In an exemplary embodiment, a method for producing a stereo film is provided, wherein a first image that is supplied () by a first camera rig having at least two cameras is followed () by a second image from a second camera rig, wherein furthermore a disparity table for definition of the displacement of a defined image point in a first sub-frame supplied by a first camera of the first camera rig relative to an image point similar thereto in a second sub-frame supplied by a second camera of the first camera rig is determined () in order to obtain information about the depth of the first image composed of the first sub-frame and the second sub-frame, wherein the depth information of the disparity table of the first image of the first camera rig is used () for processing of the second image of the second camera rig. The invention also relates to controlling (means) or regulating means for a plurality of 3D cameras configured to carry out said method.

Method for smoothing transitions between scenes of a stereo film and controlling or regulating a plurality of 3D cameras

A method of aligning the optical axes of two cameras, wherein the cameras are parts of a camera apparatus and the two cameras can be used for producing 3D films, wherein plural steps are automatically run through. The invention also relates to a method of controlling a camera rig comprising two cameras for producing 3D films according to the table of values according to such method, wherein during shooting upon zooming at least one camera is automatically moved via camera motors. The invention also relates to a camera rig comprising two cameras that are preferably juxtaposed or superimposed having a control which realizes a method as explained.
