Rakesh Roshan s much anticipated Krrish 3 will have the the best
visual effects Bollywood has seen to date, it is being said. However,
audiences may well be disappointed to learn that the film will not be
coming with 3D magic.
In what is being seen as a
u-turn by Roshan, AS reports that the film is being made in 2D to
appeal more to the younger audiences. A source has stated, The film that
has international action director Tony Ching (Shaolin Soccer, House of
Flying Daggers) on sets, is currently being shot in 2-D format only .
It
is expected that the VFX work and other visual effect will take around
six months to perfect and that there is an international team currently
is already putting time in for that. The source went on to say, There
may be a decision to have a 3-D version closer to release depending on
the market requirement then. However as of now, the Roshans have no
plans to divide their audience by releasing two versions.

Phenakistoscope (1831) A phenakistoscope disc by Eadweard Muybridge (1893).The phenakistoscope was an early animation device. It was invented in 1831 simultaneously by the Belgian Joseph Plateau and the Austrian Simon von Stampfer. It consists of a disk with a series of images, drawn on radii evenly spaced around the center of the disk. Slots are cut out of the disk on the same radii as the drawings, but at a different distance from the center. The device would be placed in front of a mirror and spun. As the phenakistoscope is spun, a viewer would look through the slots at the reflection of the drawings which would only become visible when a slot passes by the viewer's eye. This created the illusion of animation.
