Undead Dimension: Resident Evil in 3D is a 2010 documentary short that was released exclusively on Blu-ray copies of Resident Evil: Afterlife.[1]
Summary[]
Anderson starts the short by talking about the evolution in film immersion, having grown up at a time when surround sound was not as developed. As an extension, Anderson believes 3D could become prominent in cinema as a further evolution.
Anderson, Jeremy Bolt and Glen MacPherson discuss 3D cameras and how they differ from regular ones. They are bulkier machines which require a specially trained operator, and lighting needs to be better. Props had to be positioned in a particular way to better show the 3D aspect. The company that provided the camera was run by James Cameron and Vincent Pace, who had used it on Avatar. Due to the weight of the cameras, a normal crane would not hold the load and the production studio had to construct their own equipment. A Sony F35 and a Phantom HD camera were used for the film, with the Phantom used for slow-motion sequences.
Because the decision to shoot the film in 3D came early, the film could be planned out for it. Anderson devised a series of sequences which would take advantage of the cameras, such as the sequence where two Alice clones jump out of a window. Arv Grewal, the production designer, and Dennis Berardi, the VFX lead, got to work on creating physical sets and CG objects that would demonstrate the depth.
