3D Sightings - Singapore
------------

The Singapore History Museum (Stamford Road, Singapore) is currently showing
a 35 minute 3D movie called "The Singapore Story".  The movie "traces 
Singapore's history through 7 critical periods of time" from the 14th century
to present day.  The movie is polarised projected (linear) and played
back from what appears to be some form of digital source.  It was
hard to tell what type of projectors they were using.  The movie itself
makes very sparing use of 3D.  When 3D is used, it is well aligned and
has good depth and no extreme usage.  Most of the 3D imagery is computer
generated graphics but there is some 3D video at the end of the movie.
The theatre has been specially setup.  Sits about 50 people and has
a silvered screen about 2.5m high x 4.5 m wide.
The entry fee is only S$2.00 (~US$1.20) - well worth it.
