U2 3D

February 29th 2008 11:17

U2 3D is the first live-action movie to be shot, produced, and screened exclusively with digital 3-D technology. The film is composed of footage from several shows from U2's Vertigo Tour in 2006. It is the band's second movie, after 1988's Rattle and Hum. It will be released in Australia on April 10th.

U2 3D puts viewers within the pulsing energy of a live U2 stadium concert. Marrying innovative digital 3D imagery and 5.1 Surround Sound, it creates an immersive theatrical experience unlike any 3D or concert film that has come before. Shot in South America during the `Vertigo` tour, U2 3D continues the band’s use of technology to create exceptional multi sensory experiences.
"Bono wanted to go somewhere magical" with the creation of "U2 3D", says director Catherine Owens; he was seeking an intensity the already ecstatic feelings evoked by U2's live concerts.
The film, primarily directed by Irish artist Catherine Owens, and Mark Pellington, who co-directed the live shoot and provided invaluable creative support throughout post-production, sets out to capture the band's relationship with each other and the resonant response of their fans.
The first digital 3D, multi-camera, real-time production, the film was brought to life by 3ality Digital, who shot over 100 hours of footage with the largest collection of 3D camera technology ever used on a single project.

The trailer for U2 3D is below:

In the film which runs for 85 minutes, the band plays an 11-song set, returns to the stage for a two-song encore, and returns to the stage a final time to perform one more song while the end credits roll.

"Vertigo"
"Beautiful Day"
"New Year's Day"
"Sometimes You Can't Make It on Your Own"
"Love and Peace or Else"
"Sunday Bloody Sunday"
"Bullet the Blue Sky"
"Miss Sarajevo" / Reading of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights
"Pride (In the Name of Love)"
"Where the Streets Have No Name"
"One"

First encore

"The Fly"
"With or Without You"

Second encore / end credits

Step Up 2 the Streets

February 13th 2008 11:34

Step Up 2 the Streets is the sequel to the hit Step Up. It includes much of the production team behind the original film including Step Up’s cutting-edge hip-hop choreographer Jamal Sims. Also on the production team are choreographers from other hit dance films including Hi-Hat (Bring It On) and Dave Scott (Stomp the Yard).

Nothing in life has come easily for 16-year-old street dancer Andie West (Briana Evigan) - nothing, that is, except dance. After her mother died, she was taken in by her mother's best friend, Sarah (Sonja Sohn), but for Andie, Sarah's house is just one more place she doesn't belong; her only real family is her dance crew, the 410, and her guardian angel from the neighborhood, Tyler Gage (Channing Tatum). After Andie skips school for the hundredth time to rehearse with the 410, Sarah tells her she's had enough - she's sending Andie to live with her aunt in Texas. But luckily for Andie, Tyler steps in and saves the day: he convinces Sarah to let Andie stay in Baltimore if she agrees to attend the Maryland School of the Arts. Now all Andie has to do is get in.

Once Andie lands at MSA, she finds herself fighting to fit in while also trying to hold onto her old life. Her school commitments quickly start taking up all her time, and after she misses one too many 410 rehearsals, her crew throws her out. But Andie refuses to give up; instead, she joins forces with the MSA's hottest dancer Chase Collins (Robert Hoffman), and they recruit a crew of their classmates to compete in Baltimore's underground dance battle, The Streets. Sparks fly between Andie and Chase, and she ultimately finds a way to live her dream while building a bridge between her two separate worlds.

The trailer for Step Up 2 the Streets is below:

To prepare for the role of Chase, Robert Hoffman actually went into the Baltimore city underground dance scene and participated in competitive break dance circles.

The Australian release date is January 18th.

Effie White, Deena Jones, and Lorrell Robinson - three friends from Chicago - are a promising singing trio called The Dreamettes. Accompanied by their songwriter C.C. White (Effie's brother), they travel to New York to compete in a talent show at the Apollo Theatre. Although the girls lose this first bid for fame, their talent attracts an ambitious manager by the name of Curtis Taylor, Jr., who uses unscrupulous tactics to move the girls from backup singers of superstar James "Thunder" Early to superstars of their own.

The group evolves into a more sophisticated group, The Dreams, with a lighter sound and chic look. They successfully attract a "whiter" audience and The Dreams rise to international stardom.
