The Star Viz Theater is designed for use in Malls, theaters and businesses with passing customer traffic. It can be used to deliver information, sales info, or educational ideas.

As Tom Boyd, the developer
of the Star-Viz system remarked "We built a racecar - but 3rd Coast Digital put the engine in it".



Ted and his business partner Dwayne Dupre' did more than twenty 3-D animations for the three minute demonstration.

In feature film, 3rd Coast is developing 3-D storyboards from the screenplay for Ted Baldwin's sci-fi epic "Orphan Train", set in a future where ancient machines have taken up with humans, and an old evil arises.


"Orphan Train" is written as live action, with animated support to tell the visual story in a completely realistic setting.

Like "The Matrix", or "Lord Of The Rings", this film is to be seamless between reality and imagination.

3rd Coast is also currently working on a personal documentary on political perspectives, which will feature several high-volume particle animations that drive the content.
