The RealD Educational Campaign, the new educational campaign dedicated to schools, is promoted by RealD, a global leader in the development of 3D movie systems, in collaboration with the Fondazione Mondo Digitale.
The campaign is based on a free project on new visual technology for first-degree secondary school (years two and three) and second-degree secondary school (years one and two) in three cities: Milan, Rome and Naples. The objective is to provide realistic and exciting visual experiences and introduce students to three-dimensional technology through an original contest.
Today, the campaign in in Rome, where 328 students will participate in the event together with 16 teachers from four schools in Rome and its province:
- G. Marconi - Civitavecchia
- Peano - Monterotondo
- Pantaleoni - Frascati
- IC Belfiore del Chienti - Rome
The students will experience a 3D projection first hand with the help of RealD experts, who will explains how the technology works and what the differences are with traditional 2D projections. This will be followed by a screening of Walt Disney’s Zootropolis. All participants will receive personal 3D glasses.
Moreover, all students will participate in an Immersive Storytelling Contest: draw a 2D character for an Immersive Storytelling Project. The winning student in each city will get to transform his character into a real 3D figure with the help of immersive technology experts at the Fondazione Mondo Digitale’s Phyrtual Innovation Gym Immersive Lab.
