This week I’ve got a short post about videoblogging and 3D video. My animation/live action piece that will premiere next week will be shown in 3D and I’m doing a little 3D demo this week. So find yourself a pair of 3D glasses and go check it out. If you can’t find some glasses, check it out anyway.
P.S. Here are the links that go with the video.

I can’t find my 3-D glasses.
I know I’ve got them around here somewhere!
Your videos are great! One thing though… I wish they played in the current browser window rather than open a new page. For instance, this time you were referring to links below the video, but i had to hit “back” to see them.
Check this link for a tutorial on videoblogging with blogger:

It has a nice section on creating “poster frames” that start the movie when clicked. I think Eric Botticelli at http://www.freespeeches.net often uses this technique.
awesome, time to steal the glasses from the school!!!!
you are so awesome man.
i can’t find my 3D glasses either but it was still fun.

I’m ordering some 3D glasses now so I can send everyone a pair. I’ll let you know when I get them.
Nice! With a digital camera you can also make 3D still photos…there’s some instructions here:

I’ve used this technique to make a bunch of 3D pictures on my website:

In theory you might be able to set up two side-by-side webcams to make 3D movies, but it’d be tricky, the technique you used of having separate flat layers at different depths probably makes more sense. If you want to try it though, here’s some software that could help:

By the way, after the “Free 3D Glasses” link you said “(tell them you want a pair of red/blue anaglyph 3D glasses)”, but I think it’s actually better to ask for red/cyan glasses (cyan is a combination of blue and green, which basically just looks like a light blue), since these work better for color 3D pictures, and anyway most black-and-white 3D pictures on the web are red/cyan rather than red/blue (it looks to me like the light-bluish shade in your own 3D video is cyan, not blue).
You’re right. The Red & Cyan glasses are better. I’m going to buy a bunch to give away when I finish my 3D thing.
you’re insanely talented and insane in the membrane! WHAT GOES ON IN MICHAELVERDI’s HEAD? (the world asks) i’m extremely proud of you and eager to show you off to everyone i know!!
Good thing I still have mine from Spy Kids 3-D…gonna try and make one myself.
