Claim:
1. An apparatus for generating 3-Dimensional (3D) video data, the apparatus comprising: one or more video input units configured to generate video frames based on one or more images received through one or more image sensors, and generate shooting information including shooting characteristics of the video frames, wherein the shooting characteristics include a distance from a subject, a shooting angle or one or more movements of the one or more video input units; a 3D video frame generator configured to: a 3D video frame encoder configured to: a composition information checker configured to check 3D video composition information including the shooting information, the 3D video frame composition information, and the resolution control information; and a 3D video data generator configured to: wherein the first top-bottom type indicates that the 3D video frame is composed in a top-bottom type by adjusting a resolution of the 3D video frame, wherein the second top-bottom type indicates that the 3D video frame is composed in the top-bottom type without adjusting a resolution of the 3D video frame, wherein the first side-by-side type indicates that the 3D video frame is composed in a side-by-side type by adjusting a resolution of the 3D video frame, and wherein the second side-by-side type indicates that the 3D video frame is composed in the side-by-side type without adjusting a resolution of the 3D video frame.
