How to Make 3−D Videos
Ever wanted to make a fun 3D video? This is how!
[edit] Things You'll Need
- Two Cameras
- 3D Glasses
- A Video Editor
- a lot of patience
- simple video editing software
[edit] Warnings
- The slightest angle difference in the cameras will completely ruin the whole shot. Make sure the lenses are level with one another.
[edit] Steps
- Check the "Things You'll Need" Section. Get your two cameras, and make sure the lenses are 2-8 (three works best, but the greater the more 3D effect) inches apart. It helps to create a device that holds them both from the tripod screw spots on the bottom.
- Film whatever you want in 3D with both cameras.
- Upload both videos into your video editor.
- Make one of the videos (let's say the left camera's video) have a red overlay. Make the right camera's video have a blue overlay. The result should be the same video, twice, in two colors, three inches apart.
- Place both videos into your editor, on top of each other, so you can see them both at once. The result should be almost purple and you should have a somewhat "double-vision" look to it.
- Export this video, and play it, while wearing those Red-Blue 3D glasses and it should work. If not, you should try experimenting with the settings.
- If need be, switch the colors to darker or lighter shades. Maybe even try changing the distance of the lenses.
- Make sure you can "Place both videos on top of each other" with whatever "simple" editing software you have
[edit] Tips
- You must make sure that your two videos are in exact sync with each other, otherwise you will get a poor result.
- When editing these videos together, it also sometimes helps to remove the audio from one of the videos.
- While recording, the cameras must be perfectly aligned. Check if they are aligned with a level.
