Depth sensing cameras like the Kinect are not only revolutionizing gaming and interactive media, but also have potential for exploring new cinematic techniques. Join us at Eyebeam to learn and create new experiments with the RGBDToolkit, an open source software application for depth enabled filmmaking. By augmenting a high definition video camera with a depth sensor, the toolkit captures the scene as colorful three dimensional forms. A computer graphics and video hybrid, the data can then be manipulated algorithmically and visualized from new perspectives in post.
