Free Idea # 216 - 3D movies of nature scene
Produce 3D movies that show relaxing places such as beaches,
gardens, mountains, parks and so on. As far as possible, the
atmosphere of the viewing room should also give the viewers
the feeling of being in these places: a sea breeze, the warm
feeling of sunshine, the smell of grass and so on. Busy people
can take a few hours off from their work to enjoy some
relaxation without having to leave the city.
