James Steven Beverly Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I saw this on the Konvas forum and thought it was interesting. Anyone know anything about this system ans why it was never pursued as a mainstream cinema format and also are there any other similar stories for large scale failed cinema formats? Stumbled across this film. Ordered the blu-ray. Apparently the only film shot with the "Cinemiracle" three camera system. The whole thing fascinates me. Was wondering if anyone in the group could elaborate on the process. I read that Jack Warner wanted to use this for other productions, but they fell through. Was also curious about something with this process. The wikipedia page says: The three Eastman Kodak 27 millimeter lenses were electronically controlled-and shifted their optical centers depending on the focus. Seems like a very good start for a superior 3D capture and projection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member David Mullen ASC Posted February 16, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted February 16, 2014 You can read about Cinemiracle here: http://www.widescreenmuseum.com/widescreen/wingcm1.htm Quality-wise, it was basically a variation of Cinerama, three 6-perf 35mm frames side-by-side.
