Balto In 360 Degree Screen

that'd be cool to see!

To be honest I really don't think it would be a good idea. I mean when you're using it for a still picture it looks cool, but when you use it for film, ESPECIALLY animated films, I think it will just plain look weird as heck!

Will a 360 degrees take almost a year to make?

Longer, it took three years to just make the first Balto

Skulblaka_Shur'tugal does make a point but it's always good to at least imagine what it'd be like

Three years?! Probrably it might be 6 years to make Balto in 3D.

it'd be great to have a DVD that just lets you chose between all four options!

How many years will make a 360 degree 3D Balto movie???

Echo · **Posted:** Mon Aug 08, 2011 1:02 pm

don't know, best estimate would be ten years because 360 degree screens are extremely difficult to make, and it has never been done for an animated movie before.

10 years is a long time! I know technology is limited these days.. well not as limited as 1900's, but couldn't they make a type of specific camera that does 360 screens?

If one were to make a traditionally-animated movie to be projected on a 360 screen, THAT alone would probably take 10 years. Actually, probably more: a regular 2D film takes 3 years, start to finish, to make. That's only for ONE screen: make that into 6 or 8 screens, and it'll increase it to 15 to 20 years.

If you used technology to rush it along, you may as well not even make it 2D. And again, very few 360 screens exist, most of them are free to use in order to watch, so the cost-to-profit of making an animated 360 film would be 0 to NONE.

How much will the whole thing cost in total? Must be over 10 million.

SkulShurtugalTCG · **Posted:** Mon Aug 08, 2011 11:28 pm

$10 million? $10 MILLION! Let's put it this way: a typical film these days RARELY cost less than $100 million. To make an animated film would cost more, and a 360 film--it would force that film to become THE MOST EXPENSIVE FILM ever made! That is NOT something people want to see when they're thinking about making a film.

Okay I dunno much about movie buget things well okay then a 360 film is not a rare typical film
So maybe up to 600 mill to a little over a billion dollars?

Probably, but the bad thing? The most expensive movie ever made was only $300 million. To double that for a chance-at-a-successful film? Not a good proposition.

ChingChongChi-Neez · **Posted:** Tue Aug 09, 2011 10:09 am

that is a costly film to make so 600 mill is for all the equipment, the voice actors, the whole team, and software for animation?

SkulShurtugalTCG · **Posted:** Tue Aug 09, 2011 12:10 pm

Yep, for EVERYTHING from beginning to end, except marketing, which would in this case probably be around $50 million. Yeah, that's just WAY too much.

no one would pay that much to make balto at 360, forget it...
