So you want to know what it takes to shoot a movie in 3D?  You think 3D is simply a phase?  I’m sorry, but it’s here, it’s now, and it’s gonna stay.  Studios are dropping millions of dollars in the development of newer 3D cameras and here in this webisode of The Hobbit, Peter Jackson takes into the background and into the methodology of shooting The Hobbit in 3D.  If anyone knows anything about video format, I can just say these movies are being shot in 5K resolution at 48 frames per second in 3D.  Our new fancy 1080p machines are about 1K resolution, so there you have it.  Enjoy the episode and have a pint while you watch.
