On Aug 17, the First China 3D Printing Film Forum was held in Beijing, gathering more than 200 participants from companies, research institutes and government sectors, who shared their perspectives on the innovation of additive manufacturing and the application of 3D printing in the film industry.
“The world is going through the third industrial revolution.” said Dr Jiang Wenbo, the Executive Deputy Director of the R&D Center of 3D Printing of the Shanghai Ninth People’s Hospital. Observers believe that 3D printing could be integrated with the film industry in role design and the manufacture of animation-related products. “Most people get to know a film not from the advertising videos, but through the prevailing toys and souvenirs that relate to the film. That is exactly where the opportunities of 3D printing lies,” a film producer said.

The China 3D Printing Film and Television Exhibition Center was also officially launched on the same day. The center will function as a channel for the public to understand 3D printing as well as its application in different fields. An assortment of 3D printing machines and products were displayed during the forum.
The forum was jointly sponsored by the Shanghai Research Institute of Additive Manufacturing, the Youth Film Studio of the Beijing Film Academy and Beijing Donglang Film Industry Park, backed by the Investment Promotion Agency of Ministry of Commerce, the High-tech Department of Ministry of Science and Technology, and the Shanghai Addictive Manufacturing Association, among other institutes.
The Shanghai Research Institute of Additive Manufacturing is committed to promoting the popularization of 3D printing technology, international exchanges, textbook editing, education and training programs in the sector. The Beijing Donglang Film Industry Park takes the lead in the development of 3D printing film and television, promoting the combination of 3D printing technology and traditional industries, enabling more industries to apply 3D printing technology.
