A unified test procedure designed for monitoring the experimental settings ensuring quality assurance in 3D and stereoscopic productions

In the context of an EU co-funded project, the authors have developed a semantically-enabled solution for 3D and stereoscopic film productions process monitoring. This paper describes the method selected to design and deliver a unified procedure to consistently set-up and test the acquisition prototype developed. The underlying idea is that at each development step it will be necessary to verify the improvement (or defects) introduced. Therefore, after the calibration steps, the repetition of a well codified testing procedure based on standard cinematographic practices and comprising most of the usual possible shooting issues was used to achieve comparable results thus improving quality control.
