3D, once thought of as a novelty for showing kids animations including Polar Express and Ice Age, is finding a bigger and more diverse market.
Recently, a live performance of opera Don Giovani, was satellite broadcast in 3D, to audiences in five cinemas in Paris, Avignon and Brest. Through 3D glasses, probably not the opera kind, audiences could experience the show as if they were actually at the theatre – well nearly. I wonder if they were suitably dressed?
Meanwhile, in Copenhagen, 3D and a 24 metre curved screen is giving a breathtaking view of the universe at the Tycho Brahe Planetarium.
And in London, BAFTA, has gone 3D in its 220 seater, where it will be issuing re-usable 3D glasses, so as to, ‘continue its mission to be environmentally friendly’.
But will they be showing My Bloody Valentine?
