Shaw Adds Additional 3D Programming to Line-up
December 28, 2010 8:27AM

Shaw and Shaw Direct have added additional 3D titles from Walt Disney Pictures to the programming line-up. A Christmas Carol, for example, Charles Dickens' traditional Christmas tale, is back as a 3D classic, set in the heart of 1843 London, with favourite characters like Scrooge, Bob Cratchit and the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future put in a new dimension.

"We have many customers who are early adopters of 3D technology and we're proud to be blazing the way on content choices," said Peter Bissonnette, President, Shaw Communications Inc.,. "Being able to bring the magic of 3D Disney movies into people's homes is a great way for our customers to celebrate the holidays. We're proud of all the Disney movies we already bring through VOD to our customers - our new Disney 3D lineup is a wonderful evolution to those."

The television provider reports it is delivering its 3D-HD signals in an MPEG-4, 1080p format.

In addition to Dickens, Shaw will also offer additional 3D titles throughout December, including Bolt, Chicken Little, Meet the Robinsons and Step Up 3D. The programming is available in Shaw Video On Demand by clicking on Movies and selecting the 3D folder.

Disney's A Christmas Carol will be delivered to Shaw Direct customers across Canada, and additional titles will also become available on Pay Per View, including Bolt, Chicken Little, Meet the Robinsons, Step Up 3D and more.

Shaw customers will need a DCX 3200 HD box or 3400 HDPVR to view their 3D purchases and to get the ultimate 3D experience Shaw Direct customers will require an Advanced HD receiver or Advanced HDPVR.
