Abstract

A stereoscopic motion picture sequence comprises a first channel of sequential images intended for viewing by one of a viewer's left and right eyes and a second channel of sequential images intended for viewing by the other one of the viewer's left and right eyes. Each image in each channel comprises primary image content representing a scene consisting of a plurality of elements and 'temporal shadow' image content. The temporal shadow image content in a first image comprises a degraded and/or partially transparent image of at least one element of the primary image content corresponding to a view of said at least one element as seen in the primary image content of a second image from the first or second channel. The temporal shadow images provide additional cognitive cues assisting the viewer's perception of the stereoscopic image sequence as having 3D depth. The temporal shadows may be used to augment conventional stereoscopic motion pictures and are particularly useful in relation to pseudo-stereoscopic 'time parallax' motion pictures derived from a 2D motion picture sequence by duplicating the original motion picture sequence in two (left and right) channels and applying a relative lateral displacement and relative time delay to the duplicated channels. Methods and systems for producing such motion picture sequences are also described, together with a modified display screen (or motion picture sequence) having a border pattern incorporating irregular protruding edge details
