What are the best 3d glasses to use for 3d movies? I just watched My Bloody Valentine 3d with the typical green and red 3d glasses. It didn't look so good ( which I expected) and I wanted to know if there are any better 3d glasses to use for these movies so that you can enjoy them. I went to imax and the 3d movie there looked nicer, I am not sure if it was the 3d glasses or just the over all quality of the movie and the glasses put together. Thanks!
How will 3d stereoscopic movies be released to the public? I'm looking to make a home theater system with a projector, but I'm excited about the prospect of the 3d stereoscopic movies in my home. Will the 3d systems be based on the player or the screen? Should I anticipate buying a 3d capable blu-ray player or a 3d capable projector?
How does 3D vision work with one eye compared to two eyes? I've read that the brain can calculate 3D by taking two images from two eyes and comparing them. However, 3D works perfectly fine with one eye. Surely this "Binocular vision" is pointless if the brain can calculate 3D perfectly fine with one eye. Does the brain just guess or is there some other trick involved? I notice eyes individually focus. So the brain could calculate the amount of blur and work out the distance that way?
How do I combine 3d objects with a live action scene? Using blender to create a 3d object and after effects for motion tracking, how could I combine the two? Is there any way to export 3d objects to After Effects from Blender? Do I need to bring the movie into blender, and if so is there any way of motion tracking? Say, for example, I have a scene of a table and the camera tracks around it. I create a 3d mug in blender. What next if I want to put the mug on the table in the scene?

How does the new 3d polarization technology work? I just saw a 3d movie and wondered how it works. I know the theory behind it i just don't know how the movie theater does it. What does a 3d cinema look like? Do they use two separate projectors to overlap the images?
What is the best 3D Program for animation to be used for making movies? I am very serious about making movies and although I have made some good movies using After Effects and all, I'm ready to expand my knowledge and get into animation. I've heard of a bunch of 3D Programs such as Milkshape and Autodesk 3D Max. What's the best stuff available for a budget under $1000?

I have created the 3d characters with Maya & Motionbuilder and will be using Adobe for all the video editing. What programs can I use to place the 3d characters into live action film? Can After Effect do that? Also any websites or articles with info about this procedure. Thanks for help.
How does 3d vision in the real world REALLY work? The usual explanation for our 3d vision is that, having 2 eyes, the crossed result of their slightly different vision creates the 3d effect. However, if I close one eye, I don't experience any sudden flattening of my vision; nor I think that one-eyed people have problems perceiving depth, do they? So, what's the REAL mechanism behind 3d vision?

What are the best 3D movies currently available on Blu Ray? We *had* a non-3D LCD TV that died on us under warranty and, of course, the model is no longer made, so we were given a 3D LED TV as a replacement. Eager to try out the new 3D now available, we're trying to figure out which movie would be best to start with. We've all already seen Avatar in 2D twice, so we don't want to watch it again just for the sake of seeing it in 3D. Any other suggestions? Thanks!

Some molecules will have the and some will have both or only one. I feel like my book didn't give an explanation about this at all but just expected me to know it from the start. Thank you.
What's the easiest way for me to create a quick 3D game prototype? I would do all the 3D art but I'm zero in programming. I'm wondering if there is something like GameMaker for 3D environments - with draggable behaviours and the sorts. So I can make a quick sample of a 3D model running around in an environment and interacting with it, without calling a developer. Note: I use Cinema, MAX and Lightwave for the 3D modelling. I obviously need to import boned animations, textures, and possibly lighting.
What is the best 3d graphics program to start with? What do most people use for 3d design? It has to be simple enough to learn by messing around but still usable to make high quality stuff once you get some experience. Sort of like Photoshop is for image manipulation.
How to make a 3D model from 2D images from different angles? I want to take several pictures of something (anything, a box, a cup), and make a 3D model from it. I have seen programs that do this but you need calibration stands and all this other stuff. I would prefer one that does it (somewhat) automatically, although I would not mind doing things like placing points on the objects. Thanks I also have some extra details, The program VideoTrace makes 3D models from Video, I just want something like that but for pictures, ev.en If I have to manually add the points to the Image.
How can I tell if a movie theater is a 3D theater? Me and some friends are planning to see Up tomorrow, and I'm trying to get a time and location. We want to see it in 3D (It's only 3D in select theaters) and I was wondering how I can tell if a theater is 3D without calling/emailing them. Thanks.
How does one shoot stereoscopic 3D the right way? I'm planning on setting up a side by side camera rig to shoot 3D, but I'm unsure as to whether the cameras are supposed to remain static when you are shooting objects at different distances, or when you move the camera closer/farther from an object. Are the cameras supposed to converge like your eyes do, or do you just keep the cameras the way they are?
How come animated movies and 3D movies always get such a high rating? I never could understand this. There is over 20 animated and 3D movies on IMDB's top 250, its like every one that comes out is up there for at least a year or so. All 3 Toy Stories are on there, out of all the thousands and thousands of good movies how did those 3 take up room on the best 250? Even on RottenTomatoes, they have Toy Story 2 as the best movie of all time.. Toy Story 1 is 4th best movie of all time.

What is the best program to use when starting 3d graphic design? Hey, I want to get started in 3d graphic design and I would like to know what the best program to use is. I know that there's Blender, but it seems to be not just designing since you need Python code to run it. (Don't even mention using Blender please. I know all about it and it is not what I want) I don't want to use Python. I just want an open-source program just for 3d graphic design.

Where can I use my Disney Digital 3D glasses on the internet? I just saw Beowulf with these new 3D glasses with clear lenses instead of the usual red and blue ones. They worked better than any 3D movie I have ever seen before, and my eyes didn't hurt afterward and I didn't have a headache. I want to use them to watch something else, but it seems that every video on YouTube uses the old red and blue graphics. Does anyone know any websites that might have videos that can be watched with clear lensed 3D glasses?
Why do electrons go into the 4s orbital before the 3d? Why do electrons go into the 4s orbital before the 3d? A. The 3d electrons screen the 4s, making it lower in energy. B. The polarizability of the atom makes 3d higher in energy than 4s. C. 3d electrons repel each other more than 4s electrons do. D. Because there are more d-orbitals than s-orbitals, they are higher in energy. E. The s-orbital is more penetrating than the d-orbital, making it closer to the nucleus and lower in energy.
How do I convert a 3d object into a 3d display on my web page.? Say I create a 3d object in blender 3d, maya, or 3d studio max.

Is it possible to find the detailed dimensions of fighter (Mirage) aircraft online for a 3D modelling project? We have a 3D Solid Edge modelling college project for this semester, and need detailed dimensions to produce the aircraft in 3D. We have a 3D Solid Edge modelling college project for this semester, and need detailed dimensions to produce the aircraft in 3D. We need dimensions stated explicitly, because it'll be almost impossible to measure the surface curvatures from 2D drawings. Even slight errors in measured values would result in the different parts not fitting with each other in the final model.
What degree should I get to be a 3d animator? I have thought about working as a 3d animator, when I get older. And want to know what degree should I get. Or a better one might be: is there even a 3d animation degree specifically? Could anyone also recommend any good 4-year universities with this kind of degree?
How Do I Make a 3D Cake of a Dove and a Raven? I don't know how possible this would be, or if I could do something similar. But I want to make a 3D cake with a dove and a raven in some sort of pose, and sitting in 'water'. I would also like to make it as detailed as possible, so a way to scult the feathers and such would be great. It needs to be 90% edible, any size really. What materials, equipment, etc could I use? And how would I actually make it? Here are some examples of poses and composition, it isn't exactly what was in my head, but kind of close. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v691/ChocoboDragon/cake.jpg Or if the poses have to be more simple or whatever, please let me know. When I say cake, it probably doesn't need to be all cake as such, but really any dessert type thing that may be appropriate.
How do i create a 3d Model that can be rotated etc in a web browser? I would like to be able to create 3d files and place them within a website where the customer can rotate, zoom, maybe activate a few simple animations.

Is there a program that works kind of like 3D Home Architect, that allows you to create 3D Landscapes? I don't mean anything like 3D Home Architect or 3D Landscape Design. I'm talking about something like 3DS Max or Maya. Programs that can create 3D Environments, but more for beginners, for people who don't know how to create a 3D Modelled Environment, where all the templates are already built in, you would just have to pick the terrain, pick what you want in it, select the time of day, then it would do the rest. Anything out there like that?
