Fly Me to the Moon 3D preview
Fly Me to the Moon is a 2008 Belgian CGI animated 3D feature film (in English) directed by Ben Stassen . The movie combines the Apollo 11 mission with a whimsical twist involving three tweenaged flies who go along on an incredible space adventure.
nWave Pictures is one of the largest producers of original 3D material for IMAX theaters and theme parks. The company’s first feature, Fly Me to the Moon, is the first-ever computer animated film designed, created and produced from first frame, exclusively for the 3D experience.
“While I strongly believe that 3D cinema is about to become a major component of the out-of-home entertainment market, I don’t think every story lends itself to being shot in 3D,” explains director and nWave Pictures co-founder, Ben Stassen. “So when we decided to make the move from specialty films to feature films we searched for a story that could actually be enhanced by 3D. The search took almost 2 years.”
Fly Me to the Moon 3D releases in Dubai cinemas on 4 February.
