Movie theaters with IMAX technology gained prominence for their huge screens and high-resolution image formats. With this, movie lovers can have a much more immersive experience when watching the film. It is worth mentioning that the productions shown in IMAX theaters are generally developed in the technology format, which means that the creators developed them specifically for the public to consume the content in these spaces with large screens. Of course, not every movie theater has this type of room. So, check below where to find movie theaters with IMAX technology in Brazil.
What is IMAX and when was it released?
IMAX is a trademark of a 70 mm film format and a system for displaying films with higher resolution and a wider aspect ratio than conventional film formats. The company IMAX Corporation, founded in 1967, developed the IMAX technology.
With a 70 mm film format and a high-resolution cinematic display system, it breaks away from conventional film formats. IMAX technology has been gaining more and more fans around the world, and this success is mainly due to the fact that the technology provides an immersive experience outside of conventional standards.
But if you think that IMAX is a recent technology, you are wrong. After all, it was developed in the late 1960s and only launched in 1971 in the city of Toronto, Japan, with the screening of the film ‘North of Superior’.
Technically, how does IMAX work?
In practice, IMAX works with two large screens, high resolution image formats and very immersive sound systems. It is important to emphasize that the films are shown in IMAX theaters and the productions to be shot in this type of equipment must also have been produced with the same technology. Which means they were filmed and edited specifically to be shown on big IMAX screens.
It is interesting to note that the IMAX, for having this almost real experience, has become increasingly popular, adding a large audience of all ages and the most varied types of film. Going from action and adventure productions to science fiction.
