3D Movies and Sunglasses

The South African community is abuzz with talk around 3D movies. It’s all quite something for our community and  now there’s even whispers about the possibility of watching a few world cup soccer matches in 3D. Of course, there are those who are so nonchalant about it all trying to create the impression that’s its been with us for the last 50 years, while others, “yea yea” to them, openly express excitement and even bumbling innocence. One such person who we will call “Lise” who is from Longkloof, South Africa, described her experience in a letter: “I decided to go and see Alice In Wonderland in 3D because I needed the relief of air conditioning during that very hot week. I was quite disappointed as the 3D thing didn’t work for me – probably because my eyes don’t focus in the middle, one eye sees far and the other close. The whole film was quite dark and fuzzy. Still, I thought, now I know I can’t do 3D. Next

Avatar Producer Says 3D Glasses Need to be Sexier

Avatar producer Jon Landau said, so long as people can get over the stupid glasses. “The potential of 3D gaming is greater than the potential of 3D films,” Landau said at the 3D gaming Summit in Los Angeles. Landau believes the advent of 3D gaming will offer designers new tools to expand on the level of experience and immersion their games allow. The issue that has stymied the flow of 3D is the glasses, forever ingrained in the public consciousness as cheap cardboard with blue and red lenses. For Landau, spreading 3D is about revitalizing this image and making it more attractive to the public. “People wear glasses now. People go to the beach and they wear glasses, and then don’t have a problem with it,” Landau said. “How do we stylize glasses? How do we make glasses that bring added value to the table? How do we make glasses with a USB port? Or that give additional content or access codes for a game?” Landau is definitely on to something.

3D Glasses And 3D Movies

Have you ever wondered how those large dark 3D glasses that you’re given at special events at movie theaters could make a flat screen bloom with three-dimensional images? Because the centers of our two eyes are spaced a few inches apart, the brain interprets the two different images it receives from each eye by overlaying them into one view. This gives us the ability to see in three dimensions even when the image presented is flat The development of the Polarized three-dimensional system of filming by American inventor Edwin Herbert Land made color 3-D movies a reality. Films made using this method are shot with two cameras or a special camera with two lenses. In the theater, the two films are projected simultaneously. A polarizing filter in front of the left projector lens orients random light waves into one plane, while a different filter in front of the right projector lens orients light waves into a perpendicular plane . Filmgoers wear glasses with gray polarizing lenses

Are 3D Glasses Bad For Your Health?

 funny thing happened on the way to the Vatican IMAX theater: Italy’s ministry of health confiscated 7000 pairs of 3D glasses from cinemas. And they pledge to snatch away more, claiming the glasses could easily pass around “hygiene risks” if not disinfected between screenings, and that they lacked tags proving they don’t cause vision problems. [caption id="attachment_197" align="alignleft" width="140" caption="3D glasses -www.glassesdress.com"][/caption] That this sweeping health initiative should come so soon after the announcement of a 3D remake of Caligula by veteran Italian softcore auteur Tinto Brass is indeed suspicious — it’s perhaps the type of action taken by a nervous government after a presentation from public health officials on mass forehead-herpes outbreaks. But according to a new study from the University of California Berkeley, the Italians might well be onto something when it comes to those vision issues. And that’s something Hollywood would love to
