I love 3d movies and as soon as I figured out that I could start shooting 3d video I started to study how to do it. As many know, I also shoot underwater stills and videos so my need was of course underwater possibility. So as I had already one GoPro HD Hero camera and I noticed that GoPro had announced a 3d-housing for their camera, it was time to buy a second camera.(Please check NAB 2010) After many failures with different types of rigs I soon figured out that the simplest solution is the best. Until I really have a 3d-housing I need to use something else, this is what I made. I just connected the two cameras with iron barn.

First I used Cineform NeoHD program with Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 to edit my 3d videos. I did get some nice videos with this solution but because of some odd software problem(NeoHD crashing), it was really difficult to get any good example file.

I had to gave up from Cineform because I got info from them that it’s known bug. Cineform was able to pinpoint my problem in their software and provided me an update where this problem was fixed. I need to test it separately.

I found easy way to watch my 3d movies. First I open them in QuickTime, edit the file so that it will start from my sync point and then I save as reference file. I can play them directly in Nvidia Vision 3D Player just by opening two videos, though FullHD was too much for my hard drive, now I need to update my computer

I will update the workflow of editing 3d footage into here

Anyway I found much more simpler solution. I edited the video directly in Premiere Pro CS5. I made an sequence that is double the wide of my footage and imported all video in there. Then I just offset right video to the left side and left to right side, YouTube wants it in this format. After this I edited it, added sound and exported it. Here is the final solution.

I installed a new program today. this small program makes possibility to update your blog in Word like editor and I’m posting this text using it.

In first start it will ask blog information and accounts and passwords. After this you are ready to start writing text. So far I’m not be able to change the default language of spell checking.

Lets also try to add picture from it. First I will take a screenshot, and with little cropping help of Paint I will get this result.

And so far it seems to be working. So I will post this and find out what happened

Update: It really works

It even remained open while posting it. There is a history that tells previous posted posts.

Hmm, I also find the preferences where you can change the default language.

I also find out the tags, and it uses Technocrat services? No idea. I have to Google it. And of course it still thinked that I’m writing in Finnish.

But Amazing here is that you can easily add maps from bing.

Here is and example of what kind of photo album it makes.
