  • 3D Anaglyph in After Effects using AE Cameras?

    Posted by Ben Mcnulty on March 25, 2010 at 7:46 am

    Hi,
    I was wondering how I would go about creating 3D Anaglyphs inside of after effects using the AE cameras. So I will have all my layers in 3D space, and have two cameras set up, bring both camera angles into a new comp and use the 3D glasses effect. But how can i set up a camera rig? And dont the cameras have to be on a certain angle and distance apart for the effect to work properly (to make it look real)?

    Thanks in advance.
    Ben

    See this thread started by Chris Keller. He wrote some great anaglyph stereoscopic scripts for After Effects.

    I’ve used them a few times. The workflow is still clunky — AE doesn’t really support stereo — but these scripts are an incredibly well thought-out workaround for this, and they will save you hours and hours of work.
