It's great man! The atmosphere just drips off it, and I love the music change to accompany each room. Top notch, oh and those chickens rock.

<---- IKEA :love:

i was at work and showed this to some workmates (we are all strictly flash designers/developers). They opened it up and the image just faded in, well is that all? they though, i then told them to move the mouse left and click ....

the room went silent followed by "wooaahhhhh" for each person. lol

: We started analysing each picture and come to the reasoning that some of the "in the air" objects might of been put in after. (eg, toast, wine). The toast looks a little too perfect in the way its popped and the wine looks a touch shinny than it should. Then we thought ok, how? ... Im asuming the image seqence from the action shot was taken to After effects, in a 3d space the image were spanned out in a circle, camera was placed in te middle then the additional 3d created elements were placed in the scene....then the camera was animated to circle and that was rendeded out, maybe aye. :smirk:

in any case, awesome effect perfectly executed, amazing just amazing. :beam:

I was kind of thinking of the same thing as you guys did, that would also definitly be the "inexpensive" and time consuming way of doing that. they could have also place cameras in a circle and took the pictures at the same time, the fact that it doesn't do a full rotation they won't need green screens. But they definitly added effects afterwords

[.soulty]

^ yeah i already assumed that the cameras in a circle (like the matrix setup) was already created to take the original shots, yet special touches would of been added was my guess. :)

Some professor guy set up a room at my university that could do Matrix type shots, their was like 40 cameras or something...saw the pics.

This has got to be one of the coolest things I've seen in Flash...I know we've seen this in films and games but it looks almost as good in flash.

[minimalistik]

Great use of Flash and the other technologies they have used. A creative way to display their products. A bit heavy for my memory though, thankgod I have Broadband now.

Here's a site from a while back, I'd say at least 2 or 3 years that uses the same sort of idea, only gives it it's own special twist. You will need the shockwave plug-in to view it.

These guys performed at the lowlands festival in holland too and were doing some really cool live stuff on stage.

edit: heres a couple of movies from parts of their show: http://www.pipslab.nl/parade/index.php

[eurosickwitit]

nice, and loading slow indeed

[nobody]

That loaded real fast and blew my mind. I can honestly say that's the best flash site I've ever seen.

[thesparky007]

it is just like they do the 360 degree shots for sports and other stuff

[mansour]

beautiful, i don't understand how u can take camera shots from all of those angles, there must be a simpler way to create the same effect

[musicwithcolors]

they use laser controlled cameras to take the snap shot.. and yeah, the site is totally amazing!

[kai001]

WOW! This is amazing! I've always wanted to do that kind of thing :D

[evilgoo]

That site is amazing. And it loaded quickly for me. Added it to my Favorites. :thumb:

the site is insanely good

[deevius]

Nah, purely video man. They've taken video footage, frozen it (er, not literally) and then using some program (dunno, maybe After Effects) make the effect.
