I’m really excited to announce that my award winning 3D short film  “FourPlay” is one of the 10 finalist films that will be included on a Sony 3D Blu-ray disc to be distributed free with Sony 3D enabled TV’s and Blu-ray players!

The Sony 3D World competition had submissions from across the globe including entries from as far afield as Japan to New Zealand, Canada and Mexico. The winning entries were decided by a judging panel including Buzz Hays, senior vice president of Sony’s 3D technology center in California, 3D film director Julian Napier, Lee Danskin, training and development director at Escape Studios, Sony Europe’s Richard Palk and members of the editorial team at Future Publishing’s 3D World magazine.

The prize, as well as being included on the 3D Blu-ray to be distributed to millions of potential viewers, includes as Sony Bravia LX900 3D TV for all of the top ten entrants, with the top three winning a matching BDV-F700 Blu-ray disc home cinema system.

The entry “FourPlay” was an updated version with most of the animations improved or in some cases completely replaced by new animations. The video was also converted to 24p and had to have all the audio re-sequenced in order to match the 24 frame rate. I will update the site when the full HD 1080p dual stream stereo version is available on the Sony 3D Blu-ray disc.

Thanks go out to Matt & Kevin for their help on the project; the organisers at 3D World and Sony; and last but not least the panel of judges!

In other exciting news our 3d music video for The Raw I’s song “Gloria (The Death of Me)” has now had over 7,500 views across the various 3d video channels and been featured in the press and in online blogs.

The style of the video was inspired by the hologram 1990’s arcade game “Time Traveller” and took over six months to complete. It is believed to be the first stereoscopic 3d music video to be made in Scotland. With the majority of post production work done in After Effects the stereoscopic workflow and mastering stereoscopic paralax was key to getting the video completed and receiving overwhelmingly positive feedback.

Channel 5’s The Gadget Show ran an interesting challenge this week – where Suzi Perry and Jason Bradbury competed to make the best cutting edge, immersive movie trailer using the latest tech.

While Jason made a crazy 360 degree horror trailer, Suzi’s approach was to film in 3D using two Canon EOS 550Ds mounted on a basic support converging the cameras. The result was surprisingly effective.

The 3D video “The Tech Spremacy” trailer can be viewed online at YouTube or for those of you with Nvidia 3D Vision Systems or suitable 3d TV’s there is a 720p 3D side by side download available from the Gadget Show website. Go Suzi!

Our new addition is a video we created a little while back based of Adam and Joe during their BBC Radio 6 broadcast discussing a 3D animation we sent to them, and a bit about 3D in general. One interesting note for 3D-philes is that Joe has been working on Steven Spielberg’s 3D adaptation of Tintin, so there’s a little extra relevance. (Note for non UK visitors Adam and Joe are a comedy duo who used to have a popular Saturday morning radio show).

The clip can be seen as always on our YouTube Channel or if you have a suitable 3D TV, Nivida 3D Vison PC or some other suitable 3d playback system you can download the side by side version for full colour HD playback and can see the video in it’s optimal quality.
