Hollywood is looking for a "hook" for the Movie theater experience that the home theater can't easily reproduce to keep people coming in. One strategy is Stereographics (3D, think 3D glasses like in the 50's, but much better visual technology).
Blue Sky ("Ice Age", "Robots", "Ice Age: the Meltdown", "Horton Hears a Who") will release a new feature soon, "Ice Age: The Dawn of the Dinosaurs", that was planned from the beginning for Stereographic showing in the movie theater. Jayme Wilkinson is the Supervisor in charge of that pre-planning at Blue Sky. When you use Stereographics, there are many problems that the production process hasn't had to wrestle with yet. Problems like the limitations of CG cameras, rendering proper camera animation, human factors of the audience, limists of movie theater projector technologies, cost-benefit tradeoffs on equipment in the theater,and how to use these for art.
