Check out this video of the Canadian North. And feel free to drag around the picture while you watch it.
Dude, this is incredible. Simply astounding.
I’ve had it queued since you posted it, but haven’t been able to find words to accompany. It’s not so much the visuals/landscapes (which I am fortunate enough to say I’ve seen similar before) as the interactive 3D—and maybe a little bit of tenor, too. It gives me one of those cliche “wow… we’ve come so far” kind of moments.
I know it’s not the same as actually being in the helicopter, but damn, give it 25 years and check with me again: there’s a lot of potential in that kind of technology. (i.e. not ‘authentic,’ but ‘augmented’ through the likes of music, editing, re-playability, complexity, etc.)
On that note, I found it interesting how even through watching it multiple times, I often found myself navigating/directing the camera at similar areas during similar moments, almost as if there were indeed a ‘truer’ or more authentic view that I seemed to favour. You can bet I’ll be keeping my eye on things like this. Major thanks for sharing.
