    Posted by Nicky Rodriguez on November 2, 2007 at 3:06 pm

    I’m doing an anaglyph project the video was shooted with 1 camera, then i load the footage in ae, and make a composition with the footage and 1 camera with cyan solid in darken mode, move the camera 10 pixels to the right and named the compo 3d right, then i duplicate the compo, and replace the cyan solid with red solid, move the camera 10 pixels to the right and called this compo 3d left, then i put both compos in a new compo, and put the cyan on top in lighten modei got my anaglyph effect, but only see the whole compo move back in 3d space, how can i make the whole compo move front in 3d space, to get the effect of coming out of screen?, any help will be appreciated it, thanks

    I tried, and did everything as manual says, but i think maybe i need to do something else, because still no works

    Sorry … but on set, on location, did you shoot video with one camera or two cameras?

    First i tried with one camera, and didn’t work, then i tried with 2 cameras, so now i have 2 tapes with same footage, both cameras in same tripod mounted on one plate

    Thanks for your answers, when i said cameras were mounted on the same tripod plate, i mean side by side looking same point of interest, looking for the perspective you explain, and i put footage from cameras in 3d glass effect, but i get too much ghosts, i played with controls, but no look, cause when i get both images aligned at centre, objects near to borders looks with ghosts, and image in centre doesn’t look too forward to the screen as i desire

    Red and Blue (the regular cartoon glasses), the weird is that i can see the effect on every movie i found on the net, but not mine, using the same glasses

    Ok, i was working on the footage of the 2 cameras and i found the 3d depth in one of the objects in the scene, i have a chair and a girl behind the chair, there i looks the chair in front, nice effect, but i notice the other objects in the frame are not aligned when i make the effect, too much ghots, so i think is a matter of distance from the cameras to the scene, does anybody knows how far should be the cameras from the scene?, my scene is a girl sitting in a chair in a room, behind her are some furnitures and lamps, thanks
