Abstract:
When Day, a sunny fellow, encounters Night, a stranger of distinctly darker moods, sparks fly! At first, they are are frightened and suspicious of each other, and they quickly get off on the wrong foot. But as they discover each other’s unique qualities, and realize that each offers a different window onto the same world, their friendship helps both to gain a new perspective. The stereo 3D screening of “Day & Night” precedes a presentation by the director, Teddy Newton, who explains his inspiration for the film, what it took to get a green light from the studio, and the challenges posed by such a technically ambitious process.
