Idea: IMAX tour through laundry appliances

[mathewhebailey0]

Just came up with an idea for an IMAX movie that gives a tour through laundry appliances & probably also a dishwasher.
The idea would involve fiber optic cameras as well as animated CGI graphics on what goes on inside a washer,dryer or dishwasher. For example a tour through a Frigidaire pulsator washer that puts the audience inside the machine where they see themselves among the water & clothes moving up & down with the pulsator. Then when it goes into the 1140 rpm spin,they see themselves thrown against the sides of the inner tub as though aboard a Gravitron carnival ride & thrown upward & out over the edge of the inner tub & spun around it before seeing themselves traveling through the washer pump & out the drain hose.

Great Idea! But one question....if we are flushed down the drain, how are we getting back in for the rinse cycle? lol...sorry, couldn't help myself.

Not exactly the same, but a German TV programme for children (Die Sendung mit der Maus) filmed a washing machine with some transparent components.

The film for IMAX systems costs about $15,000 for a 45 min recording time!!Don't know what it would cost to rent an IMAX camera-it would definitely be too big to fit in the washer or dishwasher-maybe it could film glass front machines and magnify them to the huge 4 story high IMAX screen!!Oh yes-the audio would have to be recorded separately and "synced" to the picture.

foraloysius--- Thanks for the link to the washer video/pictures. I don't understand German, but I tacked on some paragraphs from The Importance Of Being Earnest and it worked out just fine...
