TECHNIQUES IN CREATING THE SLEEPING BEAUTY.
Sleeping Beauty was the first animated film to be photographed in Super Technirama 70 widescreen process, in the 35 mm 8-perf and optically enlarged to 70 mm 5-perf prints for deluxe exhibition.
A few of Super Technirama 70 were presented in 70 mm Cinerama at some venues. Special optics were used to project the 70 mm prints onto the deeply curved screen to mimic the effect of the original 3-strip Cinerama process.
