How Does 3D Work?
3D movies are all the rage right now – especially since Avatar has come on the scene. Last year, Gold Rush Entertainment with Eric Gozlan made a remake of Jack London’s story, Call of the Wild. They did so in 3D. So, what exactly is 3D and how is it created?
3D stands for 3 dimensions or 3 dimensional and it refers to something that has width, height and depth. Usually, films only have width and height, but they do not have depth. Basically, when a film is in 3D, the film is tricking the brain to perceive depth when there isn’t any. The scene offers the eyes two views to make it think that there is depth.
Believe it or not, the use of 3D has actually been in use since 1922, when “The Power of Love” was made.
