I shot this video by hand which made the footage very shaky. I used software to stabilize the video and smooth out the shakiness which gives it a curious digitally distorted look. The reason it goes in reverse is due to there being a long line for access to the viewing point preventing a continuous one shot recording. This illusion is the result of the science of how the brain interprets imagery. Laser technology was relied upon to project the image of the globe/sphere for its construction.

The audio portion of this video is the music of composer Maurice Ravel from the French opera, "Daphnis et Chloé" first performed in Paris at the Chatêlet theatre (a very short walking distance away from Paris' main city hall).

Best illusion ever!!! Thx for uploading this vid Scott! Btw , Did you record it yourself to :) ? Subscribed and liked =D

[WorldScott]

@filip20200 Thank you for your compliment and subscription. I did record this. This video has really inspired me. I have just invested in a device to allow me to record videos like this but without all of the bumpiness that forced me to use stabilization software on this production. Future videos of this type that I record will be much smoother and not turn out distorted with this one. Thank you again! :-)

[filip20200]

@WorldScott No problem =) Btw where are you from :) ?

[WorldScott]

@filip20200 Northern California. Did you subscribe? It doesn't show.

i dont get it?? what was the illusion?

[WorldScott]

@MrChannel5news It's known as an anamorphic illusion. I highly recommend using Google and/or Wikipedia to look up: anamorphic illusion. You'll get a much better explanation that I am able to give in the limited space/functionality of this comment area.
