Ju-On: the Fudge
February 19th, 2005Yesterday, I moved on to the back. Still waiting for the actual copy for it, so this is filler. I traced the left hand border and laid in the 3-D image of the “line up,” the only photo taken specifically for the album. The right side will have 3 or so smaller 3-D vignettes of 3D show photos.

Because they weren’t taken with a 3D camera (or two cameras aligned, taking pictures simultaneously), I have to viewmaster it… cutting up the areas of the photo into planes and shifting the red-blue to make some come out and some recede. I jerryrigged a way to do this when I was in high school, just fiddling with photoshop controls, but I’ve largely forgotten how I did it. Right now I’m making three layers and turn the contrast up on the red and blue layers and setting the “fill transparency” to only affect cyan/yellow+magenta layers respectively. Setting the opacity to “darken” only seems to help. Now, if this still works when it prints, that will be the test. Working on the screen is only half the battle.
This Dutch site will make 3D anaglyphs from 2D pictures for many euros… their examples are pretty cool though. The Tintin one is particularly viewmastereque.
