‘Avatar’ did help us in making ‘Titanic 3D’: Jon

“‘Avatar’ helped us in a way when to reduce 3D,where to emphasise,where to focus…at which moment,” he said.

The Leonardo DiCaprio-Kate Winslet starrer would release in 3D in India on April 5 in English,Hindi,Tamil and Telugu.

The producer also feels that filmmakers are shying away from making 3D movies.

“After ‘Avatar’ it went all into pitfall as studios were showing interest into making a 3D film rather than filmmakers. Filmmakers did not embrace it,” he said.

Talking about the format,Jon said,”3D does not make a bad movie good…it makes the storyline…the movie is more interesting to watch,it makes it more appealing for the audience to see. We want to give audience a better experience. Our intention is to expose audience to newer things.”

The 3D version of ‘Titanic’ was made at a budget of USD 18 million in 60 weeks,the producer informed.
