ABSTRACT
Eric Kurland has always loved 3D movies. When he was a kid, back in the 1980s, he attended a media arts school that taught all aspects of filmmaking and also ran a weekly community movie night, where he would occasionally screen 16 mm anaglyph prints of The Creature from the Black Lagoon, It Came from Outer Space, and The Maze. He learned a lot about creative filmmaking there, but it never occurred to him that he could shoot his own 3D photos or movies. Kurland studied film in college, and then moved to Los Angeles in 1994, where he worked in conventional 2D, “flat” animation.
