The stereo movie editing technique described herein combines knowledge of both multi-view stereo algorithms and human depth perception. The technique creates a digital editor, specifically for stereographic cinema. The technique employs an interface that allows intuitive manipulation of the different parameters in a stereo movie setup, such as camera locations and screen position. Using the technique it is possible to reduce or enhance well-known stereo movie effects such as cardboarding and miniaturization. The technique also provides new editing techniques such as directing the user's attention and easier transitions between scenes.
A computer-implemented process for creating stereo video, comprising:
A user interface for editing stereo video, comprising:
A user interface for editing multiple video frames, comprising:
The user interface of claim 16 further comprising using the user input device in order to manipulate the first and second frame regions in order to specify transitions between a first stereo video frame sequence and a second stereo frame sequence.
