We at AMAZING 3D POST want to help make sure that all filmmakers have access to Stereoscopic 3D Post. We believe that 3D will be as ubiquitous in a few years as sound. It certainly won’t be confined to action and science fiction. Just the dynamics of the human face have an alluring fascination when viewed in 3D. 3D brings intimacy to any scene. Any character-driven story is enhanced by 3D, as long as the filmmaker knows how to use it. That’s why giving new directors, and directors new to 3D, an opportunity to work in 3D is so important. New skills and mindsets need to be developed to take advantage of this exciting “new” tool.
