Macromedia Flash interactive animated fly-through of panoramas
A frame from the interactive panorama animation of Two Cities
Zooming in and out a city using your left mouse button you can fly through a virtual trip. Programmed with Macromedia Flash the result is very smooth and slick. You can spend a lot of minutes flying in and out these virtual cities. The actual animation is obtained by re-scaling different layers representing different parts of the landscape: buildings, bridegs mountains.
The final result gives depth and perspective to the visual experience.
Very nice and relaxing.

Dang that is crazy amount of effort. From the desciption above I kinda get an idea how is it done but the degree of difficulty is still a huge question mark. It is not just resizing but to achieve the right scaling ratio to make the whole thing so smooth is just awesome!

Wow, this post is almost four years old.. I remember I liked the simple yet effective effect. I think it could work as an example of drawing the atmospheric perspective principle.
