“We’re thrilled that our initial entry into 3D production will feature a Pac-10 match-up with the top-ranked college football team in the country, along with new technology in the first game of the day that transforms how fans interact with game footage,” said Marc Fein, Executive Vice President of Programming, Production and Business Operations for VERSUS. “We saw this double-header as the perfect opportunity to showcase new technology and create an unbelievable viewing experience for fans.”
