See the work that is being done in Digital Cinema and 3D and join Marty Shindler and his distinguished panelists as they discuss the changes that have occurred in the marketplace and how digital cinema and 3D stereo may offer new opportunities in the entertainment business. Such industry luminaries as Jim Cameron, Robert Zemeckis and Robert Rodriguez have produced 3D films. George Lucas and Peter Jackson have embraced 3D films for future releases. Digital Cinema and 3D stereo may cause fundamental changes in the way content is produced and distributed. Through the use of digital cinema, 3D stereo may cause people to return to the theaters with different and compelling content. These new technologies offer new opportunities to LA SIGGRAPH members.
