I believe we will. Supposedly, Alpha Trion and Sentinnel Prime are in this movie.
Sounds cool. |

It's NOT being shot in 3D. It's gonna be converted in post.

Since the start of production a few months ago, Michael Bay’s Transformers 3 has made a number of unfortunate headlines. Now, we have learned from a source close to Bay that the movie is not being shot in 3D as originally believed. Instead, next summer you will see yet another product guilty of a post-production 3D conversion. Apparently, filming did begin in 3D, but Bay opted out when the production moved to Chicago. Considering how open the Chicago sets were to the viewing public, it’s surprising there haven’t already been more definitive answers regarding the lack of 3D camera rigs on set. I took some photos and video of the downtown shoots and each time I scoured the set for a 3D rig – but there were none to be found. Today’s news would explain the absence of the mammoth cameras. It was revealed two months back that Transformers 3 would be shot in 3D but it’s sounding as though nobody followed-up on that report. The film’s rushed production should have been fair warning that a full 3D shoot would be extremely difficult to pull off. The misdirection should come as no surprise – considering Bay’s penchant for releasing false information. We’ve already been thrown for a loop regarding the appearance of the infamous twin Autobots in Transformers 3. In case you need to be caught up to speed on that rumor, the Twins are definitely in the movie. Couple that news with the Megan Fox fallout and Transformers 3 has been one confusing shoot. It’s unfortunate that Bay changed his mind during production. Shooting using stereoscopic cameras is about the only way to create a truly immersive 3D final product. I might argue that the only truly effective mainstream 3D film to date is Avatar. Of course, accountants would say otherwise, since the last three films to gross $1 billion each were 3D. That said, we’ve yet to see really great post-production 3D – and it’s doubtful that Transformers 3 will be the first. If you are wondering why Bay would cut 3D cameras (a drastic decision), it’s probably related to his aggressive filming style. Bay has never been shy about throwing a car through a building or running a camera alongside his actors. The intensity of his filming style requires a lot of handheld camerawork and multiple angles. Those multiple angles may have been the deciding factor, as filming using a 3D rig is very restrictive. While money may be a non-issue considering the massive budget of Transformers 3, it still costs a lot to shoot using five 3D cameras at once. Bay’s shots are constantly moving and require multiple rigging systems. Add everything together and it seems it just wasn’t worth the price and trouble. In addition, Bay is known for his on-the-spot directing and 3D rigs are less maneuverable and could have slowed production. To be fair, it is possible that Bay shot certain scenes in 3D and the rest in 2D, with a post-production conversion. Even if that is the case, Transformers 3 just isn’t going to be the 3D robot action movie we hoped for. What do you think about a post-production 3D retro-fit for Transformers 3? Transformers 3 hits theaters July 1st, 2011. Source Confirmation of what some of you have already said. Also, I dunno if it's been mentioned here but I just found out this evening that a portion of Transformers 3 will be shot here in Puerto Rico. I guess that explains how/why Tyrese was able to take time off to come here and shoot Fast & Furious 5. |

Re: Transformers 3 Announced
Meh, makes no difference to me. I've been opting for 2D showings of films anyway.

Re: Transformers 3 Announced
Well I hope it doesn't get released in IMAX. Last thing I want to do is run it in 3D for weeks on end if it's post-converted.

Re: Transformers 3 Announced
Transformers Not in Real 3D? False If you are reading ScreenRant, you might walk away with the impression that Transformers 3 will not be in Real 3D but instead use the dreadful post-production process. Their "evidence" is rather flimsy. ...next summer you will see yet another product guilty of a post-production 3D conversion. Apparently, filming did begin in 3D, but Bay opted out when the production moved to Chicago. ...next summer you will see yet another product guilty of a post-production 3D conversion. Apparently, filming did begin in 3D, but Bay opted out when the production moved to Chicago. Just in case you still have concerns, Michael Bay did one of his forum drive-by's and laid any doubt to rest in a post. Who is this moron posting about what I'm shooting with??? People have no idea how hard we have worked to bring 3D filming into live action shooting. We have invented rigs and systems to place 3d cameras like no other live action movie has done before. The proof will be noticed on the final product. Michael Sony Pace 3D Cameras on the set of Transformers 3 in Chicago by Iceforest, on Flickr |

Re: Transformers 3 Announced
God this is going to be awful to look at in 3D. I mean it's already hard to tell what the hell is going on in the action scenes of the other movies as it is. Now we're going to have a bunch of crap flying out of the screen too...perfect!

Re: Transformers 3 Announced
Apparently they're going to be filming in my area soon, about half an hour south of me.

Re: Transformers 3 Announced
Yeah it's started, my friends in Melbourne/Rockledge saw them storing the cars in a local warehouse for filming down at Cape Canaveral.
One friend did a doubletake when he saw bumblebee just kind of hanging out, he went back and snapped a couple photos, posted all of one photo on facebook about it (spoilered for size not content): Spoiler:
It seems we get a movie crew down this way once a decade or so, though the last major one I really remember was Contact. Last not so major one being I'll Believe You. |
Re: Transformers 3 Announced
They were at the VAB today, there are pics circulating of the cars/trucks sitting in in the lot. Nothing fancy. Will see about posting them when I get home.
