Electronics makers are also betting on 3D. Several major brands launched 3D-ready HDTVs at CES and are promoting it as the next major breakthrough in home viewing. South Korean giant LG Electronics predicts its sales of 3D-ready TVs will reach 400,000 this year and sail to 3.4 million next year.
The more 3D TVs that are bought, the more likely it is that content providers will produce a wide range of 3D entertainment, according to market researcher In-Stat. For home-video makers, 3D-ready Blu-ray Disc players are key because they ensure a single standard for 3D movies, the researcher says.
Matt Morningwood, a producer/director at Pink Visual, has also started making 3D adult video content. The company filmed six 3D video clips for the iPhone. A separate company made a special shell with a slide-in screen to allow iPhone users to watch 3D porn on their handsets without glasses.
While 3D on TVs and in theaters requires glasses, at least for the foreseeable future, glasses-free technologies are already available for small screens that are viewed close up, such as the Wazabee 3DeeShell for the iPhone 3G.
"To see porn on an iPhone without the glasses, I think that's key," he said. "I think for 3D to really take off we have to ditch the glasses."
Working in 3D production is very different from traditional filming, he said.
"We noticed when we were watching the footage later that you have to frame things differently for 3D," he said. When part of an arm or leg is cut out of a shot in a 2D movie it looks okay, he said, but in 3D it looks "kind of strange."
He is hoping 3D TVs will take off this year and said Pink Visual plans to have a 3D Blu-ray Disc out in about September or October. The plan depends heavily on how many people buy 3D home entertainment systems this year.
One thing adult filmmakers won't have to worry about is how actresses will respond to 3D. In the transition to high-definition TV, some actresses said the level of detail made them self-conscious. But several actresses interviewed at the adult expo here sounded enthusiastic about 3D.
"I'm very excited about 3D, I think it's awesome," said Raven Alexis, an actress at Digital Playground. "It's like being there in the film, and for adult entertainment and people watching porn I think it will be really exciting to actually feel like you're there in the scene with the person."
