Stereoscopic Workflow in Action

A stereoscopic workflow in Action allows you to create stereo composites using 3D and stereo elements. With the stereo camera rig (the 3D camera), you can access stereo rigs and monoscopic cameras. With support for multiple outputs, you can experiment with any number of passes, including left and right scene output, as well as normals, Z-Depth, matte, media matte, and composition outputs.

When working in a stereoscopic compositing workflow in Action, there are three essential elements: a stereo camera, a stereo object for viewing and adjusting the result, and outputs. The following table outlines the stereoscopic workflow in Action.

Step: Refer to:
1. Bring stereo clips into Action. Starting a Stereoscopic Session.
2. Work with the stereo camera and stereo object to make any adjustments to the scene. Action 3D Cameras and Working with the Stereo Scene.
3. Output various passes of your work. About Rendering Outputs from Action.
Note: Since Action as a timeline FX uses only one front/matte media, stereo clips are not supported. If you need to work with stereo clips, access Action from Batch or Batch FX, or from the Tools menu.
