[photo-3d] DrT's NSA 2001 Workshops

["Dr. George A. Themelis" <drt-3d@xxxxxxx>]

Here are the workshops I would like to do at NSA 2001:

1) Stereo Slide Mounting (w/Dave Kesner and contributions
   from Jon Golden): Explain the basic principles of stereo
   mounting.  Demonstrate mounting with currently available 
   41x101mm mounts.  Special emphasis will be given to the
   RBT to Spicer transfer method, demonstrated by DrDave.
   Show in projection examples of mounting errors, plus
   do a "live" demonstration of the stereo window (move
   the window while the slide is projected).

2) Getting Started in Stereo Photography with a Manual
   Stereo Camera.  Tips on how to select and use a stereo 
   camera from the 1950s.  Emphasis is on manual camera 
   operation.  The following concepts will be explained: 
   exposure, shutter speed, aperture, focus, depth of field, 
   hyperfocal distance.  Recommendations for taking pictures 
   with daylight, low light, flash, close-ups.  A variety of 
   stereo cameras will be available for demonstration and 
   hands-on display.  

3) How to take stereo pictures with a Single (2D) Camera.
   This will cover a variety of techniques: Slide bar
   hypostereos, hand-held normal stereos, hand-held
   hyperstereos, stereos from a moving platform, etc.
   The workshop will give tips for getting good stereo pairs 
   (i.e. how much to shift, how to align the camera between 
   shots, how to shoot with drifting clouds, etc.) and show 
   examples of single camera stereo pairs in projection.

4) How to do Trick/Creative Stereo Photography:  A guide
   to unconventional, yet appealing stereo photography.
   The workshop will focus on unusual stereo pictures via
   the use of unconventional composition, films, stereo
   base, multiple exposures, digital manipulation, etc.
   A variety of stereo slides will be shown in projection
   and the techniques used to create them will be discussed.

I would prefer not to have any workshop on Friday, and have
the first 2 on Saturday afternoon back to back and the last
2 on Sunday afternoon back to back.  Because I will be setting
a projector, it will be better for me if the workshops follow
each other, but I cannot do more than 2 at a time, due to my
trade show responsibilities.

Please let me know if you have any questions, ideas, etc.

Thank you,

George Themelis
