Make your own 3D contents

The other day, a friend of mine organized a 3D movie night to show off his new LG LM9600. All the old friends got together was really nice. We watched movies, we drank, and we talked but all of a sudden, my friend popped out a question. “Is there any way to make my own 3D content? Such a nice get-together night, I would like to document this kind of wonderful moment in 3D.”

I started to search. It’s actually not that difficult. Here we go.

First step: shooting

Items we need:

A 3D video camera or certain mobile phones, tablets come equipped with 3D cameras.

Second step: editing

Items we need:

Editing suite such as Roxio Creator or Magix Movie Edit Pro

Third step: sharing or viewing

Items we need: Youtube

(YouTube 3D works best with the following formats:

• H264 AVC 1920x1080 Side by Side L/R with SEI Frame Packing Arrangement metadata.
• Tip: You can use x264 to encode SEI FPA information.
• WebM 1920x1080 Side by Side L/R with StereoMode information.)

A 3D TV

• active 3D TV brands: Samsung, Sony, Panasonic
• Passive 3D TV brands: LG, Toshiba, Vizio
