Avatar Day
Well, last night James Cameron gave people all around the world a free 15 minute preview of his new epic film Avatar (to be released in December).
The details of this film are pretty amazing... Cameron has basically invented a new technique ("emotion capture") allowing a real-time virtual world. Basically it's live CGI!
Literally... he can change the angles of the camera and move around a digital environment that would normally be added in post-production! I think this is unreal!!
Also, it's essentially a 3D film - but not like the old 3D that we have all seen before - it's been shot on the new Fusion Digital 3D camera (which Cameron co-invented). So, apparently, it's supposed to literally bring the screen alive...
The screenings were last night, and overall the reports seem to be positive. There was a screening at the Sydney Imax... I wish I could've gone!
