On Sunday, February 26th, 2012, I launched a helium weather balloon into the stratosphere above Los Angeles, California. Suspended from the balloon were 6 GoPro HDHERO2 hi-def cameras, including a pair of 3D configurations. Also aboard the rig was a model of the Argo, the fabled ship from the anime series "Star Blazers" (aka "Space Battleship Yamato" in Japan). This project marked the first 3D footage ever filmed from a high altitude weather balloon, and in the stratosphere.
The image above was captured by a GoPro camera in the stratosphere with no image manipulation. The image below is a CG rendering from an existing Star Blazers / Yamato fan project, and what I attempted to recreate.
