Found Footage: iPod Panorama
I stumbled across this video on YouTube, which shows a cool panoramic scrolling effect on an iPod. It comes from website Ben+Marc, which offers a complete write up on how they created the effect. They set up a camera on a tripod and took a series of pictures, snapping each one with about a 5 to 10% overlap to build a 360-degree revolution. After, on their computer, they edited the photos to create the near-seamless joins. Cool stuff. Enjoy the video.

I'm publishing "VR Podcast" on my weblog "QTVR Diary".
These m4v movie for iPod are made from small QTVR(320x240px) thourgh the software "QTVR2MOV".
Looks more like a 95% overlap to me (i.e. shot 2 is only very slightly different to shot 1). Quite effective result though.
