The invention provides a method for producing a series of stereoscopic pairs of images that can be displayed one after the other as a stereoscopic movie. The sequence of stereoscopic pairs is derived from a sequence of consecutive images of a scene that is obtained by standard techniques using standard equipment. A first image of a pair of images comprising the right and left images of each frame of the stereoscopic series of images is selected from the original sequence of images. Its stereo partner is either selected from the original sequence and/or is generated by transforming images selected from the original sequence of images.
