Panorama in video

This could probably the next BIG in movie entertainment after 3D magic of  AVTAR. Check out this video to get an idea of what I'm talking about. Yellow birds don't have wings but they fly to make you experience a 3D reality.....relax that is the name of the camera which made this video possible.

Imagine the possibilities it might open for entertainment. Consider a scene where a guy and a girl is talking. Instead of an usual over the shoulder shot of the guy which you normally see today, you might be able to to just turn your view and keep looking at that hot girl he is talking to ! (Though this is unlikely to happen in the near future since the cinema halls have to keep up with this development.) It feels like you are literally in the movie, in between the actors ! That could really change the perspective writing a screenplay, nay the very basics of story narration ! Whew !

At this point of my movie career :-P, all I can do is pass the word to one tech-savy crew in India which might probably show interest, yes, it is Mr. Shankar. I scrapped one of his cameramen who happens to be my friend, hope it gets some attention.

Kosuru news : Enthiran is getting ready in 3D !!
