“I3DS has created industry and public awareness of three-dimensional media with its annual Creative Arts Awards Show. The creative people in motion pictures, television, and advertising, who have made the best use of 3D, will be recognized for their achievements by their peers and the public,” said Lipton.

Jim Chabin, president of the International 3D Society, stated, “This year's 3D films, TV and other content platforms are achieving extraordinary new levels of artistic and technical quality. The Society's Awards will be the opportunity for us all to recognize the creative professionals and organizations responsible and record for history this year’s accomplishments.”
