SGO Mistika for one Sharp Cookies

Blackpool, Lancashire – As part of a £20-million refurbishment of the iconic Blackpool Tower, London-based production company Sharp Cookies has produced a 4D Cinema Film that was almost entirely post-produced using SGO's Mistika post-production system.

The visually stunning film was directed by Michael Hall, co-founder of Sharp Cookies for Merlin Entertainments Group Ltd – the owner of many major entertainment brands such as Tussauds, Alton Towers, Sealife and The London Eye. David Cox, also co-founder of Sharp Cookies, was the stereographer and post-production supervisor on the project using Mistika.

The immersive 4D Cinema experience, which incorporates incredible 3D images, 7.1 audio surround sound and “fourth dimension” physical effects which include snow, rain, wind, smell and a vibrating floor, to name a few, is shown in a purpose-built theatre beneath one of the tower's own arches. Visitors to the top will view the 4D film as part of their overall Blackpool Tower experience.
