It is currently being tested in some pizza chain (Showtime Pizza?) regionally, and a friend of mine in Dallas who has seen the demo film says it is very, very, impressive. (He actually used the predictable "knocks your socks off" phrase.) Sorry, but I don't remember the name of the process or any technical details other than the high frame rate. Apparently Trumbell is releasing a number of demo films in the future, each a 1/2 hour short from a particular genre. If you're living in an area where you can see this, go do it. I'm thinking of road-tripping to Dallas just to do so.
