Seeing Double... Filming 3D Video

Last week the advanced TV students discussed 3D video. We are pretty much inundated with 3D movies, from children's cartoons to action-packed blockbusters, everything is offered with a more expensive 3D tag. But can we create these 3D movies ourselves? Do we need to purchase fancy 3D cameras? Or $150 3D glasses? We watched this tutorial which showed us that with just two similar cameras, and a unique tripod rig, we can create our own 3D videos... and even our own 3D glasses... check it out:



Now that we know we can do it ourselves, we discussed the future video project full of 3D wonder...look for it in the not-so-distant future!

We also checked out a professional video shoot using a few more tools here:



But of course, there is always the most expensive option, to purchase our own 3D, double lens camera!



This Panasonic beauty will only set you back about $20,000.... doesn't it look space-age?!
Is 3D here to stay? Will we always have to wear those glasses? Have you shot in 3D yet?
