Definitions for "CINEMIRACLE"
A wide-screen presentation, as in Cinerama, that used three separate 35 mm film strips projected on a large, deeply curved screen. One of the main differences, however, was the consolidation of the three projectors in a single booth away from the audience. This was accomplished by the use of mirrors on the two outer projectors to maintain picture orientation.
Cinemiracle was a widescreen cinema format competing with Cinerama developed in the 1950s. It was ultimately unsuccessful, with only a single film produced and released in the format. Like Cinerama it used 3 cameras to capture a 2.59:1 image.
