My first 3D movie

Sat, 10 Dec 2005 16:00:28 GMT

Lastnight, I went to see my first iMAX 3D movie (the movie was Adventures in Animation 3D). The whole experience was cool, close to realistic at some point. The movie was about how 3D animations are built, it explains the process of creating the characters, animating them, and of course dressing them. It also presents a short "entertaining" funny movie about a boxer's first fight.

It also brought the question of whether animated actors will at some point replace real human actors? For me, some movies need to be done by real people, especially if they have a story with a deep meaning; but I wouldn't mind seing an animated comedy. What do you think?

It was better than I expected, didn't think it would be this much fun.

If you get a chance, go and see it.

Peace,
