• Interactive DVD course on the principles of 3D filmmaking
• Uses both lecture and voice-guided exercises to help you put knowledge into practice
• The only course available that teaches the art and mechanics of filming in 3D

Learn the art, theory and practical techniques to shoot your own Stereo 3D film!

Both a practical workshop and a university-level lecture, Stereo 3D Filmmaking is an interactive 5 disc DVD course that arms you with the skills and knowledge you need to thrive in the post-2D media world. Starting from the basic principles of Stereo perception and continuing through to the nuts and bolts of the hardware you’ll use on your next 3D project. You’ll learn:

• How your brain perceives Stereo in the real world, and how that differs from Stereo 3D
• What Stereo Parallax is, how to control it, and how to avoid making the mistakes that give viewers headaches from watching it
• How viewer distance and screen size affect not only the viewer’s sense of depth, but also dictate key parameters for the Stereo shoot
• The importance of non-Stereo depth cues, and how to use them to turn merely acceptable Stereo 3D into compelling and truly immersive 3D
• Frame Violations, the “magic” of the floating window and how to use its power >wisely
• And much, much more!

What makes it interactive?

In addition to the classroom material that’s shot in Stereo 3D, this class comes with a special FrameForge Stereo 3D Laboratory (for both Mac & Windows) and 20 directed, audio-narrated Stereo 3D exercises that let you test and apply the knowledge and techniques you learn in the class, in an optically-accurate Stereo 3D virtual film studio.

This FrameForge Stereo 3D Laboratory is based on FrameForge Previz Studio 3, the same award-winning Stereo 3D software used by Sony 3D Technology Center in the training of professional Hollywood cinematographers, camera men and directors.

What makes it complete?

In addition to all of the above, this class includes four hours of Expert Insight from Stereo 3D luminaries such as Buzz Hays, VP at Sony in charge of the Sony Stereo 3D Technology Center, Bernard Mendiburu, author of the premier book on Stereo 3D filmmaking, R.A. Benson, post-production supervisor on Coraline, and many more.

Don’t get left behind in the 2D world. Leap into the future of film with Stereo 3D Filmmaking: The Complete Interactive Class.
