Digital 3D Photography

Digital 3D photography is a form of photography in which a camera is used to produce images that give the illusion of 3D or take multiple exposures and digital manipulation. This captures images digitally as opposed to capturing images with photographic film.


Technique 1: Stereoscopic/Stereoscopy photography


This is the technique of creating or augmenting the illusion of depth within an image through stereopsis. Any stereoscopic image is called a stereogram. When the stereogram was first invented, it was commonly referred to as a pair of images which could only be seen through a stereoscope.


Most stereoscopic techniques show two separate images, one on the left and on the right eye of the viewer of the image. The two images which are two-dimensional are combined in the brain which gives the illusion and perception of 3D depth to the image. 



Stereoscopic 3D photography is not easy. You firstly have to choose a subject to capture. However, as a photographer you are limited as to what you can shoot. Things you could shoot include landscapes, architecture and even people but only if they are motionless.

Technique 2: Wiggle-grams/Stereographs

This is the technique of animated images which simulate a 3D effect by endlessly looping two or more frames or images of a specific subject from different angles or points of view. This sense of 3/d or depth from such images is all down to parallax. In comparison to other stereo display techniques, the images are shown to both eyes rather than a singular image being shown to each eye. With wiggle-grams, viewers do not need any special hardware or glasses to view the image.

Wigglegram/ 3D GIF (Digital Final)

For my digital final outcome, I decided to produce a GIF/ Wigglegram out of 2 or more still images to create what seems a stereoscopic 3D animated image. My first attempt at creating a stereoscopic 3D animated image did not go so well, because I took 3 images of a subject with three different camera in different positions around the subject to capture each angle, so when turned into a looping GIF it would make it seem like it was animated to simulate a 3D look. However, this was no the case. The first thing that made it unsuccessful was the fact that I used two of my fellow classmates to push the shutter release button at the same time, but person took the shot at separate times including me. These shots can be seen below. As you can also see, the exposures were not the same for each image and the getting the subject to jump was not a great idea as it is very hard to capture this image at the same time from three different camera. Below is my unsuccessful a...

Analog 3D Photography

Analog 3D photography is a form of photography that uses a continuously changing recording medium such as   chemical processes to produce images that give the perception of 3D. This captures images by exposing the photographic film to light as opposed to digitally via a sensor. Technique 1: Liquid Light Liquid Photographic Emulsion or best known as Liquid Light is a silver based sensitiser which is designed for applying onto any surface, exposing with an enlarger and processing in the darkroom chemistry. The emulsion that is found within liquid light is pretty much the same emulsion that can be found within light sensitive photographic paper. Liquid light can be applied to a large array of 2D and 3D surfaces. The good thing about using liquid light is that you are able to freely produce images on the materials of your liking.  https://www.silverprint.co.uk/liquid-light-se1-emulsion/  https://www.pinterest.co.uk/pin/4714002...
