Vince Pace, director of photography on the Los Angeles unit of 'Avatar', told Cinematical that Michael Bay's upcoming Transformers 3, now titled Transformers: The Dark of the Moon, is being both shot and post-converted in 3D. "We're doing Transformers with Michael Bay, and that's a big challenge because he's not the kind of director that's going to give you a break," Pace said to reporters Tuesday. "But he met it halfway and he said, look, it complements my product, and I want to incorporate this into my shooting style."

Pace spoke to reporters at the Los Angeles press day for the new 'Avatar' 3-Disc Special Edition Blu-ray. He confirmed that both processes were being used on the 'Transformers' sequel, and observed that filmmakers can make good use of either of them as long as the circumstances are right. "They're doing both," he revealed. "[But] once we win that – once they know you're putting a better product on the screen, then you're working as a team. I think the dimensionalization quotient, if you will, can work if you have enough time, if you have the right talent behind it, and some money to back it, you're in a good place to work in it. Because it's part art, part time, and it's part technology."

Do not think for a moment that Post-Conversion as a way of cheap alternative. Even James Cameron’s Avatar was part Post-Converted. During an interview with MTV, producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura was asked whether "Transformers 3" will be shot in 3D. He replied: "We're literally in the middle of that. I think the answer is that as James Cameron, who had plenty and plenty of time to [make 'Avatar'], even he converted some of it. So I think the answer is that you're going to do some kind of combination if you end up doing it."

It's now a trend to release Teaser and Theatrical trailers in 3D with other movies. Do you think Paramount might do the same and reveal a Transformers 3 Trailer in 3D? Tell us what you think at our Transformers: The Dark Of The Moon Trailer Discussions.
