Museum Monday: History of 3D photography at PDX

If you’re traveling to or through Portland International Airport (PDX) this week, make sure to take a look at the exhibit in Terminal E focusing on the history of 3D photography and film in Oregon.

Also included is a ¼ scale garden set and puppets from the movie Coraline, by LAIKA, a Portland-based  animation company. Coraline was the first stop-motion feature to be conceived and photographed in stereoscopic 3D.
