National Geographic's giant-screen film Mysteries of the Unseen World was named a finalist in the 3-D and Science categories for this year's Wildscreen Panda Awards. The 40-minute film, narrated by actor Forest Whitaker, is an original production by National Geographic and Day's End Pictures that was created especially for giant-screen viewing and is available in 3-D and 2-D, 15/70 and digital formats.
Mysteries of the Unseen World shines a fascinating spotlight on objects and events that escape the naked eye every minute of every day. Visually stunning and rooted in cutting-edge research, the film blends high-speed and time-lapse photography, electron microscopy and nanotechnology. Mysteries of the Unseen World was produced by Lisa Truitt (Mysteries of Egypt) and Jini Dürr (Sea Monsters: A Prehistoric Adventure) and directed by
Louie Schwartzberg (Disneynature: Wings of Life).
"This film exemplifies National Geographic's dedication to creating films that inspire people with the wonder and possibilities of science," said Mark Katz, president of distribution at National Geographic Cinema Ventures, which is part of the newly formed National Geographic Studios. "We are honored to have this film be selected as a finalist in both the 3-D and
Science categories for this year's Panda Awards."
