The flash production wasn't a huge part of this, less than with a normal promo site because all the assets are being imported whole, though it's nicely done. It's the video production that would have cost tens of thousands.

also a cheap way of doing this would be to use one camera, but have it on a tripod, that itself is on something with wheels. Tie a little piece of fishing line to a central point, and the base of the tripod. Make sure you move an even amount everytime you take a picture.

Whaha, yes, you could do that But: that's not wat this movie so special: That's the frozen image of the flying jacket and the bottle of wine that turns to the floor. to get that you really have to spend a lot.

oh yes i know, for that you would HAVE to have numerous cameras. But if you were just going for the same effect but with just people sitting there, you can have them pose and stay still lol.

Yep, maybe the old LEGO trainset could be of use. mount the camera on a train, got the rails in the right angle and set the cam on burstmode.

The only way I can see doing this is in 3D for low budget. Get a stock object CD. shoot your figure with a turn table or other device. use 3d objects to dress the set, then compsite it all togehter in photoshop using batch processing to chop out the background then go in by hand and layer it all together.

in any way done it will be labor intensive and a massive project.

Another aspect of this site is that it uses a lower res image for the turns and if you stay on a frame it loads a higher rez image.

I made a control system to spin a globe which was just a set of images. I bet I could use it for doing this kind of thing.

have to try it tonight.
