3D Comfort and 3D Beauty: Why have to choose between them?

Robert Neuman, head of the Stereography Department at Walt Disney
Animation Studios, will share the secrets of creating great looking 3D
content that also happens to be extremely comfortable to watch. Although the twin goals of stereoscopic comfort and visual appeal often appear to be irreconcilable, making the story your first priority can help you to reach both goals. Robert will use examples from Disney’s recent blockbuster hit, Tangled to illustrate some of the techniques and aesthetic choices that were key to making the film a hit in 3D.

The philosophy at Disney Animation is not to compromise on 3D quality.
Robert’s lecture will also offer a brief glimpse into the process of
making The Lion King 3D that will demonstrate how their approach to 3D comfort and beauty can extend to converted content as well. This
approach has enabled the newly released stereoscopic adaptation of their hand drawn masterpiece to achieve 3D results worthy of a timeless classic.
