PassmoreLab’s 3D Content Now Mobile on Spatial View’s 3DeeCentral.com

Interesting mobile content news - check out the press release:

3D fans of pesky aliens, flesh-eating zombies, blood-thirsty vampires, slimy worms, and glam band rockers can now enjoy them as part of the newly-launched 3D PC and mobile platform, 3DeeCentral.com. Spatial View’s online source of stereo 3D content has entered into a licensing agreement with San Diego-based 3D Studio PassmoreLab for a number of their 3D titles.

3DeeCentral includes paid and free 3D content available for 3D PCs, mobile and internet-connected devices. The content agreement includes titles in the genres of science and nature, music videos, extreme sports, and animation. The platforms support a number of 3D devices using active shutter glasses, polarized glasses, anaglyph and auto-stereoscopic technologies.

Spatial View has licensed content from numerous independent 3D filmmakers, bringing their total to over 100 3D titles. They have positioned themselves as the 'go-to destination' for consumers looking for compelling 3D content.

"3DeeCentral offers online stereo 3D content for a broad range of 3D devices," said Al Lopez, COO of Spatial View. "Our objective is to offer the most comprehensive coverage of platforms as possible, and our partnership with PassmoreLab gives us some beautifully-crafted high quality content offerings.”

PassmoreLab’s 3D content will be available for purchase for direct delivery to 3D mobile devices. The initial licensing term is for two years, covering all territories worldwide. Prices range from $1.99 to $6.99 US.

The initial agreement consists of eight titles from PassmoreLab, with more to follow. Specifically, the titles include:

• Science documentary “The Extreme Nature of Bats”
• Nature documentary “Microworlds”
• Documentary “Glimpse – The Fine Art of Glass Blowing”
• Part One of the Extreme Culture 3D series – “Murrugun The Mystic"
• The original 1968 George Romero zombie thriller “Night of the Living Dead, Now in 3D!”
• Ed Wood’s 1959 cult classic “Plan 9 from Outer Space, Now in 3D!”
• The PassmoreLab original animated short “Holy Moly”
• Glam rockers Semi Precious Weapons 3D rock video “Magnetic Baby”

"The timing is perfect for us to partner with 3DeeCentral as the 3D industry has expanded exponentially," said Greg Passmore, president of PassmoreLab.
"We are happy to help it expand even further, as a clip from one of our titles--Semi Precious Weapons "Magnetic Baby" 3D rock video--is also being featured on 3DeeCentral’s demo reel to entice other 3D content owners to join us.”

PassmoreLab continues to add to their already substantial 3D content library, completing science & nature documentaries The Physics of Surfing, The Extreme Nature of Bats, Microworlds, Bone Breakers, and Fuzzy Baby Animals; cult classic features Plan 9 from Outer Space, Now in 3D!, and Night of the Living Dead, Now in 3D!; the independent motion picture Iron Doors 3D; and numerous rock videos including Plain White T’s “Rhythm of Love” certified Gold; Slash’s #1 “By the Sword” with Andrew Stockdale; Semi Precious Weapons award-winning “Magnetic Baby”; punk-rockers Osaka Popstar & the American Legends of Punk “Wicked World”; and Rock ‘n Roll Hall of Famer Sammy Hagar’s “Loud”. PassmoreLab is also in pre-production on “Run You Down”, the first 3D video for Hollywood Records’ all-girl teen rockers Cherri Bomb.

A 3DeeCentral app is available for Windows 7, iPhone 3GS and iPod touch 3rd generation devices at 3DeeCentral.com. Support for iPhone 4 and iPod touch 4th generation is coming this Spring. An Android app is coming soon. From the 3DeeCentral app, users can preview, buy and download 3D content for viewing on their 3D device.

Experiencing a Hollywood feature film in 3D in the home is truly the essence of what 3DTV technology was made for, and now DirecTV customers can share this new phenomenon with their whole family right in their living room."

Further, DirecTV has announced two stereoscopic 3D specials:
