It's gloom and doom here in southern California, thanks to weather that came down from the Pacific Northwest. Things should be back to normal, tomorrow. #stereoscopic #3d #vr youtu.be/9Vwg_Tjik54 via @YouTube
Hey, kids, I forgot about my ANTVR 3D camera, which would have been a great way to shoot 3D of this weather that came down to SoCal from the Pacific Northwest just to piss me off. youtu.be/o1fyKktC6dQ via @YouTube

Hey, kids, my $85 USB 3D camera hates this weather as much as I do, so let's wait for it to go back to the Pacific Northwest, where it belongs. #stereoscopic parallel #3d
Not sure if I should scream at God or the devil... This is our high temperature, today, in Covina, which is well below the average. So, I won't be taking my VR-ready laptop outside until our "normal" weather returns. #stereoscopic parallel #3d

Hey, kids, that will be the background photo for my next USB 3D camera/cell phone audio gag.
Yesterday, I looked for a good background shot for my new USB 3D camera/cell phone audio gag, but my heart wasn't in it. Today's a new day, so cross your fingers and toes for a decent shot of beautiful southern California. #stereoscopic parallel #3d
Answer #1: Fujifilm W3 3D images of beautiful southern California. I'll take it with me, today! Re: youtu.be/4oYz6sljiMo via @YouTube
Wait! I need to do an audio/video sync test, first. Re: youtube.com/watch?v=C9FxaQoo…
Testing my new setup, using my cell phone to record stereo audio. How does it sound? #stereoscopic #3d #vr youtu.be/C9FxaQoo2_M via @YouTube
So this isn't as big of a deal as I thought it might be. I think if I'm at least a couple of feet away from the laptop, the noise in the recording can be drowned out with good audio or background music.
Cell phone stereo audio recording test. Hope this helps.
Okay, kids, I'm not going to let Crissmus, and the fact that I feel miserable from getting my Covid booster, interrupt my plans to get my VR-ready laptop set up for shooting 3D videos. So, let's do this! #stereoscopic #3d

My VR-ready laptop has a killer-loud fan, so I can't use its microphones without picking up the fan noise. Solution? Let's try stereo audio recording with my cell phone.

A day without sunshine is like... well, you know... like a day without sunshine.
After sitting outside in the warm December sunshine, it occurred to me that I don't need to go to a park to shoot 3D videos with my VR-ready laptop and USB 3D camera, since everywhere you go around here looks like a park. D'oh! stereopix.net/photo:bYKy3x6G…
As soon as our two weeks of winter weather is over, I plan on taking my new VR-ready laptop out into the parks, and shooting some 3D video with one of my USB 3D cameras. Hope this helps. Re: youtube.com/watch?v=1yOLLrcZ…

BTW, our two weeks of winter weather doesn't happen all at once, so as long as I can get out into the sunshine, it's usually warm enough. Unfortunately, I won't have time today, though.
