Wim Wenders shot with a STEREOTEC rig

The new italian short movie from Wim Wenders „Il volo“ was supported by a „STEREOTEC mini Side-by-Side Rig“. This project represents the first Italian stereoscopic cinema production and probably the first attempt in the world to tell a true story in 3D. The STEREOTEC Side-by-Side Rig mini was used with two Si-2k to support the shooting with a very light solution in addition to a mirror rig. The production was done by Xilostudios in Italy.
