P3D Re: stereo/pufrich/multicam

Boy, am I glad someone mentioned the GAP jitterbug commercial!  I was
floored the first time I saw it -- luckily I had caught it on tape and
have been able to look at it closely with freeze-frame on my VCR.  I
didn't consider Pulfrich, but I do think it could be used for a "trick"
slide-bar shot to get a TV displaying its picture in depth.

I would like to learn more about how this effect was achieved.  I'm also
curious to find out if I will get true 3-D from two stills, or whether I
will just get cheap "cardboard cutout" effect instead (as if the rotation
might have been synthesized).  I guess I better try it and see!
