Abstract
There is provided a system and method for a three-dimensional video capture workflow for dynamic rendering. There is provided a method of generating three-dimensional video data comprising obtaining two-dimensional video data from a scene having a plurality of objects, identifying objects in the scene, obtaining relative positions of the plurality of objects, encoding the two-dimensional video data to generate encoded two-dimensional video data, generating relative positions metadata based on the relative positions of the plurality of objects, and providing a three-dimensional depth factor metadata for operation on the relative positions metadata. In this manner, existing two-dimensional workflows may be utilized in a cost effective manner, and end users may adjust the three-dimensional depth factor metadata to suit particular rendering environments or personal viewing preferences.
