To further the IMAX experience, “Star Trek Into Darkness” used IMAX cameras to capture several sequences. Exclusively in IMAX theaters, sequences filmed with the extremely high-resolution cameras will expand to fill more of the screen with crispness and clarity, putting moviegoers right into the explosive action and vast scope of the film, believes Paramount.
“Star Trek Into Darkness” is written by Damon Lindelof, Alex Kurtzman & Roberto Orci and directed by J.J. Abrams. Abrams is producing with Bryan Burk through Bad Robot Productions, along with Lindelof, Kurtzman and Orci.
