CineGrid at Rio - September 15, 2011
"CineGrid Rio" was sponsored by CineGrid members in Brazil including RNP, MacKenzie University, and CPQD. Aimed at the digital film community, the CineGrid @ Rio event featured the latest technologies in video streams of super-high-definition (4k - 3-D) through networks. This activity was broadcast live over the Internet.
Special Presentation:
StereoEssays / Five or six stereoscopic essays in search of a narrative (15 mins, 4k/3d)
The short 3D/4K film is part of a research project developed by the Advanced Applications of Remote Visualization Working Group supported by the RNP (National Education and Research Network). This Working Group’s proposal is the execution, production, organization and cataloging of the creative process of audiovisual content in 4K 3D format (image with minimum resolution of 4096 × 2160 pixels). Thus, a test-film was produced with Red Epic cameras, capable of capturing 5K images, rigged to obtain stereoscopic images. The fim called StereoEssays / Five or six stereoscopic essays in search of a narrative will be presented at Cinegrid@Rio (9/15). It is a high-tech audiovisual essay that explores ultra-definition images. As in the legendary Views of the Guanabara Bay (1898), considered the first Brazilian movie, made by the Segreto brothers, Rio de Janeiro is once again the focus of pioneering cameras. The difference now is that the “views” can be observed in three dimensions and ultra-high definition.
