Into Film Festivals - Gravity 3D

Wednesday 12th November 2014

Today our AS Media Studies class went to the Odeon cinema by Covent Garden to watch Gravity in 3D. There was some of the Into Film Festival people there and also three people whom produce the 3D effects for films.
We viewed Gravity in 3D using 3D glasses on a cinema screen. (It is better to view 3D on a large screen because we can clearly see the whole of the 3D action).
We viewed it in the Odeon cinema, which is a large chain of multiplexes. The first multiplex cinema to come to the UK was placed in Milton Keynes.
At the end of the film three people come in:

• Chris Parks, who is the founder and head stereographer at vision 3 (he worked on making the 3D for gravity).
• The second person was Richard Mills, he is the chief technology officer at Onsight Group.
• The third person was Karina Neill, she is the director of cinema at RealD Europe.

 

Chris parks was the most important out of the three speakers because he worked on Gravity.
Chris Parks spoke about 3D and his experience and how ever film he works on it helps him advance in making the 3D. He's been working in it for 20 years but with every film he develops the technology changes in ways and he can utilise them.
With this new technology, the production and post production staff work with script writers and directors.

In the last years in the uk the 3D audience has gone up by 5%, this means that the 3D movies are becoming more popular. This is very good for the movie industry as it tells them that 3D movies are becoming more popular which means more money will be spent to make a better movie but also they will get more profit from movies.
