If you want to output a 3D stereo media, then please follow the steps below:
In the Output page, click on the Media tab.
Enable the 3D Stereo Vision box. Choose the Anaglyph (Red/Cyan) or Side by Side radio button.
Drag the slider to define the value for Display Distance. For more information about the Display Distance, please click here.
This method employs anaglyph media and anaglyph filters. Anaglyph media can be videos or images made of two color layers. These two layers, containing differently filtered colored images for left and right eyes (as described above), superimpose in each frame (for video) or image.
In order to produce the sensation of depth, you must use two identical color filters to pass images separately to the left and right eyes. However, this method can result in color-loss issues due to the colored filters.
This method utilizes media consisting of a pair of side-by-side offset frames (for video) or images described as above. You do not need any special device to view this media, you only need to adjust the focus of your binocular vision so that the images from both sides overlap with each other.
In order to overlap the paired frames, or images, and sense the depth of the media, you may employ your bare eyes with Parallel Viewing technique.
The bare-eye technique sometimes increases the uneasiness in the eyes. In order to have a better stereo vision experience, it is recommend to employ the following prerequisites:
Side by side media (can be created by CrazyTalk)
Specific player (for creating alternating-frame sequencing or superimposed video)
Specific display and filter devices (for filtering images to the left and right eyes separately)
The interval time to playback the left and right images are rather short. The human brain takes the paired images and synchronizes them together in order to generate the feeling of depth.
For more details about players, displays and filter devices, please refer to the Environment for Viewing 3D Stereo Media section.
The Display Distance value decides the convergence distance as you playback the output media. The higher the value, the closer the objects tend to pop-up in relation to the convergence point. The lower the value, the farther the objects move to the back of the convergence point.
In the illustrations below, the CrazyTalk project is taken as a box with the character and comic effects integrated.

Take note that the profile of the character may affect the depth value of the whole 3D stereo project. For more information, please refer to the Specifying Face Orientation and Style and Creating 3D Stereo Project in CrazyTalk sections.

If your 3D stereo media is in Anaglyph format, then you can simply upload it to YouTube in the conventional method. If you want to upload your Side-by-Side 3D stereo media to YouTube, please follow the steps below:
Prepare your 3D stereo media.
Upload it to YouTube. In the Tag section, type in "yt3d:enable=true".
On the video page, you may encounter a warning message. Click the Click Here to enable the 3D controls.
You may then select your media type in the drop-down list.
Visitors may then use YouTube as a 3D player.
