1. All about 3D Movies Image Source

2. First, a bit of science: Anaglyph 3D images are made by two layers of different color that are moved slightly and laid on top of each other The main subject of the image is placed in the center and the foreground and background are placed offset from each other so as to create a "stereoscopic 3D" image. The visual cortex of one’s brain brings these two images together when viewed through a special viewer which holds two lenses with different colored filters, usually red and blue. Image Source
