I've linked some of the most important tools and resources that I used to help create this in the description, and I will definitely think about creating a tutorial in the near future :D
PLEASE strongly consider making a tutorial! I've been super curious about this but I knew developing the method would be a huge time investment. Even if you crudely covered the basics it could save others SO much time. Even if you don't though.. This was super rad man. Well done!
the more images u put the more blurry it gets, you need a sheet with higher LPI to get a crisp image, you dont get blur in 2 images since the sheet itself forces you to shift your view, however the more images you cram in there the darker the images also appear even though they arent, if you want to get high quality looking results, raise the brightness of your images, avoid small details, form over detail is what gives great results with these
Yeah I would love to try an experiment with even higher LPI at some point! I was surprised by how much detail was still visible in the desk scene, but I totally agree that the simpler images like the car work way better :D
Unfortunately, I don't remember the title. This was way back in the 90s. If I knew I'd probably have ordered a copy from someone's collection or a library refurbish. @@eclat4641
My favorite was the bullet shattering the glass tbh. I liked the concept while a bit "rough" the movement and rewind time functionality aspect of it was cool. Also agree a bigger style poster would be amazing.
Yeah I did like that one, I think it was just that the frames blended together a bit too much which kinda ruined the effect. But the time warp was really fun to play with and probably should have tried more of those!
the cool thing about these is that because the image shown depends on the angle you're viewing it at, it provides two different images/viewing angles for each eye, resulting in full stereoscopic 3d and real perceived depth.
Can’t wait for your next tutorial. You have described what I went through with lenticular printing. 4 printers , vertical/horizontal sheets, 4 x 6, 8 x 10, cant’ remember how many different lenticular lines, softwares, tutorials, youtubers, you name it. Money spent. And so many hours, one year, gave it up. Will give it another try with your help!
I thought of doing this years and years ago, even looking up sources for the lenticular sheets, but I quickly realized how tricky it would be and moved on. It's cool that someone actually saw it through.
The ideas for these videos are so unique, underrated, original, and entertaining! I would say that the more use of cut scenes in your videos like going from you talking to what your talking about, maybe camera movements maybe different backgrounds like recording on your porch and then cutting the audio, but lots of transitions in videos keep the audience engaged, I can see that in every one of your videos you have been getting better and better at editing! Great job!!
Not to rain on this guy's parade, but I saw fully animated versions of these in stores over ten years ago. There was a horse galloping, and a penguin doing.. Something.
@@tahunuva4254 what do you mean by fully animated? when you were looking from side to side it was animating or there was some sort of video playing that you were able to look at from different angles?
@@Daniel_VolumeDown The former. It was pretty smooth too, if memory serves correctly, around 10-ish frames in total. This was in Europe tho, so they might not have been produced in the US
Yeah using more than 2 images for a 3D effect is not new. It's one of the standard variations when you Google lenticular prints over the decades. There are some youtubers like Michael Brown are dedicated to teaching lenticulars (ready-made apps, special camera and printing techniques like this are covered)
You can use Photoshop as well, using masks to create the interlaced images. I came across this video because I'm working on my own lenticular prints, not with 12 images, just 3 for now. I think the car example turned out really great. In my mind, lenticular images give a 2d image just a little bit of depth, but the idea of even more depth never crossed my mind....
Hey man! If you still remember how you did after 8 months lol, would you mind sharing your calculations for using 3 images in photoshop ? I still have no idea on how you can possibly do in ps. I'm a student and trying to do a cool but budget project with lenticular sheets!
You can also take 3D shots using your camera, you just need to slide it horizontally. You can also create hyper perspective by taking photos of distant mountains, for example, from several viewpoints that might be spread out over 10m or more.
@@iamsushi1056 It's pretty much just as he says. Ideally you want to move the camera by the distance between your eyes but I found just taking a step to the right good enough.
@@iamsushi1056 I’d suggest starting making red/cyan 3D photos in Photoshop, it’s very easy to blend the layers, switching off the relevant colour channels, to get instant results. You have to be a little careful in aligning the two shots, they obviously need to be perfectly horizontal, but it’s also helpful if they’re both converging on the same subject, especially if it’s close (your eyes naturally converge).
Giving one of these for a small birthday gift would be the best gift ever because they could just keep it on their desk and get mesmerised by the animation like movement of the picture
That remind me of zebra holographics plates. This is astonishing that you managed to do it by yourself and frustrating from their part because they did something outragously interesting but nothing more in years ! For almost 10 years i was dreaming of '3d' posters doable with all in one solution from A to Z (including apps, sheats, lenticular stickers, or even personal printers specialized for that purpose). I liked your video a lot, thanks for that keen research and time spent on it !
Love this so much! I def wanna try and will be back here when I inevitably get stuck and have questions! I recently made my first lenticular art of my first dance with my wife. I used photoshop to line up two photos and then used the Walgreens service you referenced to print it for me and now I feel like the possibilities are endless!
Blown away with the car one. That would be an excellent poster for the end of a hallway. Ideally a T intersecting hallway. If I find myself with a wall and as I described. I will 100% do that
In the 1990s my parents had a camera that would take 3D pictures, the company that made the camera also developed the prints. It used this same technique.
You have 5.6K subs and you put out this video? It honestly looked as good as a video from a 2mil channel. I know this is not some super high tech thing but these "holograms" have always fascinated me as a kid. Very nicely done. Was super fun to watch you figuring this out :)
Something I'd try is distorting the camera perspective to better match the shape the print would take up at that angle from a viewer's perspective, since the perspective warping present when rotating the prints is a bit distracting, and distorting it in a way that counters the distortion could help.
My Man, you truly are a DIAMOND in UA-cam, you're so creative, passionate, entertaining and passionate about everything revolving around this UA-cam channel; I can't believe you have such small audience, for such great content. Best of wishes my man, truly in love with what you're doing.
I messed around with this back in the 90s, and early 2000s. Lots of mistakes were made. Wrong sized lenticles, incorrect print resolutions, you name it. But it was still fun, I did manage to get one good image to line up. It is extremely tricky to get lenticular lens to align just right. LOL Thanks for sharing this.
Wow! that was really mind blowing. I saw many Lectingullar images in touristic shops, but I ve never saw such a process before. You are a very genius scientist. Congratulations for your amazing discoveries! 👍👍👍 you have a new subscriber to your channel.
damn bro i just woke up thinking in this exactly idea!!! im a brazillian graphic designer (sorry for my english haha) that works with blender and graphic design. For me, this has a great potencial for brand value! Thank you for sharing your tests and methods
It would be cool to match the angle of rotation in the 3D render image, with the angle that you have to look at the picture in real life, so it would really seem more realistic
Wow, so this was what you were planning to do next in 3D. This is actually a really cool use of lenticular photos! I did not know that much about them until now. Great job!
Thanks!! Haha yeah my computer was definitely struggling with some of the renders (especially the outro one). But yeah I think lenticular photos are so cool, but I don’t feel like people utilize 3D software to get some of those effects very often
@@sam-beige Yeah I imagine it did haha! it seems like you really know your way around Blender with all the custom models you created. Yes, they can make awesome pictures and bookmarks. You are actually the first person I've seen make something like this in 3D!
I feel like I still have so much to learn lol, but I did the classic donut tutorial a couple years ago and then just random projects here and there ever since. But I think it’s so cool especially for being completely free! That sounds awesome, a bookmark to go along with a specific book would be so cool! Haha should have talked to you about that before, would have been cool to include in the video!
@@sam-beige Same actually! I did his donut tutorial too a few years ago! Yeah Blender is quite the tool belt for a free program. Yes haha! If you figure out to make one for your secret compartment books or something else that would be really cool.
Oh yeah, very nice experience, good work sir! I tried that several years ago and the maximum number of images I've been able to combine was 5. To do that, I placed a simple object I centered on a turn table, and I used a high-resolution camera with a very narrow view angle (300 mm lens) I took a few pictures with a little rotation difference between them. Then I created a tram to digitally independently slice every image to use in strips; each has a number, from 001 to the number of each lenticular section, so because I had 5 images by every lens. I then put all which has the same number on a colon under the lense. My printer was able to print up to 1200 DPI BTW. The alignment of the print under the lenticular sheets was not an easy task. It was so time-consuming, I only did 3 images. In the industrial plans who does that in large quantity, I think they have special tools for the alignment. Anyway, to me it was a challenge I have no intention to repeat it lol. It was fun at the end, but very frustration to figure out how to do those. So, I have total respect for your experiments, I know from firsthand experience how difficult it is.
Vendo esse video me veio a mente uma exposição de fotografias holograficas que fui conhecer aqui no Rio nos anos 90, até hoje fico impressionado com o que ví, fotos de objetos tão reais que a gente tinha até vontade de segurar de tão perfeito, como um revolver sobre a mesa, ou um microscópio e era tão real que a intenção de olhar no ocular era certa!! Não entendo o porque a holografia não é mais explorada nos dias atuais, pois até hoje ainda não ví nada em termos de 3D que o superasse!
Your video is really fun! When Shrek appeared, I was drinking water and ended up with water all over my desk haha! Thank you! Thanks to your video inspiration, I want to use Blender to create my own card. Your car card looks really cool. I really want to create one myself. I sent you an email and used GPT to help me with the translation. I hope you can feel my love for your video! I wish your channel more and more success!!🤩🤩🤩
As an 80s kid, i subconsciously collect lenticular images, stickers,postcards and thought it was expensive to d.i.y., thabk you so much for sharing your project videos 🙏🏽
yay! Challenge accepted. I just bought the largest& thinest light box I could find, a fake window frame, and some courtains. If you think is a cool content idea please use it :D
When time allows, I should be able to make some interlacing software, as I have a need for it too, and it would be a fun challenge. I just need to know what features are needed for it to be useful for lenticular applications. Blender supports rendering interlaced stereoscopic images, but that's only for the L/R perspectives as far as I know. (I use that feature when modeling by sending the 3D view to my stereoscopic monitor while using the 2D monitor for the main Blender window)
@@BrickcasterI'm pretty sure that's what I used when I was playing with the lenticular stuff a while back. You could generate a mask by tiling one white and one black pixel and merge the pictures by adding. That's about all I remember about it but there's enough info in the imagemagick docs to get it done.
Kudos for seeing this through Sam! I myself bought Lenticular foil almost year ago, tried it with printed images few times, failed and gave up. You motivated me now to try harder and make it work. Thank you for that, man. P.S. where did you get calibration sheet? That looks really usefull.
That’s awesome that you gave it a shot, I was definitely close to giving up many times when it wasn’t working. But then once you get it it’s pretty magical! For the calibration sheet, I generated it using the software from 3Dependable.com. It’s a free trial where a pitch test is the only unlocked feature, although there were still some weird settings I had to play around with. I hope you’re able to try again and let me know if you have any other questions!!
Do you have a method for making a stereoscopic version using just 2 images? I would love to make a poster sized version that can display left-eye and right-eye images from a comfortable distance. Seems doable but probably more complicated than I think haha
Really cool. I felt like this stuff was peak quality as kid toys. I also weirdly enjoyed how it felt, like scratching the Batman dvd case lol. I wonder if it's possible to create some kind of looping cylinder, mechanical thing, unless any kind of slight bending totally ruins it. In that case, maybe more of a conveyor belt type of rig.
That's really cool, love the deskscene you created. Have you tried filming something, like orbiting your face with a fast shutterspeed so there's no blur, and print that out? Could be cool too! yeaarss ago i worked on lenticular TV's. we would make content for a screen that had a similar lens on it, and we had to render out 9 different angles, and that way you could watch it basically on a 3D screen without using glasses. that could maybe be fun video too to do! that you put that big lens sheet you have on a screen and make an animated 3D video :)
Thanks Edwin! Yeah I'll have to try with photos sometime, lining everything up seemed like a big challenge :) And those TVs sound super cool, I think an animated version of this kinda thing would be really neat to see!
That's great! Have you thought about fly-eye lens sheets for both horizontal and vertical parallax motion? I've only seen a few old examples on youtube. Would love for that to be revived.
Yeah, those are really interesting! I'd love to try making something with that lens at some point, but it seems to have even less information on it than lenticular lenses lol
Reminds me of this novelty lenticular ruler I own that's hiding somewhere - where it had like a bunch of mannequin figures doing little animation loops like unicycling, jumping jacks, etc.
This was the best demonstration of the possibilities of lenticular printing I've seen. Thanks for sharing! I'm curious what software do you use for the interlacing step? *Edit:* looks like you chose Grape 4.3 based on your screenshot at 2:24. Thanks!
@@sam-beige Yes! I'm going to first try with frames from video where the camera revolves around the subject (since my 3D skills are non-existent). Calibration is the first challenge.
That sounds awesome! I'd love to check it out when you finish it if you post it anywhere! And yeah, the calibration was tricky to figure out, but let me know if you have any other questions :D
@@mckamey thank you for the information discussed, I'm trying to learn all I can first so that I could integrate a lenticular lense into another project of mine cause I believe it will add a beautiful layer of complexity to the result
Hi guys. Wow, this video really got me inspired! Do you guys have the methodology written somewhere so people can refer to? My questions are more like, what are the specs of the printer? Most importantly, how did you end up on that spec. What were the procedures of testing? And finally any recommendations of place to buy at a good cost?
You can get the lens from an old laptop screen even if the screen is cracked that's just the LCD that screen cracked. That film is used to decrease and spread the light behind the LCD screen equally throughout the LCD. The only other difference could be the thickness that you're actually looking for.
you are very talented brother! both your projects and video editing ideas are fresh air to me on youtube land. for your next project , please consider making a more detailed tutorial on teaching us fellow hobbyist step by step on how to make one of those master pieces you created, thanks in advance!
Hey thanks so much for the comment and encouragement! I actually just published a video and definitely didn’t do a very good job of making much of a tutorial out of it (whoops 😬) but I appreciate the callout. I’ll have to think through how I can balance that or maybe list out my supplies better in the future (at the moment it’s just me so getting each video out the door as is can be a challenge by itself haha)
@@sam-beige you are doing fantastic just on your own, i really appreciate your style even if it is not a formal tutorial, i am sure you can also do a great job if you wish to make a tutorial in the future about any of your projects. God bless you my friend!

Finally god added depth of field to some textures that needed that
Nice work! I love lenticular blu-ray covers (especially for 3D movies) so this was special to see
omg I'm making a fake window in my basement with a lightbox and THIS is exactly what I need to make a loop of a backyard-looking window :DDDD
That sounds like a really cool project!! Such a good idea!
yay! Challenge accepted. I just bought the largest& thinest light box I could find, a fake window frame, and some courtains. If you think is a cool content idea please use it :D
When time allows, I should be able to make some interlacing software, as I have a need for it too, and it would be a fun challenge. I just need to know what features are needed for it to be useful for lenticular applications.
Blender supports rendering interlaced stereoscopic images, but that's only for the L/R perspectives as far as I know. (I use that feature when modeling by sending the 3D view to my stereoscopic monitor while using the 2D monitor for the main Blender window)
I bet imagemagick could do it with a simple script. It excels at these kinds of tasks.
@@BrickcasterI'm pretty sure that's what I used when I was playing with the lenticular stuff a while back. You could generate a mask by tiling one white and one black pixel and merge the pictures by adding. That's about all I remember about it but there's enough info in the imagemagick docs to get it done.
Kudos for seeing this through Sam! I myself bought Lenticular foil almost year ago, tried it with printed images few times, failed and gave up. You motivated me now to try harder and make it work. Thank you for that, man. P.S. where did you get calibration sheet? That looks really usefull.
That’s awesome that you gave it a shot, I was definitely close to giving up many times when it wasn’t working. But then once you get it it’s pretty magical! For the calibration sheet, I generated it using the software from 3Dependable.com. It’s a free trial where a pitch test is the only unlocked feature, although there were still some weird settings I had to play around with. I hope you’re able to try again and let me know if you have any other questions!!
@@sam-beige Thanks for the calibration sheet info. I am going to try it again.
agreed, more ones like the car would be so cool as a poster!!
That is rad!
Really appreciate it!! 😊
Amazing,Look at the world from a different perspective
wow man, your content is so well edited and explained, insta-subscribed! 😁
Thank you so much, that means a lot!!
Yoooo I remember when you only had 800 subscribers you have grown so much congrats
Yeah it’s been crazy, thanks so much!!
UNDERRATED ASF! This was so cool to see, the car one I would actually want as a poster if I could, very unique idea which deserves more than it got.
This is the coolest thing I've ever saw
Already dude went to 2k and ive been doing for 2-3 months and i onky got 13 subs lol , keep being amazing sam!
Aw really appreciate it! Most of that growth was in the last month, so sometimes it just takes working at it for a while
@@sam-beige dont sweat it mate i enjoy your content and kinda try making my own
This is really awsome. It be interesting to see what you could do with one wrapped around a cylinder.
OMG this is absolutely genius. I always wanted to make those harry potter cards ( the one with chocolate frogs) thank you for inspiring 💖
I can’t be the only one who had a skateboard deck with that effect on. Makes Such a cool sound aswell
Do you have a method for making a stereoscopic version using just 2 images? I would love to make a poster sized version that can display left-eye and right-eye images from a comfortable distance. Seems doable but probably more complicated than I think haha
Really cool. I felt like this stuff was peak quality as kid toys. I also weirdly enjoyed how it felt, like scratching the Batman dvd case lol. I wonder if it's possible to create some kind of looping cylinder, mechanical thing, unless any kind of slight bending totally ruins it. In that case, maybe more of a conveyor belt type of rig.
oh damn, imaging seeing 3d billboards haha
Haha that would be cool! I haven't seen billboards but I have seen street level signs that move as you walk by
Bro, the Shrek and the car one in a poster would be just amazing!
That's really cool, love the deskscene you created. Have you tried filming something, like orbiting your face with a fast shutterspeed so there's no blur, and print that out? Could be cool too! yeaarss ago i worked on lenticular TV's. we would make content for a screen that had a similar lens on it, and we had to render out 9 different angles, and that way you could watch it basically on a 3D screen without using glasses. that could maybe be fun video too to do! that you put that big lens sheet you have on a screen and make an animated 3D video :)
Thanks Edwin! Yeah I'll have to try with photos sometime, lining everything up seemed like a big challenge :) And those TVs sound super cool, I think an animated version of this kinda thing would be really neat to see!
@@sam-beige 🤗 🤗
This turned out really amazing
Excellent videos dude! Great quality, good pacing, and I really appreciate the short length! Subscribed immediately!
Thanks!!! Yeah I try to balance making them informative and entertaining, but still learning a lot 😄 Glad you enjoyed and really appreciate the sub!
Perfect this is what i was looking for thanks
You are champ
I have a book with one of those images which made a fully 3d looking image and it's pretty cool
You may have very well created Timelord art.
The car one and the rose are my faves 😁
Wow you already hit 1000 subs i remember when I was your 50th subscriber
Yeah it’s kinda crazy! Thank you so much for helping me make it happen 😄
That is awesome, now to master vertical as well as horizontal movement, no idea if it is possible,
This is one of the most amazing projects I’ve ever seen.
That's so nice of you to say!! :D
That's great! Have you thought about fly-eye lens sheets for both horizontal and vertical parallax motion? I've only seen a few old examples on youtube. Would love for that to be revived.
Yeah, those are really interesting! I'd love to try making something with that lens at some point, but it seems to have even less information on it than lenticular lenses lol
I remember in school there was this one shark book that had a 3-D shark on it it was so cool
Reminds me of this novelty lenticular ruler I own that's hiding somewhere - where it had like a bunch of mannequin figures doing little animation loops like unicycling, jumping jacks, etc.
Your so underrated dude remember me when your famous! It's unbelievable how you only have 4k ;).
Really appreciate it!! And will do 😊
This is amazing! Congrats on 1k! I was subbed to you when you had 30 subscribers!
Thanks! And that’s so cool that you were there at 30!! The growth has been so amazing, and thank you so much for the support ❤️
This is so awesome. I have no words, so cool, wish you could make a tutorial)
This was the best demonstration of the possibilities of lenticular printing I've seen. Thanks for sharing!
I'm curious what software do you use for the interlacing step?
*Edit:* looks like you chose Grape 4.3 based on your screenshot at 2:24. Thanks!
Thank you so much!! Yeah I used Grape which worked out great! Are you planning on making some?
@@sam-beige Yes! I'm going to first try with frames from video where the camera revolves around the subject (since my 3D skills are non-existent). Calibration is the first challenge.
That sounds awesome! I'd love to check it out when you finish it if you post it anywhere! And yeah, the calibration was tricky to figure out, but let me know if you have any other questions :D
@@mckamey thank you for the information discussed, I'm trying to learn all I can first so that I could integrate a lenticular lense into another project of mine cause I believe it will add a beautiful layer of complexity to the result
Hi guys. Wow, this video really got me inspired! Do you guys have the methodology written somewhere so people can refer to? My questions are more like, what are the specs of the printer? Most importantly, how did you end up on that spec. What were the procedures of testing? And finally any recommendations of place to buy at a good cost?
You can get the lens from an old laptop screen even if the screen is cracked that's just the LCD that screen cracked. That film is used to decrease and spread the light behind the LCD screen equally throughout the LCD. The only other difference could be the thickness that you're actually looking for.
Would you ever consider doing a full tutorial on making one of these prints?
I have no idea if the technology would even work, but a lenticular display that you could change the images behind it would be trippy.
you are very talented brother! both your projects and video editing ideas are fresh air to me on youtube land. for your next project , please consider making a more detailed tutorial on teaching us fellow hobbyist step by step on how to make one of those master pieces you created, thanks in advance!
Hey thanks so much for the comment and encouragement! I actually just published a video and definitely didn’t do a very good job of making much of a tutorial out of it (whoops 😬) but I appreciate the callout. I’ll have to think through how I can balance that or maybe list out my supplies better in the future (at the moment it’s just me so getting each video out the door as is can be a challenge by itself haha)
@@sam-beige you are doing fantastic just on your own, i really appreciate your style even if it is not a formal tutorial, i am sure you can also do a great job if you wish to make a tutorial in the future about any of your projects. God bless you my friend!
