Update:

Yes I got to see it in 3D.  I was there.

I had the two Olympus OMGs 13 1/2 inches apart.  Why 13 1/2 inches?  Well that was
as close as I could get them with my RBT S1 in-between them on the same bar.  I
fired off 34 pairs with the Olympi's and 14 with the S1.  It took me a few hours to
get ready.  I had to work Saturday night (6 pm to 5 am), and had time to check my
cameras.  I cleaned the lenses (one of them had internal fungus, so I had to change
it out.  Fortunately I had a few to pick from), put new batteries in the winders and
the cameras.  Oh, after mentioning this upcoming shoot on photo-3d, Ben Melton sent
me two winders and a dual phono plug shutter release for the the Olympi.  I picked
up my friend, Ivar, after I got off work and got to the Smith Tower by 6:30 AM.  For
those of you who don't know, Smith Tower was built in 1914.  I'll have to come back
and take a couple rolls of just the building!!  It took me about 1/2 hour to find a
good set up spot, clean the window, and align the cameras. The dust cloud covered
us, so between 2 and 10 minutes after the blast, there was not much use shooting any
pictures, 'cause there was nothing to see.  I was so close that the 50 mm lenses on
the SLR's had the Dome covering over half the width of the frame.  I'm taking the
rolls of film down to get them developed tomorrow.

What are my next steps?  Should I have dupes made (for future sales if they're that
good) before I cut the film, or since they are full frame should I go ahead and
mount them in RBT mounts or 2X2s and make dupes of the best ones.  Maybe I should
have one full duplicate set of everything made, and then mount the dupes to see
which ones are best? I could have a motion lenticular made!  Perhaps I should ask
this on Sell-3d?
