Let’s face it: Someday we’ll likely look back on the special effects of our time and think projects such as Avatar 3D “cute” and “historically groundbreaking” in that They Didn’t Really Know Any Better sort of way. Looking to the horizon, MediaShift’s Nick Mendoza gathered 10 movie executives and analysts to garner their predictions on film in the future. What made the top of the list?

3D

Ahmad Ouri, CMO, Technicolor: “2010 will be a defining year for 3D in theaters, in the living room, and even on mobile. For nearly a century, Technicolor has innovated entertainment for the big screen and the small screen, and we’ve seen the ‘big’ get bigger, and the ‘small’ screens get smaller, with the advancements in mobile devices. In 2010, we’ll see 3D film and other content infiltrate all of these visual display mediums, and 3D will no longer be confined to the multiplex.”

See what else the experts identified as the way of the future.

    Shuling I agree that is if the crews are stuck in the rut of "But we have always done it THIS way"
    As Robert points out. There is a shortage of people with production experience who can actually use the digital tools that are available today. It would be advisable for current film production crews to utilize their knowledge and experience to help improve this world of poorly produced and executed YouTube type videos.
    This in turn opens up a new market for coaches who can teach the crews how to teach what they know. There is opportunity for everyone if you look for it.
