Boyd Shermis, Academy Award^©-nominated Visual Effects Supervisor on the film, put eyeon’s Fusion to task on this visually stunning effects film. “Another movie coming out wherein I used my Fusion toolbox to temp, analyze, scrutinize, format, and reformat a million images, all in native stereo. Many thanks to my good friend Steve Roberts, of eyeon, and the good folks at Stereotech, who reformatted and remapped tons of footage.”

Soon to be released, eyeon Dimension^® is a supercomputing optical flow technology that has been developed to provide stereoscopic 3D studios with a highly-advanced S3D convergence, alignment, and disparity generation science.

“Journey 2 offered us a real world project where we could develop and test Dimension. Dealing with true stereo problems brought out the best in the team to meet the production’s deadline. Thanks to Journey 2, we now know that the new generation of ‘Fix it in Post’ stereo tooling is here.”
