Skyline 2: Beyond Skyline | official trailer (2017)

official trailer for the sequel to Skyline, Beyond Skyline
From Writer-Director Liam O'Donnell comes BEYOND SKYLINE - Starring Frank Grillo and Iko Uwais
X-Spatial Media Technology Ltd held the grand launch of its "X-Spatial 4D Psychoacoustics" technology with the movie premiere of "Beyond Skyline" at UA Cine Times, Times Square, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong, indicating that such epoch-making audio optimization technology is officially available here, with the highest regard from Hollywood. "Beyond Skyline", the first movie to use "X-Spatial 4D Psychoacoustics" technology in post audio production, is the sequel to the Hollywood-based science fiction movie "Skyline", produced by Hydraulx Visual Effects, the same visual effects team in "Avatar" and "2012". The use of "X-Spatial 4D Psychoacoustics" enriches the magnificent story and makes "Beyond Skyline" even more perfect and complete.
During the grand launch event, X-Spatial also signed cooperative agreements with Zhuijang Film & Media Corporation Limited ("Zhuijang Film"), the leading cinema group in China, FeeFaan Cultural Industry Group Limited ("FeeFaan Cultural"), the leading video production and marketing corporation, and Beijing Forbidden City Film Company Limited ("Beijing Forbidden City"), all to promote the installation of "X-Spatial 4D Psychoacoustics" in their cinemas chains and franchises in Southern China and Northern China, so as to expand the coverage of cinemas in the Mainland and comprehensively advance into market of the Greater China.
The grand launch attracted more than 300 guests to experience the revolutionary auditory feast personally, including leaders of movie-making industry in Hollywood and the Greater China like Mr. Liam O 'Donnell, Director of Beyond Skyline; Ms. Maguy Cohen, Hollywood Film Producer; Mr. Matthew Chausse, Producer of Beyond Skyline and President of Mirabelle Pictures; Mr. Phillip Chausse, Executive Producer of Mirabelle Pictures; as well as representatives from cinemas, movie producers, movie issuers and investment sector, so that the place is bustling with joys and excitement.
"X-Spatial 4D Psychoacoustics" is a revolutionary audio enhancement technology with Wizor technology as its foundation. It generates the best quality of acoustic experience for audience by breaking through the traditional restriction of turning sound into digital data and remedying the shortcomings of audio distortion. The traditional cinema audio system depends mainly on the configuration of the physical location of the speakers to imitate a three-dimensional surround sound field. Since the space between speakers is not seamlessly filled up, it is unable to realize an ideal 360-degree spherical full spectrum surround sound effect, leading to restriction of the "sweet spot". However, the emergence of "X-Spatial 4D Psychoacoustics" solves such problem of the existing technology, allowing audiences to obtain 360-degree superlative audio-visual enjoyment like sitting at the "sweet spot" regardless of their location.
"X-Spatial 4D Psychoacoustics" revolutionary audio performance is mainly carried by three layers of technology, namely Signal Recovery, Psychoacoustics and Augmented Reality (AR). Signal Recovery can be traced back to the field of aerospace science and technology. X-Spatial established a proprietary media transmission database and accurate distortion mathematical formula through numerous research and experiments, filling up missing details of the sound in the course of transmission by recovering three-dimensional sound field from distorted two-dimensional sound source through reverse computations. On the other hand, X-Spatial realizes that sound from different directions have to change the angle when entering the eardrum, while the pattern and shape of the acoustic waves will also be altered accordingly. The brain identifies the direction and location of the sound source exactly through the analysis of these sound waves with different shapes.
"Therefore, X-Spatial takes advantage of the psychoacoustics to utilize sound waves with various shapes as the carrier of the sound source into the eardrum, forming a three-dimensional sound field and "tricking" the brain to make an interpretation that the audience is hearing a seamless three-dimensional sound field. For Augmented Reality, X-Spatial "excites" certain parts of the human brain which are particularly sensitive to sound through Music Sensitivity and & Perception Enhancement (MSPE) effect, so that listeners can better capture the exquisite emotional expression of the music to have a greater enjoyment of the music."
