Programs for LA Banquet:

INTRO (5 min)
A brief exposition of the 3D gear and methodology used to make the 3D programs shown tonight (where not included in the program itself).

–

STREAKLIGHT SONATA (9min)
Various techniques of streak-photography are presented in still-animations and video, including long-exposures of moving light-sources, light-painting with wands and orbs, camera shaking and tossing, etc.

–

COSMIC JOURNEY (11 min)
This program features 2D-to-3D conversions of a large number of Hubble Space Telescope images. Both stills and full-motion animations of Jovian clouds, nebulae, and galaxies are included.

THE HOMEWRECKER (8 min)
A holiday gone bad. A dog, a present, a Christmas tree, …….. Winner of the Paul Wing Award at NSA2010, this short comedy uses a combination of HD stereoscopic video, DSLR timelapse, and 3D stills.

And, with time and interest permitting,

WAVE RIDERS (10 min)
A movie featuring slow-motion (3 – 5fps) stop-action sequences of the wet and wild kayak rodeo in Salida, Colorado, June 2010. With sometimes humorous, sometimes death-defying white-water action, this piece illustrates having fun with DIY low-budget progressive-scan video.

John Hart Bio, Boulder, Colorado

John took up stereo imaging in 1998, after pursuing flat (2D) nature and wildlife photography for almost 30 years. Initially he concentrated on stereoscopic adventure-sports photography involved with canyoneering, mountain climbing, and white-water kayaking. More recently he has been using innovative techniques to visualize a wide range of scientific phenomena, with the goal of using stereo-realism to bring out the artistic beauty of his subjects. Examples of this work include sub-microsecond ballistics, DSLR-timelapse, optical-slicing microscopy, 2D-to-3D conversions of Hubble imagery, and animations of hyper-complex fractals.

John has developed instrumentation for viewing stereoscopic prints (the MirScope) and has contributed to the methodology of combining animated stills and videos into stereoscopic programs designed for digital projection and 3DTV’s. Single-sided versions of his stereo-pairs have appeared in magazines like Outside, Adventure Sports, American Canyoneering, and on the covers of Science, Microscopy Today, and StereoWorld. His photomicrographs routinely place among the top entries in the yearly Nikon International Small World competitions, and his projected 3D programs have won first-place awards at NSA Conventions (2007 – 2010 inclusive) and at the LA3D FilmFest (2010).
