Fields of Valor: The Civil War – 3NET 3D program review

[Big Picture Big Sound]

3net, the nation’s first and only fully-programmed 24/7 3D network, will be debuting their new four-part mini-series Fields of Valor: The Civil War on Saturday, December 3 at 9pm Eastern and Pacific time. A dramatization based on actual individuals and events, Fields of Valor was produced in full stereoscopic 3D. …

The results are unlike any Civil War recreation we’ve ever seen. At times, Fields of Valor looks like it was directed by Zack Snyder, the image occasionally freeze-framing but for a slow-motion spray of simulated blood issuing from a wounded soldier. The musical score also comes curiously, dangerously close to heavy metal at times. Much of the historical facts that we gain along the way come from the mouths of a few men on each side of the conflict played by unknown but determined actors. …

The 3D effect of Fields of Valor: The Civil War is evident in many shots, the aforementioned plasma sprays being among the most obvious. The battles are fittingly dynamic in their placement of the many combatants, but even a lone character sitting and speaking directly to the camera can really stand out against his background, while on-screen graphics and titles pop with undeniable depth. The HD image is consistently sharp as well. The series also includes actual stereoscopic war stills from The Library of Congress, which now take on new 3D life via modern technology.

Civil War buffs in particular will definitely want to tune in.
