An anaglyph Still Motion collection

Collection of anaglyph Red/Cyan 3D-images, time 3:34 Klick HERE to see this in YouTube, please, klick a HD-symbol to see this in HD-format. Here we go again. I made a collection of anaglyph Red/cyan images and turned it to a Still Motion movie file. This time I used a freeware, Picasa 3 and its Movie maker module to add the Zoom & Pan effect.
You'll need Red/Cyan Eyeglasses to be able to see images right. Note, if you have a Red and Green filters, you can use them! Red goes to Left eye.

This was an interesting test. I tested how 3D-anaglyph images might work as a Still Motion movie files. 'They simply work! This will give a new life to 3D-images, it'll kind of adds a "fourth dimension" to images. I used a Sony Vegas evaluation version to add the Zoom & Pan feature to still images. How ever, there was a problem with video conversion in YouTube. For some reason it courses chosting in the movie. Original version has no chosting effect at all.

I tested an evaluation version of Sony Vegas video editor to create this effect.
Windows movie maker is a free option to do this, but effects are not parametric, so there is not enough user control for a  good result.

This is a good way to show actual resolution of a picture, there is not much point to publish full resolution version of an image due the huge size.
