MediaMation Inc. (MMI) and Michigan Science Center are collaborating once again to bring more movies coupled with special effects to enhance the exploratory minds of their patrons. MMI has a long history with the Michigan Science Center going back15 years. The Science Center had the largest number of 4D Motion EFX seats in the country at the time with 166 seats. MediaMation's early MX4D Motion EFX seats were installed in the Toyota 4D Engineering Theater and are being utilized to this day. With that, new 4D motion films continue to be programmed for explorative visitors to enjoy.
"We are excited to add two more 4D films to our 4D Toyota Engineering Theater! Our goal is, and has been, to give people the opportunity to enter awe-inspiring ecosystems and environments that they might otherwise only dream about. Everyone has potential and our mission is to inspire our visitors to pursue theirs and enjoy learning." - Lucy Hale, Chief Business Officer
