I did the 48 Hour Film Project again this year with Badger Tsunami creating “The Strange Game”.

I did most of the filming, the final editing, final mixing, and all of the special effects.
- Best Use of Line
- Best Special Effects!
- Best Sound Design
- Runner up for Best Film
The best special effects award was the only one I personally wanted. I only had to do 27 special effects shots this year on hand-held material to get it.
The Current 3D Film Fad
I came across a pretty interesting article the other day about why 3D movies give some people headaches and some of the technical issues with “faking out” your eyes and brain.
Article: Why 3D doesn’t work and never will. Case closed.
One of the biggest issues, as this article states, is the focus/convergence issue. When you focus on things, not only do each of your eyes lenses focus, but your eyes also converge and diverge (rotate toward and away from each other).
