Pity that the buildings are squares and that the bridges are so detailed. Did you make those bridges using another program then ArcScene?

[GraciesFlicks]

It was all done using ArcMap and ArcScene. The buildings were just extruded from the building footprint shape to the height of the building. My wife actually created the bridges on her own.

Very smooth fly-through, quite impressive.  Did you do film your own "live" clips to match the model? I've thought of doing a transition from an actual video and transition into the model... not sure how that'd work, but it's just a thought. Again, well done.

[GraciesFlicks]

Thanks. Actually, we already had created the model in ArcScene, I went and filmed the live footage, my wife centered the pan point in the model based on where I stood while filming, and then we adjusted the time of the live pan to that of the model. Your transition idea is doable - the camera must have the same perspective as the perspective in the model to make it look seamless.

nice work, I like how you've shown the same thing in ArcScene and actual footage

[GraciesFlicks]

Thanks so much. We're excited about creating another video entry for the 2009 conference.

In what did she make it? That was actually my question. (because, as far as I know, ArcScene doesn't do complex modeling).
