James Cameron has opened the first international office of his 3D technology and production services company, Cameron Pace Group (CPG), in Melbourne, Australia. Which is great news for Australian film makers as it gives them access to the same technology that made the likes of Avatar possible.
The Avatar director said "We are very excited about enabling more world-class 3D productions in Australia, he said. Andrew (Wight) is a longtime collaborator with Vince Pace and myself and I'm proud to have him join the team." Wight has previously produced Sanctum.
I wonder how much of an influence Peter Jackson had on Cameron, as New Zealand isn’t exactly too far away from Australia. Regardless, this is a huge boost for the film industry on that side of the globe.
