How To Shoot Films In 3D?

Although it appears that 3D movies are a new breakthrough technology has only been available to filmmakers in recent years has actually been around for a long time. The first patent for a method of 3D cinema has been introduced in Britain in 1890 and the first film seen by a paying audience was demonstrated in 1922. In the 1950's, 3D movies became popular for a while, but it was still a novelty. In the 1980s, the filmmakers tried to sell new 3D technology, and this time reached more than integrated producers. Titles like Jaws 3D and 3D on Friday, 13 showed some success. The new cameras, software and processes have led to the latest trend in 3D, but the process does little more on the way to develop existing 3D movies are filmed.

Before answering the question of how the film shot in 3D, it should be noted that not all three dimensions of today's movies are filmed in 3D. Some of them were filmed with standard cameras and are then sent to a production company that converts the third film in the third dimension. The three-dimensional effects in post-production movies are usually not as good as the movie was originally filmed in three dimensions. In many cases the effect seems forced, damped, or otherwise unnatural.

The best 3D movies are shot with special cameras that have been invented for this purpose. The most advanced of these cameras is the 3D camera system developed by Sony James Cameron and Vince Pace, in cooperation with Sony. Cameron used the cameras to produce two documentaries before using them to film what is regarded as the greatest films of all time, 3D, Avatar.

To get an idea of ​​how movies are shot in 3D, it is important to understand how 3D works. Three-dimensional view is basically the human binocular vision, to use two eyes to create a single image in the brain. Take two eyes working together in this way is what allows people to see the depth. The brain uses triangulation between an eye and the external object, or point to determine the distance of the target. As movie screens are flat, all images are the same distance, so that the system is used to trick the eyes to see two different images.

Senior 3D movie was made with two cameras that recorded an image in red and the same image from a different perspective in blue or green. The images were projected onto the screen with two synchronized cameras. The audience had to wear special glasses with lenses of red and green or blue for each eye can only see the projected images, creating a 3D effect.

3D cameras today use two lenses to capture two sets of images, but instead of color filters, the images differ in the vertical and horizontal polarization or diagonally opposite. The films are using a standard projector with a special lens that projects the two polarizations used. Viewers still have to wear special glasses, but are more colorful. The glass filter on each image to each eye different polarization, producing the 3D effect.
