucky observers a good look at just how far 3D Avatar capture and model rendering has progressed in the last few years.
