I am interested in these from the point of view of the question as to what exactly 3D entails. Will there be a difference for screenwriters of 3D material as opposed to those writing for normal formats? Does 3D not just refer to how screenplays are viewed, rather than affecting how the play is written? I can understand that writing for a 3D screenplay might allow for different special effects from before, but I can't see it actually affecting how the story is written apart from this. Am I wrong?

I am also interested in how exactly the hyphen affects these domains (or any domains). According to some articles I've read, Google actually likes the hyphen when it considers ranking sites, because the bots find it easier to work out which are the words that make up the domain name. On the other hand, it's claimed that human beings prefer that there be no hyphens.

In the case of 3D, I find the issue even more puzzling. Sometimes I've seen it written as 3-D, which would mean that a hyphenated domain could be 3-DXXXX.com, or 3-D-XXXX.com, the latter having too many hyphens for my liking in terms of aesthetics (which I do realise may not interest most humans, let alone bots). On the other hand, I think that 3D followed by a hyphen makes sense, especially where without it a domain might be hard to interpret, for example, where the 'd' is followed by a vowel that might make it look like the first letter of a word different from that intended - 3da/3do/3di, and so on . Am I looking at this skew-ways?

MAllie, you think the same as I do and what you described is pretty much how I see it. If you cant have the 3DKeyword.com (thanks TheLegendaryJP lol) I prefer the 3D, then the hyphen, and then the keyword, it makes sense to me and as you said, it looks a lot better when the 3D is separated from the keyword to avoid any confusion

Vijaya & South..very.nice post.

Maille...I think "Souths" post a couple above...might have to do with how the actors and directors...did not understand how you have to shoot a 3D movie in a much different way...Just a guess...but does go to the points I make below...(as I have not seen any of the movies mention in "Souths"...post/link to story.

Remember...it took "James Camron" 2+ years to shoot "Avatar"..and my guess is he ran into a LOT of these problems...I mention below.



Hi Maille...
I think movie production company's, movie director's etc... will require "screenplays" to be written in a more elaborate & specific way...to save them time and money.

So screen writers are really going to have to learn many new tricks, techniques etc...when writing a screenplay that is to be shot in 3D.

Popularity of 3-D is affecting how screenplays are written
Some filmmakers fear the technology will eventually dictate which films are greenlighted.
http://articles.latimes.com/2010/apr/25/entertainment/la-ca-3ddirector-20100425

I do not know what I can add....

I think what is effected the most how the "screenplays" for 3d movies are written, has all to do with the different types of action and movements the director(s) and actor(s) can do....if you have to much 'wild movements' say or 'special effects" etc.....it can come off the screen to the audience in a very bad way.

Spacing of movements and actions is much much different...in order to make a good quality 3D movie etc...

Bottom line:

Studios and directors...do not want to spend endless hours rewriting everything, making endless changes, using much more time "shooting' a movie etc...you go 5 -10 -20 -30 days or more over your planned time...your movie budget can and will go "over budgeted" into the millions of dollars in most cases...

You want to pay "Tom Cruise" to be on your movie sets for even an extra 15 minutes....much less 10 -30 days or more?

Not to mention ALL the people besides actors working on and off set....it adds up fast.


So if the "screenplay" has already been written...knowing the movie is going to be shot in 3d...it will make it much better on everyone from the start.

Writing the same "screenplay" correctly for 3d...instead of your traditional 2d...... could save a studio so much time and money on just one movie...it really could add up into the Millions of dollars for one movie.

Just thinking while writing this this post...just gave me another idea...so: ( cost me almost $30.00...I HATE POSTING...seems like it always leads to at least one domain name registration..LOL)[/B]

__

This " Shelley DuVal" Is all over 3D ~ I was going to register: 3dchoreography .com..but she reg it in June.

I have noticed by a lot of the 3d domains I have tried to reg...her name sure pops up a lot....she has some really good ones IMHO.

So I just ended up with:


3dchoreographers .com
3dchoreographer.com
3dmoviechoreography.com

----

Available at Reg
~ PLEASE....always check my spelling

choreography3d .com
3dmoviechoreographers .com
3dmoviechoreographer .com
3dfilmchoreography .com
3dfilmchoreographer .com
3dfilmchoreographers .com


Anyway...this is and has been the BEST Domain Name Thread ON DNforum For MONTHS!'


So Thanks Very MUCH To EVERYONE!.... For All The Great: post - ideas - links - ETC....

IMHO as Always...lol


KEEP them coming!

Best To ALL,
'Dan

BTW:
Please take ALL my post on "3D"....with a "grain of salt"... AS I have NEVER seen anything in "3D" yet!

I take your point, but I still don't agree with it. Some movies are available in both 3D and normal format. Do these use different screenplays? I'd be surprised if they did, for it would hardly be cost-effective and would require different directions.

For me the issue can be compared with screenplays for black-and-white and colour movies. Apart from the fact that the storytelling style in the time of the b&w format was more old-fashioned (because of the time, naturally), screenwriters didn't have to write differently for the colour movies. The difference was all in the direction, making use of the more striking backdrops possible with colour, etc. I can't see how, for example, showing a tiger in 3D affects the screenwriter's story about a man-eating one, even though the 3D effect is to possibly make the animal more fearsome-looking and to give viewers the sensation that they are really there in the picture with it. From what I've read of directors, they like the screenwriter to be just that and - apart from necessary story details like time of day, noises in background to which characters respond, someone opening a window to shout out through it - to let them get on with directing the movie.

Will they be worth more or less than their reg fee? - like most everything, only time will tell...but I have a feeling I will at least 'break even'.
BTW: Please take ALL my post on "3D"....with a "grain of salt"... AS I have NEVER seen anything in "3D" yet!

This is NOT the only 3D point(s) of interest for me....I have maybe 15 domains about this subject...not too worried if my thinking is totally flawed on this aspect of the 3D industry...it has happen before.

This subject ranks down a few pegs from other aspects of 3D.... I view with much more interest...as they might relate to good 3d domain name(s)

So...I will just leave it at that.

Thanks much for your well thought out reply(s) on this subject....

Best,
Dan

Nice fine ...gilescoley


Looks like it has great "content feed(s)"... but also has "youtube" videos in the some perfect spots also

Very well put together and very nice looking.

Definitively a "Word Press" blog platform

I wonder what "plug-ins" etc...he is using and what he is using for all the great for the content and images?

Thanks for the post.

Best,
Dan

You're welcome

Here a couple more sites with some good info, you may already know about them

www.3d-forums.com
www.3dradar.techradar.com/

For all the 3D gamers and domain investors, an interesting article

Talking stereoscopic 3D with Mick Hocking

The man in charge of 3D games development at Sony Computer Entertainment Europe discusses this amazing new technology with eu.playstation.com.

Why is the team at Evolution Studios best suited to 3D development?
We at Evolution have been messing around with 3D for about five years. What’s more, I employ two guys who were previously at British Aerospace, Ian Bickerstaff and Simon Benson, and they’ve been working on 3D for 16 years, building flight and F1 simulators. So we were pushing the technology before SCEE even started talking about making games in 3D. It was a nice coincidence that we were doing a bit of prototyping on a small scale and then we heard the company was actually interested in making 3D games, so it was very natural that we got all of our stuff converted first. And, because we had the knowledge, we were able to help educate everyone else about how to convert into 3D.

Having followed the technology for that many years why do you think it’s started to explode in the past year or so?
What we have now is a convergence of very high quality displays at affordable prices that can show really high quality 3D combined with great content. What we’re seeing with the power and ability of PlayStation 3 is really high quality 3D stuff that’s going to make people want to go out there, buy the TVs, upgrade the console and enjoy the whole 3D experience. And I think that’s the first time we’ve ever been in that position.

The other factor is that many cinemas have been upgraded to digital in the past few years and that’s very good for the publishers as they can control the distribution of film now. Good quality 3D is compelling, it’s amazing to watch, people want more of it and we’re following it up with good quality gaming.

What was the “eureka” moment for you in terms of seeing this technology in games?
The first time we got a driving simulator running in 3D, about five years ago, we came away absolutely amazed. Driving is one of those experiences where you need depth to really do it well; you’re perceiving speed, you’re trying to plan your breaking point, trying to find where to put your car in a corner. It’s no coincidence that all the F1 teams now train their drivers on 3D simulators.

What’s really amazing is that we are now starting to understand 3D in a creative as well as a technical sense. The games that you will see coming out in 3D are mind-blowing; we are really starting to exploit 3D and understand how to use it as a medium in the games and I find that really exciting.

What hurdles do developers face when creating a game in 3D?
The main consideration is that we are already pushing PlayStation 3 to the maximum in terms of processor power and so a lot of optimisation has to be done on the games running in 3D. It’s not a significant amount of cost in terms of the rest of the development budget which is great for us because we can add 3D content to games and we don’t have to adjust the price to do that. Some games that have got a lot of pre-rendered content are more tricky in that they’ve got to have a 2D as well as a 3D version of the rendered content. So in that case, there probably will be a bit more of an impact on the development cost although we still don’t think it will be that significant.

What do you think of the possibilities of combining PlayStation Move with 3D?
I think it’s very, very exciting. What we’ve done with PlayStation Move is to take that spatial control of gaming into a very accurate and very dynamic realm; it’s really taking it to a new level. You can just imagine the possibilities of controlling something in 3D outside of the screen and looking at it being controlled in 3D within the TV screen. What’s fantastic for us is that this is the first time this has ever been done. The games we’ve already converted are great fun and we’re still only dipping our toe in the water. Once we educate all of our teams on how to create 3D content and how they can use PlayStation Move in 3D, you can just imagine what they’re going to start producing.




BTW, 3DChannel.us is on auction at NP starting at $15
