The 8/70 format has been used for quite a few special venue and Expo films. It has also been used for quite a few "ride films" using motion bases, and quite a few IMAX Dome films have been printed down to the 8/70 format. The first use of the 8/70 format for a movie shown to the public that comes to mind was for multimedia sequences in the program "VOYAGE TO THE OUTER PLANETS" in 1973. Those sequences were filmed in 8/65 with a fisheye lens and blown up to Omnimax. The entire film "COSMOS: THE UNIVERSE OF LOREN EISLEY" was blown up in this manner in 1974.
The 8/70 format has been used for ride films, dome projection, 3-D, and special uses such as for projection onto water screens and, for example, in the SPIDERMAN ride in Florida.
But as a sampling, here are some of the non-ride films that were projected in 8/70 (not limited to films done by Iwerks):
Imagination 1989 Tierra de Gracia 1992 To Be An Astronaut 1992 Winds of Spain, The (Vientos de Espana) 1992 Dream of Flight 1993 Enertopia Symphony 1993 Facinating World of Materials 1993 Fascinating World of Materials 1993 Korea Look Ahead 1993 Rock Anthology (Prince, Duran Duran) 1993 Voyages 1993 Big Country 1994 Cirque du Soleil 1994 Dancing in the Sky 1994 Giant Rock 1994 Heartsong 1994 Hearst Castle: Building the Dream 1996 EAGLE...America's Tall Ship 1997 Sedona: The Spirit of Wonder 1998 On Guard! 1999 Spirit of American 1999 Rheged: The Lost Kingdom 2000 Sacred Journey 2002 Vulcania 2002
