Die ästhetisch-narrativen Dimensionen des 3D-Films

Part of the book series: Neue Perspektiven der Medienästhetik ((NPM))

Zusammenfassung

Departing from the question what cinema might want from D3D, the computer based stereoscopy, Distelmeyer firstly analyses two cinematic aesthetic and narrative strategies. On the one hand the focus is on films like Hugo, Kathedralen der Kultur, and Cinesapiens, which explore cinema itself with a self-reflexive approach. On the other hand examples like Avatar, Tron: Legacy, and Gravity foreground a “politics of space” transporting audiences (in)to places beyond the function of being merely “background” for narration. In this respect a wider context is taken into consideration: The D3D dispositif that encompasses the development of three-dimensional and stereoscopic images in cinema, home entertainment, medicine, and military since the application of computer technologies in the 1990s.

    „However, Cuarón was advised to perhaps include some flashbacks in the film and even more. ‚A whole thing with … a romantic relationship with the Mission Control Commander, who is in love with her. All that kind of stuff. What else? To finish with a whole rescue helicopter, that would come and rescue her. Stuff like that,‘ he explained of some of the ideas that were floated his way“ (Thompson 2013).

    Zur Verbindung von Militär und früher Stereoskopie vgl. auch: Gurevitch und Ross 2013.

    „In 1953, a 16 mm stereoscopic medical documentary of a stomach operation made it into commercial exhibition and 3D imaging has long been considered an appropriate method for displaying anatomical models: in the 1950s over 1500 photographic images and accompanying drawings were compiled for the 24-volume Stereoscopic Atlas of Human Anatomy“ (Gurevitch und Ross 2013, S. 88).
