Camera - Reverse Perspective?

Hi - I’ve been interested in creating reverse perspective images and wondered if anyone has experimented with doing this or if Rhino is capable of producing such an effect. I can sort of achieve it with a perspective camera and increasing the lens length to 1000+ but that doesn’t seem to be correct. The only other thing I’ve found online is this post: Experiments in Reverse Perspective

I also use Enscape as my render engine so ideally the method would be compatible with that.

Thanks in advance for any insight into this one!

Did you get anywhere with this?
Could make really cool 3d prints!

Well, keep in mind that a distorted representation on screen is not the same as a distortion of the 3d geometry.

That’s what I’m trying to understand… to make a 3d version, do you project the 2d perspective image onto a 3d inversion that protrudes outwards?

I’ve seen the cool graffiti art that creates a seemingly 3d image across, for example, 2 walls that meet at 90 degrees to make a corner. This then looks right from one specific viewpoint.

This “reverspective” seems to trick the eye from different angles, seen as the camera moves from side to side in the video above.

This is a different thing, if I underarand what you are shooting for - with a little planning this you can do in Rhino as 3d geometry.
