Jon M. Chu came back to direct a second installment in the “Step Up” series of dance movies only because he would be allowed to shoot it in 3D. He says 3D is not only perfect for a dance film but that it enhances the story and emotional nuance of dramatic scenes as well.
Chu immediately went to work on the Justin Bieber 3D concert/documentary “Never Say Never,” being released Feb. 11.
In the following video, Chu discusses both movies and the advantages of the Blu-ray 2D and 3D editions of “Step Up 3D,” being released on Dec. 21.
