Cubism For CG And Movies

Aidtopia writes "Computer Graphics pioneer Andrew Glassner has a cool page on virtual cinema. The Matrix Reloaded introduced us to virtual cinema--re-rendering live action to show it in a way that would be difficult or impossible in real life. Glassner takes this much further by using unusual (and physically impossible) camera distortions, morphing multiple points of view simultaneously in single continuous image. Could this be the next big revolution in film? How long until we see a movie done like this?"

    For more than 20 years people talked about "Interactive TV". Interactive TV did not take off at all.

    What really became the way to go is The Internet.

    I feel that "virtual cinema" is going to repeat "Interactive TV".

    Shouldn't Aidtopia write instead, "Computer Graphics pioneer Andrew Glassner HAD a cool page on virtual cinema."
