How to generate 3D Wiggle Animations

Learn how to generate 3D wiggle animations from your stereo images and how to share them on social media.
You will need StereoPhotoMaker for auto alignment of your images and for generating animated wiggle-GIFs.
Most social media platforms do not accept the GIF file format. So you need to convert your GIFs into mp4 videos with at least 3 seconds length.
Use Adobe Photoshop or any similar software to multiply your frames and to export as mp4 videos.
