Interview
Susan Sarandon talks about the Wachowski Brothers SPEED RACER and confirms something revolutionary: They’re using some high def thing that comes with guards and it’s beyond anything I’ve ever…. I saw 10 minutes before I left, they did a special thing for me cause they’re just wrapping and having a party tonight, they were still working after I left. They’re doing something where they’re layering film so that the front and the back are in focus like a cartoon and they’re also doing two dimensional and three dimensional stuff and mixing and everything is very, very saturated with some new kind of film, so they actually have to treat the actors in some way so we can hold our own with the background. So it’s every color that wasn’t in The Matrix is seriously in this film.

So basically, the whole scene will be in focus and it sounds like they are doing some kind of HDR type stuff... Should be VERY cool when it comes out :)

Meh, I'll give it a shot when it comes out. I still have some faith in the Wachowski brother & sister?
