Tarzan of the Apes

In 1966, executives from GAF Corporation saw Montyne’s work and wanted him to create the three-dimensional scenes for their upcoming View-Master stereo pictures of Tarzan of the Apes. The book contains 21 scenes recreating the Edgar Rice Burroughs story. Montyne created an illusion of depth, using special lighting and an understanding of photography, to make viewers think Tarzan was over three hundred feet in the air flying through the trees. The scene actually only had a depth of three feet.
