Question by Jesse B: How do they make 3D movies ?
Like I know that they get 2 cameras and everything but I was wondering how do they make the things looks like they are coming at you ? Do they throw things and make things hit the camera or is it all computer generated ?

There are many different techniques. The only technique YOU will be able to recreate is the traditional Stereoscopic 3D technique.

It’s simple: You just need two cameras which have a fixed distance between them. You need to shot all your shots with that exact same distance.

Then, load the two cameras into a editing suite. Using a certain technique and stereoscopic 3d classes, you’r eyes will separate these two cameras from each others and you will feel it’s like 3D. Just like how your eyes works.
