3D Stereo MEDIA, 1-3 December 2009
Palais des congrès, Liège, Belgium
Invitation
PREVIEW – 17 March 2009 – Liège, Belgium
A true revolution is happening near you ... 3D stereo imaging!
You are ALL concerned: movie and TV industry, entertainment parks, media, communication agencies, artists, scientists and engineers, R&D labs, manufacturers, deciders, movie buffs, high-tech enthusiasts, and, obviously, the press.
To help you appreciate and anticipate as best as possible this revolution and take advantage of all opportunities of this wave, which is as much high-tech than it is artistic, the e-mage technology cluster of Liège, in collaboration with the University of Liège, has decided to organize a yearly event, called 3D Stereo MEDIA, totally dedicated to ALL facets of 3D stereo imaging, and thus unique in Europe.
Fostering the get-together and interaction of all players in 3D stereo imaging is natural since most of the biological, psychological, and technical principles, as well as much hardware and software, of 3D stereo, apply to many applications: not only cinema - which concerns us all - but also medical imaging, architecture, urbanism, cartography, remote sensing, vehicle simulators, aerospace, design, etc.
The 1st edition of 3D Stereo MEDIA will happen in Liège, Belgium, on 1-3 December 2009, featuring a 3D stereo film festival, a large array of conferences, an exhibition, and specialized training (e.g., stereographer).
To allow you to discover the details of the December event and to familiarize yourself with this new revolution, we invite you - imaging professionals and members of the press - to a PREVIEW on 17 March 2009.
In a single, fast-paced, entertaining afternoon, you will discover the know-how of well-known directors of 3D stereo movies (stay tuned for the scoops!), and of experts who will lift part of the veil on the secrets and magic of 3D stereo and on some of its many applications. In the evening, you will get an exclusive, commented pre-screening of a future 3D stereo blockbuster.
Finally, this event will bring to the fore the expertise and know-how of the belgian companies and artists of the third dimension, and will be an opportunity for belgian and foreign participants to establish many contacts.
We will be happy to welcome you in the historical city of Liège – in the heart of Europe - on 17 March 2009, for this PREVIEW, which will also lift the veil on the program of the 1st edition of 3D Stereo MEDIA.
Prof. Jacques G. Verly
