Step into the world of 3D with animator Virpi Kettu, whose credits include Wallace and Gromit and Shaun the Sheep! Inspired by real stereoscopic images from the museum collection, you’ll create your own animated masterpiece in this fun and hands-on 1-hour session.

👓 What is a stereoscopic image?
It’s a special kind of picture that makes things look 3D—like they’re jumping out at you! Your eyes see from different angles, and when your brain puts two slightly different images together, it creates the illusion of depth. It’s how old-school 3D glasses worked!
