A Little Thought about the Life of Pi


These days, the Life of Pi is popular. Based on thebest-selling novel by Yann Martel, it is a magical adventure story centering on Pi Patel, the precocious son of a zoo keeper. Dwellers in Pondicherry, India, the family decides to move to Canada, hitching a ride on a huge freighter. After a shipwreck, Pi finds himself adrift in the Pacific Ocean on a 26-foot lifeboat with a zebra, a hyena, an orangutan and a 450-pound Bengal tiger named Richard Parker, all fighting for survival. The picture shots are gorgeous. 3D technology, 3D animation and 3D visualization bring new life to film.
