Posted in 3D Shorts
The Hub is a 12-minute 3D short film by Sophie Piedallu (UK) that received 2nd place at Staffordshire University's GradEx 2013, judged by industry professionals.
The Hub shows a world where smartphones and internet have taken over people’s everyday lives.
The film was a test to see whether low-budget stereoscopic film making was a reality, so it was shot using a DIY Beam-Splitter 3D Rig with two DSLR Canon 550D cameras. The aim was to do a full short film in 3D, utilising depth as much as possible and fit the Sci Fi genre, in a similar way to Black Mirror.

If case you didn't noticed, Tom is an adept of extreme parallax. His videos are full of in-your-face moments with parallax as high as 30% of screen width. His last success "3D Super Extreme" combines CGI elements on a static live background and is available in 4K 3D on YouTube. Some of the objects are thrown through the screen, pushing the parallax over 100%.
Tom breaks many of the 3D rules (see the 1O Commandments of Stereoscopy) but for short periods, our brain is able to afford the monstrous parallax values and appreciate 3D for the sake of 3D. It even likes it so much it asks for more several times in a row ...
