Three-dimensional special effects are the latest tool being wielded
by marketers as they struggle to cut through the clutter in the 21st

Centro Digital Pictures has already worked on two high-profile TVCs
using the 3-D technology for Hutchison's mobile phones in Hong Kong
(pictured above) and K Force.com, which is the largest recruitment
company in the United States for the North American market.
Popular actor/singer Leon Lai starred in the Hutchison commercial, for
which Centro's special effects machines produced a dazzling bird
transmogrifying from a phone and an electrified ball skimming the
surface of an ocean at fantastic speed.
