This may be more for a photo NG, but since some of
the same techniques work in video (I put the images
side-by-side in the video as double squares, using
cross-eyed viewing similar to the images on the
web page), here goes...
- dual cameras on a bar, spacing greater than eye
distance (gives greater effect with more rounded
subjects, without as much "flattening" effect with
greater subject distance).
- using one camera, shoot, then move it sideways for
the second shot (possibly useful in video, but not
with motion, alas...) - sometimes with very distant
subjects, I move the camera hundreds of feet for
the second shot.
- grab accidental 3-D still images from motion-video
(as one stares at the timeline while editing
[filmstrip view], one occasionally sees 3-D images
in the strip - when the camera was moved sideways
and little else moved...).
Have fun with them - at the URL below (look in
the photo categories for the 3-D images).
