*****  I wonder if you are referring to differences betwee the average
absolute depth factors for each image? I've noticed that when I dissolve
from one image to another, if they aren't at closely matched depths, my eyes
strain to accomodate to the relatively different distance zones. In many
cases this might amount to matching the stereo window in both scenes. But
for two scenes where the subjects are different distances from the window,
you would have to pay more attention to the subject correlation/interaction.

Or you could be referring to composition in each image. Some pictures fit
together better than others... an aesthetic choice factor?

****  Like vertigo? You might be able to capitalize on that one by
intention. Like making movie viewers think they are in the roller coaster,
or on the speeding car about to crash. I think various stomach sensations
are associated with those instances too. :-)
