International Cinema Festival of India

When 3D film originally debuted nearly 60 years ago it was an instant pop culture hit. In fact, in the 1950′s it was a surprisingly popular form of film presentation, though it was very expensive to produce at the time. During this point in history most of these films were cheap campy films, where most of the budget went into making them special in order to draw in crowds, these were not cinematic masterpieces by any stretch of the imagination. Eventually the astronomical cost of producing the underdeveloped 3D films of the time began to be too much for most studios. Since the industry wasn’t getting what it hoped for out of these films, they slowly faded into darkness.

Suddenly, around 1980 the 3D film started to pop up again. By the time the 80s rolled around B-movies were a big hit and pop culture was once again intrigued by the third dimension. Though it was still quite expensive studios brought 3D back to life. Again, the 3D film reintroduced an intriguing form of entertainment, which has continued to grow with unprecedented success.

With a bit of time technology seems to advance tenfold, and this was the very case with 3D film. Just after the turn of the century studios worked to develop a method of producing 3D movies that was not only more effective but more affordable, too. The proudest success story of the twenty-first century came with 2009′s out-of-this-world success, Avatar. 3D was still just considered a fun way to enjoy a movie, but the entire family started paying attention once James Cameron’s Avatar hit the cinema. Near the same time production started on 3D televisions so we could bring the technology home with us.

Though this kind of film production has been in existence for over five decades, the science that goes into it has been expanding for over a hundred years. A savvy film maker of the 1890′s named William Friese-Greene first thought of a way to create this type of film experience. The 3D film of the early twentieth century can not even compare to the masterpieces that are coming out today. Furthermore, the new 3D televisions that are being released are deeply evolved, not even requiring special glasses to achieve the holographic effect.

The 3D trend seems to be here for good this time around with many major movies such as Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows movie, Scott Pilgrim vs The World, and Tron Legacy being shown in 3D. The reborn fad of 3D film is expected to continue to develop into more and more realistic film experiences for movie goers as time goes on.
