IMAX 3D: THE MOVIES

An IMAX movie about the movies?

Yep. You heard right. But it’s not just about movies – it’s a really a film about the history of visual storytelling — and what it’s future might hold. Movies are the storytelling instrument of this era. Going to a movie can offer a myriad of experiences: from entertainment to education and even enlightenment.

This film will feel more akin to a ride than a traditional movie. It’s much more than just an illustrated history lesson. It’s an experience that unlocks the magic of the movies in a way that is captivating for people of all cultures while keeping the experience entertaining.

Not only will it feature striking special effects, classic drama and incredible locations, it will also be paced quickly and be packed with humor – leaving the audience with an inspiring look behind the curtain on how movie magic actually happens. We will start by having a charismatic tour guide who will literally guide us through the story. The Tour Guide will engage audiences by breaking the third wall. This will allow us to easily travel through time, and illustrates the growth and development throughout the ages.

The basic structure of this 40-minute film is simple: each point that the story makes will consist of a short 3D visual anecdote or dramatization that illustrates the history and technique of the storytelling style we are exploring. The Tour Guide will setup, introduce and provide humorous post-commentary to each scene – helping viewers connect the dots.
