RealVision.ae's article entitled "Planning a 3D movie? Previsualize in 3D!" highlights the capabilities of FrameForge Previz Studio 3's Stereo Edition as part of a larger discussion about the best ways to plan for a stereographic 3D Shoot.

"Previously, it was expensive to actually do previs in 3D, due to cost and bulkiness of equipment. But technology changes at a rapid pace and it is now completely cost-effective and possible to have lightweight stereo3D rigs to do shot pre planning on location. Even final shoots are now being done with extremely portable and high quality 3D Camera rigs such as those from Silcon Imaging - the Si2K and from RED - (RedOne in Stereo configuration)

The footage can be viewed later with cheaper anaglyph 3D systems or even projected in full color polarized or shutter 3D systems in the edit studio or Directors office. Real Vision Consultancy is one such solutions provider for high fidelity portable preview equipment and solutions.

Planning and even script writing could take a new turn as added insights become available, during scene previews when sifting through a previz capture of a location, and prior to film shooting. This opens up a range of possibilities that were previsously not available to movie making"
