Good point. What about Hugo ? That’s not an action film, but Scorsese used 3D more like a storytelling tool. There’s that famous scene with the clockwork mouse...
Okay, how about Gravity ? It’s not entirely in 3D – wait, correction – it was released in 3D, but the opening sequence is actually flat. Then the debris scene hits, and the 3D becomes overwhelming. That contrast could be great for analysis.
That sounds technical, but maybe that’s a strength for our analysis. Okay, let’s do it. So our final choice is Gravity , not Avatar or Hugo . 3d film choice ielts listening answers
You will hear two media studies students, Emma and Ben, discussing which 3D film to analyse for their group presentation. Listen carefully and answer questions 21–30. Emma: Right, Ben, we need to settle on a film by tomorrow. Professor Hendricks said our analysis has to focus on the use of stereoscopic 3D, not just the storyline.
Right. Then let’s reconsider Gravity . If we can’t get the 3D disc, the library has a digital copy with the 3D left eye and right eye separated. We’d need to sync them manually, but it’s possible. Good point

Good thinking. Right, let’s write the outline. Sample IELTS Listening Questions (Questions 21–30) 21. Which film did Emma and Ben initially consider but reject as being too common? A) Gravity B) Avatar C) Hugo There’s that famous scene with the clockwork mouse
Perfect. I’ll book the media lab for Thursday afternoon. And we should include in the introduction a comparison with a native 3D film like Life of Pi – just to show we’ve done our research.
Why do they reject Dune: Part Two ? A) The 3D version was not approved by the director. B) The library does not own it. C) It was only released in IMAX 2D.
I love that idea. But we have to check the availability of clips. The university library has Gravity on Blu-ray 3D, but the equipment to play it is only in room 4B, and it’s booked all next week.
