PRODUCTION

A key focus for IMAX is the production of high-quality movies for the IMAX® theatre network. IMAX's award-winning team has extensive in-house experience in producing critically acclaimed and broadly appreciated movies that are both educational and entertaining for people of all ages. Many make an impression that can last a lifetime.

IMAX movies have taken audiences on fantastic journeys to places beyond the reach of most people, from the far reaches of our solar system, to the hidden depths of planet earth.

Live Action
IMAX and IMAX® 3D cameras have been instrumental in the production of IMAX's inspiring documentaries, and recently they have also been used by top Hollywood filmmakers to shoot select action sequences, including the groundbreaking scenes in Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight and Michael Bay's Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.

IMAX DMR®
IMAX DMR® is the Company's groundbreaking digital re-mastering technology that allows virtually any Hollywood motion picture to be digitally transformed into the unparalleled image and sound quality of The IMAX Experience®. The IMAX DMR process enhances image and sound to a level of clarity and sharpness that consumers expect from An IMAX Experience®.

2D TO 3D Conversion
IMAX's 3D conversion technology enables live-action movies that were originally shot in 2D to be converted into IMAX 3D. The technology has been successfully applied to IMAX Hollywood features, such as Superman Returns and Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, as well as original IMAX 3D documentary-style films.
