“If there is innovation happening anywhere in the world, (Ontarians) are all over it,” says John Helliker, director of the Sheridan Institute-founded Screen Industries Research and Training Center in Toronto.

The center fosters collaborative research (workflow, software, motion capture, etc.), training and relationship-building between academic and industry here and abroad working in digital image capture and creation — with S3D a key area. A new Pinewood-housed theatrical 3D screening facility will serve the center’s research and be made be available to Toronto productions needing footage evaluation starting this fall.

York U. is homebase for 3D Film Innovation Consortium (3D Flic), which unites scientists, creators and industry partners for research and development in S3D film language and production.
