The day was split into two sessions, with the morning devoted to a press conference where more than 150 journalists were introduced to the next generation CINEMA 3D TVs. In the evening, more than 3,500 invited guests were given entry into the park to enjoy the attractions and experience CINEMA 3D for themselves.
The morning press event saw media representatives from across the Middle East and Africa descend on Ferrari World for the CINEMA 3D unveiling. As a demonstrative tool, the journalists were encouraged to compare CINEMA 3D displays with existing technologies in side-by-side comparison zones that focused on both visual strengths as well as content management.

>3D Joins Cream of Indie Film-making Talent at Tribeca Festival
>
Some 5,600 films and documentaries from more than 40 countries were on show at the New York event. Star turns included Cameron Crowe with “The Union,” his first film in six years, and Will Ferrell, who lent his comedic talents to the low-budget comedy “Everything Must Go
Just as exciting, however, was the vast selection of films from lesser-known talents, including productions from South Africa, Norway and across the United States that tackled everything from avant-garde poets to children with photographic memories.
Eager to help foster the adventurous talents of tomorrow, LG provided students from the Tribeca Flashpoint Media Arts Academy, in Chicago, with equipment and technical support to help them produce a series of shorts with the company’s latest 3D technology, CINEMA 3D. The films also debuted at this year’s festival, on a series of CINEMA 3D TVs and Blu-ray™ players in venues throughout lower Manhattan.
“As a student it’s important to be able to learn how to shoot 3D, how to edit 3D, how to master 3D, because it’s the way of the future,” said Stephen Fletcher, a student at the academy.
Of note among the submitted films, “The Flying Wallendas Highwire Family,” turned heads by successfully capturing the tension of live high wire performances in the 3D format. Viewers also enjoyed an animated short, “The Universe of 3D,” which showed how LG’s 2D logo could be transformed into a compelling visual experience.

By providing students with the skills they need to create 3D films of their own, the joint project with Tribeca is also aiming to push creation of the kind of inventive, daring content that can make 3D such a thrilling medium for home entertainment.
“We hope that our alliance with Tribeca and the Tribeca Flashpoint Academy will inspire more young filmmakers to create 3D content for consumers to enjoy,” said John Weinstock, Vice President of Marketing for LG. “The 3D films created by these students already capture the exciting possibilities of the 3D experience.”
At the ripe old age of 10, the Tribeca Festival has matured into one of the leading outlets for creative, leftfield filmmaking in the United States. As 3D moves from the creative fringes to the mainstream, it’s thrilling to know that some of the cream of the country’s cinematic talent will be fulfilling De Niro’s vision, and discovering just how powerful 3D can be.

>CINEMA 3D Makes Record-Breaking Arrival in Europe

In keeping with the theatrical atmosphere, we hired Isabelle Giordano, a prominent move critic, to host the show, and invited along actor Sophie Marceau, director Claude Lelouch, and a host of other top French celebrities. There were turns from French magician Dani Lary and Brazilian dance troupe Brasilian Ambience. And, of course, we screened the 3D animation blockbuster RIO, which had opened just a few weeks prior to the event.
With just two hours remaining in which to fix it, the technical staff went for lunch for a little over an hour. But when they came back, with 30 minutes to spare, they promptly fixed the equipment right up, and it worked perfectly. Among many other things, we learned that the French style of doing things – though very different from ours in Korea! – can work wonders.
>See the Difference: LG CINEMA 3D TVs versus Conventional 3D TVs
>
LG CINEMA 3D TV is grabbing the attention of not only early adopters but media and general consumers as well with its significantly upgraded technology. Conventional 3D TVs can’t even compare. LG CINEMA 3D TV takes 3D technology one step further with a technology called Film-typed Patterned Retarder, or FPR. This technology delivers more natural and vibrant 3D images by applying the closest possible method of how we actually perceive three-dimensional effects. LG CINEMA 3D technology is successfully moving away from conventional 3D, bringing forward the next generation in 3D TV viewing.

3D technology as we all know is certainly not new in the market but what stands out between our 3D Television in comparison to our competitors are some of the following key features:
- More Comfortable for your Eyes
No more dizziness, nausea, or discomfort. LG’s CINEMA 3D technology eliminates flickering shutters from the glasses, allowing you to freely indulge in 3D images for an extended time without dizziness or weariness. While our advanced CINEMA 3D glasses eliminate flickering images, our Next Generation 3D panel provides clearer, blur- free images. - Comfortable Cinema 3D Glasses (even for kids)
LG’s CINEMA 3D glasses weigh only 16 grams – almost half the weight of conventional 3D glasses. Unlike conventional 3D glasses, you don’t have to worry about recharging your glasses. As LG’s CINEMA 3D glasses are battery-free, there are no harmful electromagnetic waves generated. Avoid the high cost of conventional 3D glasses, LG’s CINEMA 3D glasses are very affordable, so you can buy as many as you need to enjoy the 3D experience with family and friends.
- Brilliant 3D Pictures Quality
Up to two times brighter than conventional 3D TVs. The LG CINEMA 3D TV produces brighter and clearer pictures by bringing the best out of the backlight units. - Flexible Viewing Angle
LG’s CINEMA 3D give you the freedom to enjoy consistently clear and bright 3D pictures in any position. Unlike conventional 3D TV’s, LG’s CINEMA 3D enables you to lie down or lean back without any image blackout.
In order to put the theory to test, we set up a Cinema 3D comparison booth whereby consumers can experience the 3D Technology for themselves. Both the TV sets were sealed so that consumers won’t be able to tell the difference. Then after, consumers who have tested both the TV were required to fill out a short survey indicating which TV is better in terms of its features.

In total, there were 340 survey forms filled out by consumers and 82% said that LG 3D Cinema TV is better. Questions asked were:
1. Which TV is FLICKER FREE?
100% answered TV B, which is LG’s 3D Cinema TV
2. Which 3D glasses are more lighter and comfortable?
100% answered TV B, which is LG’s 3D Cinema TV
3. Which 3D TV Image is brighter and clearer?
5% answered TV A, which is our competitor’s 3D TV, while 95% answered TV B, which is LG’s 3D Cinema TV
