FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Passage Productions, a San Diego Video Production Company, Offers a Unique 3D Video Presentation at CONNECT’s 2009 Most Innovative New Product Awards Dec. 11, 2009. San Diego, California – After months of R & D, Passage Productions has developed a proprietary process for capturing video and presenting it in the 3rd Dimension with the use of standard 3D eyewear. Through their process, Passage makes the offering accessible to every form of professional presentation, while meeting budgets of all sizes, a process that was unthinkable to smaller and medium-sized businesses in years past. Under current marketing conditions, this offering is a refreshing alternative to average presentations. Partially filmed at select locations in the community of Coronado by a team that includes a local Coronadoan producer and writer, the presentation offers a unique view of a San Diego family’s daily life through technology and innovation. As an official launch to their unique service, Passage Productions’ first major presentation will happen this Friday, December 11, during CONNECT’s 2009 Most Innovative New Product (MIP) Awards. The “MIP Awards”, considered to be San Diego’s “Oscars” for regional innovation, will take place before a live audience of more than 800 top executives, business leaders, entrepreneurs, service providers and academics from the Southern California region at the Hilton La Jolla Torrey Pines. The awards will consist of eight categories, along with a surprise presentation of the Distinguished Contribution Awards in Technology and Life Science. The William W. Otterson Award will also be awarded to a San Diego technology that has changed the world. This year’s Otterson Award recipient is General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. for the unmanned air vehicle Predator. This type of live awards presentation offered in 3D is a first for San Diego County, which Passage Productions is proud to spearhead. With a great number of entertainment presentations available in 3D (check your movie listings for new James Cameron movie AVATAR in 3D), bringing the next dimension into the business sector could only be possible using innovative designs developed right here in San Diego.
