[News/Art] 3D opera Film
Is there an audience for 3-D opera films? It's possible that both traditionalists and special-effects buffs might stay home, for different reasons. That's a shame, because Carmen in 3D, a joint production of Real D and the Royal Opera House, is genuinely entertaining, employing the special effect with restraint.
The filmmakers aren't out to provide eye candy, though there's some of that (the rose petals thrown at the toreadors, for instance, appear to swirl out into the audience). Their goal was to lend the depth and rounding of a live performance to a movie, and they've wisely erred on the conservative side in choosing how to employ the 3-D.
This is a solid but traditional production of a familiar piece, and it probably won't bring the cognoscente to their knees. Yes, Carmen is a warhorse, but with good reason, and it's much easier to roll your eyes about the choice of an accessible work if someone else is taking the financial risk.
This Carmen, staged last year in Covent Garden in London, is visually impressive, employing lots of earth tones (except for the scenes in the smugglers' camp) and giving much attention to detail — the crowd scenes for example, are full of lively business. The production was a grand-scale undertaking, as particularly evident in the big set pieces, including the entrance of the cigarette factory girls and the evening at Lillas Pastia's inn.
The large cast is nicely led by Christine Rice as the Gypsy temptress Carmen and Bryan Hymel as her hapless lover/victim, Don Jose, with admirable support from Maija Kovalevska as Don Jose's hometown flame Micaëla and Aris Argiris as the swaggering bullfighter Escamillo. The singing by these four impressed my untrained ears, and Rice is a forceful actress.
The opera was directed by Francesca Zambello, the film by Julian Napier. The production was designed by Tanya McCallin and the orchestra conducted by Constantin Carydis.
The 170-minute run time of Carmen in 3D includes a 20-minute intermission.

[Nwes/Tech] DIRECTV Lines Up More 3D Programming
EL SEGUNDO: The latest 3D additions to the DIRECTV lineup include the exclusive U.S. broadcast of the full-length 3D opera Donizetti's Lucrezia Borgia, along with several 3D Hollywood movies.
Donizetti's Lucrezia Borgia was directed by British filmmaker Mike Figgis (Leaving Las Vegas). It features one of opera's most notorious femme fatales in the title role, weaving together a tale of murder, torture and incest among of one history's first crime families. The 3D production of Lucrezia Borgia, a collaboration between Sky Arts and ENO, was filmed live on February 23 at the London Coliseum and will be available on DIRECTV CINEMA starting this April.
DIRECTV Cinema is also adding a variety of Hollywood movies in 3D. This includes Piranha 3D, Jackass 3D, Tangled 3D and Tron: Legacy 3D.
"We are constantly looking for ways to provide our 3D fans with the most compelling lineup of 3D programming available," said Derek Chang, the executive VP of content strategy and development at DIRECTV. "Mike Figgis' unique production of Donizetti's Lucrezia Borgia and Hollywood hits like Tangled and Tron: Legacy 3D are the perfect content to showcase 3D technology at its best."

[News/Movie] Star Wars: The Phantom Menace 3D' Gets A Release Date
George Lucas is preparing to add two whole dimensions to his paper thin snorefest Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace.
That's right, the pop culture pariah has decided to release his critically maligned and culturally abhorred prequel in 3D on February 12th, 2012. The only thing we like about this news is that 2-12-12 is a palindrome.
Here are some of the discouraging statements made by Hollywood Reporter in their story:
QUOTE: "LucasFilm believes that Star Wars is perfectly suited to be seen in 3D."
TRANSLATION: Re-releasing the films with an unnecessary mark up in ticket prices is a license to print money.
QUOTE: "Lucas hopes that releasing the film early in the year, outside of the summer blockbuster season, will give it an open run at the box office and also set up the opportunity to sell merchandise through the balance of the year."
TRANSLATION: We have a lot of leftover merchandise from The Phantom Menace that nobody bought, and re-releasing the film will set up the opportunity to get rid of our unwanted inventory without firing up the furnaces.
Also, Lucas? February is no longer the box office dead zone it was when you re-released the original trilogy back in the 1990's. You will not have an open run at the box office, unless the industry incorrectly surmises that a movie that nobody liked the first time and that audiences only saw because of its event status will somehow be a box office draw the second time, and decide not to compete with you. Doubtless that's why you're making this announcement a year in advance.
Hollywood, don't buy this crap. Go about your business as usual. You have no reason to be concerned.
If successful, the 3D re-release of Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace" will pave the way for each subsequent Star Wars movie to be released in 3D every following year. Meaning that even if you just want to see the original trilogy in theaters again, you'll not only have to wait five years, but you'll actually have to buy tickets to the crappy movies beforehand. Oh goody, what incentive.
Seriously, we think there needs be a variation on Godwin's Law which states that as any conversation grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving the crappiness of the Star Wars sequels, particularly The Phantom Menace, approaches 1.
Crave Online will be back with more Phantom Menace news as it makes no sense whatsoever and crushes our souls in a trash compactor.

[News/Beauty] Perfect Makeup Everytime
- Technology that takes a 3D image of your face and measures your complexion, shadows and lines could help you with your makeup.
- The computer can also tell you if your tried-and-tested make-up combinations are actually right for your face.
- The system can also be modified to provide cosmetics advice in different situations.
Ever wish you had your own personal makeup artist? That dream could soon be a reality with a computer that scans your face and suggests the perfect personalized makeup combination.
The technology, showcased at CeBIT, the world's biggest high-tech fair, takes a 3D image of your face and measures your complexion, shadows and lines.
Specially designed computer software then matches your face to 60 pre-programmed models and advises how much makeup should be applied to which parts of your face based on professional make-overs conducted on the models.
The computer can also tell you if your tried-and-tested makeup combinations are actually right for your face, explained Kristina Scherbaum, who developed the program at the prestigious Max Planck Institute.
"We also take into consideration certain personal facial characteristics, like freckles or moles. Furthermore, we can determine whether or not already existing makeup on a woman suits her face," she added.
The software, currently only available for women, is at the research stage at the moment but could easily be adapted for commercial use, said Himangsho Saikia, who designed the interface system.
"Professional makeup is expensive but with this, you could turn on your computer in the morning, use a web-cam and have your make-up done for you," he said.
The system can also be modified to provide cosmetics advice in different situations, such as jazzy make-up for an evening party or more sober for work.
CeBIT is showcasing the latest technology and gadgets from some 4,200 exhibitors and hopes to attract around 350,000 visitors. It runs until March 5.
[News/Tech] Soon, 3D TV without goggles
High-quality video communications capable of supporting flawless video conferencing and home entertainment without goggles could become a reality soon.
The find was a result of research led by Professor Lajos Hanzo, Head of the Communications Research Group in the School of Electronics and Computer Science.
Professor Hanzo and his team are working on systems to support flawless Tele-presence with the aid of three-dimensional (3D) ‘Avatar-style’ stereoscopic video and audio communications. The process involves the conception of stereoscopic video systems that can stream footage in real time to a recipient over wireless networks.
The team at Southampton has recently made substantial investments in 3D cameras and displays as well as in holographic visualization facilities in support of these radical research goals.
“Existing 3D video systems are based on people wearing goggles to view them,” said Professor Hanzo. “Our system is expected to become more ‘immersive’ by dispensing with the inconvenience of wearing goggles.” Part of this process involves the conception of stereoscopic video systems that can stream footage in real time to a recipient over wireless networks.” The other radical objective of the Tele-presence research at Southampton is to conceive more ‘green’ wireless systems, requiring less energy than existing systems.
“The first stage is to conceive flawless, immersive video conferencing concepts and then to transfer the design principles to shirt— pocket— sized compact mobile devices, such as camera—phones, within the next decade,” said Professor Hanzo.
“At the moment, flawless video conferencing is not widespread, since the quality is not up to scratch. We are working to ensure that video is transmitted without errors and we are developing ‘green’ techniques to ensure that less energy is used.” The researchers claim that they are the first group to work on the wireless transmission of holographic video.
They will also popularize these techniques within the framework of their Indian and Chinese research consortia conducting research towards the next generation of wireless systems.
