    CN Tower Makes Waves with 3D Theatre Premiere on Canada Day

    CN Tower Makes Waves with 3D Theatre Premiere on Canada Day June 30, 2010 (Toronto, ON) Premiering Canada Day, July 1 st , the CN Tower will launch a new 3D theatre experience featuring The Ultimate Wave Tahiti 3D, the Toronto premiere of the first 3D surf film ever created. “We are always looking at innovative ways to make the CN Tower experience more exciting and our state of the art high definition 3D theatre featuring a spectacular film about surfing in Tahiti will be an exciting new addition to the lineup of thrilling experiences that we offer,” said Jack Robinson, Chief Operating Officer. Visitors will be able to experience the phenomenon of new, improved 3D at the CN Tower’s new state of the art high definition theatre featuring The Ultimate Wave Tahiti 3D . The Ultimate Wave Tahiti 3D is a 45 minute film created by Canada’s own Stephen Low Productions. Audiences are immersed into the stunning beauty of an island paradise on a quest to find the perfect wave-riding experience. The film follows nine-time world surfing champion Kelly Slater and Tahitian surfer Raimana Van Bastolaer as they seek out the best waves at Tahiti’s famed reef at Teahupo’o. As their quest unfolds, the audience is plunged beneath the surface of things, to explore the magic of Tahiti, the life of the reef and the hidden forces at work shaping ocean waves and the islands that lie in their path. Hailing from Montreal, Director Stephen Low is one of Canada’s most experienced filmmakers, bringing to his work a unique storytelling vision and an understanding of the language and tremendous possibilities of 3D cinema.

  • The Info-Immersive Modalities of Film Documentarian and Inventor Roman Kroitor

    The Info-Immersive Modalities of Film Documentarian and Inventor Roman Kroitor

    The Info-Immersive Modalities of Film Documentarian and Inventor Roman Kroitor by Graeme Hamish Langdon A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Information Faculty of Information University of Toronto © Copyright by Graeme Hamish Langdon 2012 The Info-Immersive Modalities of Film Documentarian and Inventor Roman Kroitor Graeme Hamish Langdon Master of Information Faculty of Information University of Toronto 2012 Abstract In this thesis, it is argued that Canadian film documentarian and inventor Roman Kroitor’s lifework is structured by simultaneous appeals to the realist and reflexive capacities of film and animation. It is shown that the diverse periods in Kroitor’s lifework (including documentary film production at the National Film Board of Canada; co-invention and development of the large-format film apparatus, IMAX; and software design for computer animation in stereoscopic 3D) are united by a general interest in facilitating immersive audience experiences with documentary information and evidentiary entertainment. Against those who have conceptualized cinema as functioning like a frame or a window, this thesis analyzes Kroitor’s diverse work in relation to Gene Youngblood’s conception of “expanded cinema” (1970). It is argued that Kroitor’s efforts in film and invention constitute modalities that actively eschew the architectonic limits that typically characterize the cinematic experience. ii Acknowledgments The realization of this thesis would not have been possible without the assistance I received from a number of people. First, I would like to thank my supervisor, Juris Dilevko, for his encouragement throughout the project. Second, I would like to thank my examining committee, David Harris Smith and Neil Narine, for their interest in the project and their insightful comments.
