Get in the movie!
Just over 40 years ago, an idea was born that
transformed the way people experience movies. The
technological breakthrough of four Canadians: Graeme
Ferguson, Roman Kroitor, Robert Kerr and William
Shaw resulted in the invention of IMAX, the best
cinematic experience available. Today, close to a billion
people worldwide have visited an IMAX theatre.
The IMAX Experience ¨ combines the world's clearest
and brightest motion picture images with digital
surround sound and an immersive theatre geometry
that puts audiences IN the movie in a way that cannot
be replicated in ordinary movie theatres or at home.
IMAX Corporation is one of the world's leading
entertainment technology companies, specializing in
digital and film-based motion picture technologies. In
1997, IMAX's innovation was recognized with an
Academy Award ¨ for Scientific and Technical
Achievement. In 2008, the Company intends to
introduce its first fully digital IMAX 3D projection
system paving the way for a new generation to enjoy
the biggest and best cinematic experiences delivered
with the newest technologies. IMAX is headquartered
in Mississauga, Ontario with offices in New York, Los
Angeles, Shanghai and Europe.
