James Cameron

In his never-ending quest to make 3D ubiquitous, James Cameron's Cameron Pace Group is working on a new line of cameras that would broadcast both 2D and 3D simultaneously (hence: "5D").

Says Cameron in a video interview with Wired (found below), "3D [television] would be stillborn if you had to do a separate 3D production and a 2D production of the same event. It was never going to make sense - you had to have an integrated production."

James Cameron talks candidly to GigaOM about his well-publicized quest to make 3D the standard for Hollywood. He says, "People thought I was building this for myself and it wasn’t really available. I was like, ‘No, no, no. We’re building this industry – it doesn’t help me to make a 3D film if there are no 3D theaters.’

James Cameron's shooting style on Titanic was "favorable to [3D] conversion" according to The New York Times who explains some of the details of Cameron's $18-million-dollar, one-year project to convert his 1997 blockbuster to 3D. Titanic will be back in theaters (and in 3D) this Friday. Read more here.
