October Meeting 10/16

The October meeting of the LA 3-D Club will take place on Thursday, October 16th from 7:00pm – 9:30pm at the Velaslavasay Panorama, 1122 W 24th St, Los Angeles, CA 90007

The evening will include a prerecorded tutorial by Club Competition Director David Kuntz on how to effectively set the stereo window for your stereoscopic photos. With most of the current digital 3-D cameras, the lenses are not converged, which sets the zero-parallax point to infinity. When projected, this places all elements of the image in front of the screen, and can lead to window violations if things in the picture extend past the left and right sides of the frame. David will demonstrate how to use software to adjust the image pair to avoid these visual conflicts, make your photos more comfortable to view, and hopefully score higher points in our club competitions.

To get into the Halloween spirit, the evening will feature a presentation from Lawrence Kaufman and Eric Kurland from 3-D SPACE, as presented this past July at San Diego Comic-Con and August at at 3D-CON in Minneapolis, about the 1953 3-D movie ROBOT MONSTER and it’s place in pop culture, including a special look at the upcoming ROBOT MONSTER 3-D comic anthology book.

The meeting will conclude with a club member “Show-and-Tell.” We would love to see your favorite GHASTLY & GHOSTLY 3-D images and collectibles. Members are encouraged to share an item of interest with the rest of the attendees. Share you favorite photos, videos, and 3-D items. We’ll also have a ew other SPOOKY SURPRISES!

We look forward to seeing everyone IN PERSON!
