In this video I talk with Phil, the head tech at Fenwick 3 in Esperance, Western Australia. This is a very remote location with special needs and skill sets. Let Phil explain..

Great as always! Very interesting!
Maybe it is time for you to get some lavalier mics, they look a lot better than the “holds-on-mic” you’ve got.

Cheers from Netherlands

I am a 3D & motion graphics artist looking for 3D projection solution using circular polarization. I was looking into LG CF3D 1080P which does 120hz, I do know this works with shutter glasses, but can this also work with polarized glasses? here is link to projector http://www.geeky-gadgets.com/lg-cf3d-1080p-full-hd-3d-projector-11-01-2010/

Also, pardon my rudeness. great interview. I would assume that there should be some type of insurance policy for broken hardware that ships over to Australia? That must be nerve-wrecking. Never the less great job Phil,& interview.

Insurance does not get it on screen the next day.

Yes, it should probably work. Domestic equipment is not really my area. But from what I know, DLP are one of the easiest for doing single projector 3D. To tell the truth, duel projector is probably better and easier for domestic. Should work with any projectors.
Driving a DLP at 120Hz with the right synced images through a z-sreen or similar.. Sounds difficult and expensive.
Duel Projectors (Like what IMAX do) is always better.
