I've never complained about a post not belonging on HN before ... so, before I do, can someone explain why this belongs here? If it involves some breakthrough

  Crack Creative (http://www.crackcreative.com http://www.crackcreative.com) developed a new production technology called "Virtual Production" for Avatar back in 2005. It allows directors to shoot CG motion capture characters and settings interactively like an actual location. Pace Camera (http://www.pacetech.com/ http://www.pacetech.com/) developed the 'fusion' 3d camera to film(HD) the live action parts http://www.nowpublic.com/3d_hd_fusion_camera_from_pace http://www.nowpublic.com/3d_hd_fusion_camera_from_pace.

    Stories and videos about the tech behind the making of Avatar would be far more HN-worthy than the mass-market trailer. The trailer is essentially just an ad/teaser/spoiler for a movie that will probably be as heavily promoted as Titanic.
