Welcome to Infected Media, the portfolio site of Steven Seybold, Art Director and Designer.
Well, I finally got out and saw Avatar last night in digital 3D. I had put it off for numerous reasons but am so happy that I finally got out and experienced what everyone else has been talking about. Just like you have heard, the acting and script are nothing to gush over but the visual experience is one I won't forget about anytime soon.
The new 3D is not the old 3D that I was expecting. Long gone are the days when you would have to view a whole movie with cardboard glasses, one lens blue and one red. Technology has come a long way and what you see up on the screen is truly hard to believe. It isn't so much that characters and items come flying at you causing you to duck in fear of getting hit so much as it give a rich, deep depth that I have never seen before.
In one sentence, just go see it... and if you do, go see it in 3D. There is truly no other way to see it now that I have seen what is possible.
