The Queen documentary kicks off a week of 3DTV programming being offered by [Channel 4](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/british-sign-language). Director Bob Angell and Cameraman Arthur Wooster used camera tricks to create the 3D footage effect. Scenes were shot at the same time, but from different angles, and then edited into one picture. But you have to have the [special 3D cardboard glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3d-laptop) to appreciate the effects. Channel 4’s ‘3D Week’ is sponsored by [Sainsbury](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sainsburys-italian-style-ready-meals)’s supermarket chain who distributed the free 3D glasses. As another first, Courvoisier, the UK’s biggest cognac brand, will run a 3D TV ad spot. Other highlights planned throughout the week for viewer enjoyment include a ‘3D Magic Spectacular’, showcasing the world’s greatest and most shocking magicians performing in 3D, a 3D version of Paul Morrissey’s ‘Flesh for Frankenstein’, the thriller ‘Friday the 13th Part III’ in 3D, ‘The Greatest Ever 3D Moments’, and ‘Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert’ in 3D, and more! What a fun idea. I love 3D, don’t you? Channel 4 in the United States, are you listening? ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 10% | Activity: 55% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Social Good](https://www.trendhunter.com/socialgood) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **3D Film Viewing:** The Queen in 3D documentary reveals the potential for creating immersive and captivating experiences through 3D film technology. - **3D Advertising:** Courvoisier's 3D TV ad spot demonstrates the opportunity to use 3D technology to create memorable and engaging advertising campaigns. - **3D Programming:** Channel 4's 3D Week showcases the growing popularity and demand for 3DTV programming, presenting opportunities for content creators to explore innovative and entertaining 3D shows. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Film and Entertainment:** The Queen in 3D and other 3D films open up new possibilities for the film industry to provide audiences with unique and immersive cinematic experiences. - **Marketing and Advertising:** Courvoisier's 3D TV ad spot highlights the potential of 3D technology for advertisers to capture viewers' attention and create memorable brand experiences. - **Broadcasting and Media:** Channel 4's 3D Week reflects the increasing demand for 3DTV programming, presenting opportunities for broadcasters and media companies to attract viewers and explore innovative content formats. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Celebratory Coronation Housewares](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kings-coronation-products.md) - [Royal Celebration Chocolates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cadbury-products.md) - [Coronation-Themed British Sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urban-eat-1.md) - [HDMI-Supported Holographic Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hypervsn-smartv.md) - [Weather-Triggered 3D Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/volta-media.md) - [Celebratory Retailer Coronation Pubs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-king-in-the-castle.md) - [Colossal Holographic Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colossal-holographic-display.md) - [Streaming Platform Dining Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tv-dinner-popup.md) - [Glasses-Free 3D Monitors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/odyssey-3d.md)
