In this episode of Real Reel Talk, Josh and Dave dive into the fascinating world of immersive cinema — from the groundbreaking spectacle of Cinerama in the 1950s to the cutting-edge technology of ScreenX today.
They explore how these formats reshaped the moviegoing experience, blending art and innovation to pull audiences deeper into the screen. Cinerama’s sweeping analog vistas once redefined cinematic scale, while ScreenX’s digital 270-degree projection now transforms theaters into living canvases of light and motion.
Along the way, they trace the rise, fall, and evolution of both technologies, examining what worked, what didn’t, and how each reflects cinema’s endless pursuit of immersion.
Whether you’re a film tech enthusiast, a movie historian, or just someone who loves the big-screen experience, this episode takes you on a panoramic journey through the past, present, and future of immersive storytelling.
