“3D will not save a bad movie”

Exactly:

One of the overriding topics of this year’s 3D Stereo MEDIA is how bad 3D is hurting the industry, yet for Comisky, it’s all about the context and the target audience, citing the success of 3D horror films. “I know what bad 3D is when it comes to doing a quality picture but then there are different genres,” noted Comisky.

Directors, producers and crews that seek excellence in the entire process are the ones that will be successful. No different than the 2D world!

3D isn’t awful – its the bad 3D that’s awful!

I went searching through Youtube this evening for 3D content and found plenty of it – and plenty of it was basically awful!

Badly misaligned left and right eye views, edge violations, poor quality 2D-to-3D conversions. Not the sort of quality that will encourage others to enjoy 3D.

It is good to see people trying to do 3D – but it will take time for new enthusiasts to learn how to shoot and process 3D correctly. As 3D hobbyists ourselves, we need to help teach others how to create good quality 3D.

Global live 3D broadcast via Internet demo’d in November

I think 3D will take hold on the Internet before broadcast 3D really gets underway:

Taking place between November 26th-30th, thousands of Internet viewers all over the world saw the best Russian and Vietnamese surfing athletes performing long board and short board styles in Vung Tau, Vietnam. What was unique was that, for the first time, viewers could watch the event in 2D, 3D and even 3D without glasses.
