With an increasing number of (small and big) 3D-ready screens, the demand for 3D content will explode. Professionals wishing to explore or fine tune their techniques in 3D production have the choice between several 3D workshops: Avance Rapide’s S3D Campus in Paris: a five-day course 3D Production in Theory and Practice and a two-week long workshop Directing a Film in S-3D, a project-based course proposed by FAS, and sessions run by CIANT, mainly targeting Central and Eastern Europe. CIANT proposes very specialised sessions on preservation techniques and methodologies for digital audiovisual works, integrated approach to 3D cinema and stereoscopy, S-3D live action and S-3D post production. HFF Academy’s Insight Out provides an insight into all aspects of today’s HD, 3D, D cinema production.

Archive, restoration and preservation techniques will also be the subject of FRAME - Future for Restoration of Audiovisual Memory in Europe by INA . TOSMI – Training on Open Source Multimedia Instruments – courses are designed to introduce media professionals to the benefits and possibilities of an open source pipeline in audio-video production through a professional training course in Blender, TOSMI 2011. Tosmi also offers a course in 3D Integration and Visual Effects with Blender.
