Jim here. Thought I would drop the good word for my friend Andrew Woods over at SD&A - their annual conference is upon us once again!
This time around, Pixar is the keynote: Bob Whitehill, Stereoscopic Supervisor at Pixar will be addressing the crowd with his "Three Dimensional Storytelling". Using examples from "Up", "Toy Story" and "Toy Story 2", Whitehill will discuss the use of 3D as a visual storytelling device in Pixar's films. The Keynote presentation takes place at 4pm on the first day of the SD&A conference - Monday, January 18, 2010.
The advance program for the 21st annual Stereoscopic Displays and Applications (SD&A) conference is now available on the conference website: http://www.stereoscopic.org/2010/program.html. The program includes 66 technical papers, and a number of special events including the hugely popular 3D Theatre, two discussion forums, the demonstration session, a 21st birthday dinner, keynote presentation, and the 3D gaming experience.
Registrations are now open at: http://www.stereoscopic.org/register/index.html
Plan now to attend. Register by 20th December to get the best rates. (SAVE US$100)
SD&A runs from January 18-20, 2010 as part of the IS&T/SPIE Electronic Imaging Symposium in San Jose, California. Nineteen other imaging conferences, including two other 3D related conferences, share the symposium, providing good synergy across the imaging community. Colleagues who are new to stereoscopic imaging should consider attending the short course on "Stereoscopic Display Application Issues" on Sunday, January 17. http://www.stereoscopic.org/sc
The Stereoscopic Displays and Applications Conference opens today in San Jose and stays out until the 30th, if you are in the neighborhood - go on over to the San Jose Convention Center and check it out! Here is there conference link. Andrew Woods has kept me up to date with everything to do with this 3D event and it looks outstanding this year...
I received an email from Andrew Woods over at www.stereoscopic.org - they are hosting their 19th Stereoscopic Displays and Applications Conference January 28 to 30th, 2008 at the San Jose Convention Center. He wanted me to pass on some info for any interested readers. My pleasure Andrew!
