The Cougars are Comin’ At Ya!
Today is the day that Cougars, Inc. is officially released to the world, or at least the North American parts of it, via on-demand services after its première last night. On the 10th of May the same region will be able to get our hands on the DVD and Blu-ray versions (21st April in Germany). But you may want to hold off on that hard copy purchase for now…
KM UK can exclusively reveal that two weeks after the discs are available a very special Blu-ray edition will be announced: Cougars, Inc. 3D. All the fun of the original but with added depth!
Filming was not done using 3D cameras so the effect has had to be added in post-production using a technique known as advanced proportional rectified interlace level field optical over layering. This is a complicated procedure that extracts depth information from 2D images and re-applies it in certain ways to create the stereoscopic effect. The time it has taken to perfect this technique is one of the reasons the movie was not released as widely expected in December 2010.
Huge thanks to Nisan Aptal for tipping me off about this.
New 3D-effect box art had been created for Cougars, Inc. 3D and KM UK has been able to obtain a leaked copy of it, as you can see on the right. A larger version is now in the Gallery.
Yes, this was a fake story for April Fool.
