How to Make a Hologram Video for DIY 3D Hologram Projector

I made a Holographic Video for my DIY 3D Hologram Projector (click here for the Instructable).

thebear1 asked for how to make a holographic video and might be someone else is interested in so here is my version. I'm absolutely not professional in this so if you have any advice or I made a mistake please let me know!

I use Adobe Premier Elements to make my video and there is an effect in it to mirror the hole video. (Effects->Perspective->Basic 3D)

I attached it and set the preferences to:

Swivel: 180°

Tilt: -22°

Distance tolmage: 19°

The last two was default. I think it's enough to flip it with 180°.

My original video has a 1920*1080 resolution and I want to make the end result be the same.

A little math:

I named the longer side to X and If you divide 1080/1920 you get the shorter side is 0,5625 X.

That's come easy from here you have to divide the end video's height with 0,5625 X*2+1 X.

The X will be nearly 508. It's not exact but good enough for me.

So now you know the X you can count the short side as well. It's 285,75.

I made a template what I can use in Elements to scale down the original videos.

I imported the template in white to the program because it has a black background.

Then the mirrored video four times to different layers.

After I had just to scale and rotate everything to its own place.

It sounds difficult but I did the math for you so now just scaling and rotating and it's done!
