Mark Twain Library in Redding will host a program at 3 p.m. on Saturday on how to create 3-D photos using smart phones or cameras.

The class will be led by Fred Newman, who is best known for creating the sound effects on the radio show, “A Prairie Home Companion.” He’s also done voice work for “Harry and the Hendersons and sounds for “Who Framed Roger Rabbit,” “Practical Magic,” “Doug” and “Gremlins.”

The program is part of the library’s Allen and Helen Hermes Arts Series.

During the workshop, Newman will discuss different methods of taking a three-dimensional photograph and participants will learn how to use cameras or cellphones to create their own 3-D pictures.

The workshop is for ages 10 and up and seating is limited. Visual aids will be provided. Refreshments will be served. Register online at www.marktwainlibrary.org, at the Library or call 203-938-2545 for information.
