Michael Bay goes IMAX with 'Transformers 2'

Michael Bay will shoot select scenes of his new action blockbuster “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” with IMAX cameras, the IMAX Corporation, DreamWorks and Paramount announced Tuesday.

Bay will integrate the IMAX footage with CGI to create an unprecedented look and feel for the highly anticipated sequel to last year's box office hit, “Transformers.”

The movie sequences shot in traditional 35mm will be digitally re-mastered to appear in the traditional "letterbox" shape, while scenes shot with IMAX's cameras will expand vertically to fill the entire IMAX screen.

"The extraordinary level of detail and intensity captured by the IMAX camera creates many exciting possibilities for us with this film," Bay said.

“Revenge of the Fallen” stars Shia LaBeouf, Megan Fox, John Tutrurro and Tyrese Gibson. Watch for the sequel in theaters June 26, 2009.
