NAB 2009 - 3D Stereoscopic Content and Technology showcase opportunity
Greetings to all interested 3D Content Producers, Distributors, Content Owners and
Technology Interests,
I want to make you aware of an upcoming 3D Stereoscopic Content and Technology showcase opportunity at the National Association of Broadcasters Convention.
NAB 2009 - 3D Content Theater and 3D Technology Showcase - APRIL 18 - 23 - Las Vegas
As in the past, NAB is building a highly attended temporary 3D content theater in order to showcase 3D content for the Theatrical, rapidly developing Home and Ancillary Markets.
In conjunction with NAB and Bob Sitrick, Executive Producer of the NAB Content Theater, I am reaching out to all international 3D content producers in order to showcase the efforts of their work (completed or In-Progress).
The 3D Content presented at the show would go thru a submission process with the Content Committee of course, but I would like to start the process of requesting samples of all types of work and interest level from producers, distributors and others.
Depending on the amount and genre of the content, we are interested in possibly wrapping different programs around the genres.
What we are looking to showcase are trailers or clips of recently produced and Stereoscopic 3D CG & Animation, Live Action Sports, Music, Drama, Documentary Content. All would be great to include as showcase potential.
RE: 3D Technology Zone for 3D Displays, Cameras and Personal Viewing Devices, Home Servers and other Stereoscopic Technology.
A 3D Display and Technology Zone is also being staged - A specific One-Stop technology exhibition area for new products that can be used in the rapid 3D enablement.
- 3D Camera Rigs to Post Production Equipment to Software to Home Servers and 3D Internet devices that Broadcasters, Studio Executives and Producers may or may not be aware of yet. The 3Dto

Odeon, Europe's largest cinema chain, has announced it is to equip the majority of its screens with 3D projectors.
The news comes after a deal was inked with NEC Display Solutions. The company's digital projectors have been extensively trialled for the last two years in Odeon's cinema in Hatfield, Hertfordshire.
"3D digital provides the total cinematic experience – you feel the drama literally unfolding all around you," said Drew Kaza, executive vice president of digital development at Odeon, about the news.
"We wanted the best for our 3D digital projection and so over the last two years we have vigorously put NEC's technology through its paces. It definitely hit the mark with superb image quality and unsurpassed reliability. NEC has equipped Odeon with a ground-breaking digital cinema projection system and we anticipate a resultant jump in per seat revenues."
2009: the year of 3D
The projectors that are being installed are the NEC NC1600C. This is an integrated DLP projector that offers 17,000 Lumens and 2K (2048x1080) resolution.
Simon Jackson, vice president Northern Europe for NEC Display Solutions said about the deal: "This major European deployment with Odeon underpins our core principles of high reliability, performance and outstanding build quality."
2009 will be a busy year for 3D, with movies such as Disney's Bolt, Monsters Vs Aliens and, of course, James Cameron's Avatar due before the year is out.
