A 3D video generator receives a two-dimensional image to be converted to a first three-dimensional video. The 3D video generator generates a depth map based on depth values for each of a plurality of pixels in the input image. Based on the depth map, the input image and a view disparity value, the 3D video generator creates a series of modified images that are associated with the input image. When combined, the series of modified images comprises a 3D video.
