I make documentary films and have envisioned everyone of them as an "if-only-could-be-in-3D. I've been enjoying everything in 3D. I watch on an LG 2D to 3D conversion TV. The conversion is better than one would think, though not perfect. Maybe 85 to 95%. One may argue endlessly about original artistic intent but I've been watching many, many films in 3D: La Dolce Vita, Baraka, The Matrix, and my own documentaries that often feature vast expansive landscapes. With my films instead of a desert comprised of a more or less flat white band at the bottom and blue band at the top, one gets a better feeling for the expanse of land and sky running from the foreground to the distant horizon. The more I watch 3D the more it simply becomes another part of the film experience. The bottom line is that many, many films look great in 3D. It's at least worth taking a look as I have, if only for the experimental experience. Now, how do I go about filming and showing my documentaries in 3D?
