Abstract:
1. A method for generating a stereoscopic 3D multimedia work from at least one item of 2D input material, comprising the steps of: (a) accessing computer storage wherein is stored at least one stereoscopic 3D theme, each of said at least one stereoscopic 3D themes having a predetermined number of 2D placeholders associated therewith; (b) receiving a selection from a user of at least one stereoscopic 3D theme from among said at least one stored stereoscopic 3D themes, said selected stereoscopic 3D theme having a plurality of 2D placeholders associated therewith; (c) selecting at least two 2D digital media items; (d) assigning each of said at least two selected 2D digital media items to a different one of said plurality of 2D placeholders associated with said selected stereoscopic 3D theme; (e) creating a stereoscopic 3D multimedia work from said selected stereoscopic 3D theme and said assigned at least two selected 2D digital media items; (f) selecting at least one stereoscopic 3D nature effect for application to said selected stereoscopic 3D theme; (g) applying said selected stereoscopic 3D nature effect to said selected stereoscopic 3D theme, thereby generating said stereoscopic 3D multimedia work; (h) displaying said stereoscopic 3D multimedia work on a stereoscopic 3D display device.
