I have seen the video way but I did find a company that has some products that do this: http://www.strata3d.com/foto3d.asp http://www.strata3d.com/showcase_detail.asp?id=1852&page=1&category=85
I'm waiting for a call back from a higher up there to see what the new products are gunna be in regards to actually being photos because these ones look like they are photo realistic models based off of photos. The suggestion for the qucktime ones was close but I can't seem to find an example of one done other that a basci 360 that tilts a small amount. ~Dave the disruptor~ ---------------------------------------- From: "Kevin Aebig" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, May 19, 2006 12:37 PM To: CF-Talk <[email protected]> Subject: RE: complete 360 product photos Hi Dave, I've done these before and there isn't a camera on earth that can capture 360 degrees of an object at the same time. The easiest way to do this is by using a rig and a video camera on a tripod. The rig spins the object and you use chroma keying to remove the background and pedestal. Than to save filesize, you only use specific frames and import them into flash. You could technically use the whole video and allow the user to scrub through them, but it would be pretty heavy. The other method involves using 8 or 16 pictures of each object at incremental changes in rotation with a stationary camera...

I can't find anything like that out there and my photogrpaher and I have been trying to figure out how but whe havent quite got it. Anyone got any ideas? ~Dave the disruptor~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:241001 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
