Hey folks!
Interesting thread. I'm coming in a bit late, but I saw reference to the folks from the flying cirkus (
http://www.flyingcirkus.com ) hovering a plane on top of a person laying on the deck. Well, I did some research on this topic and found that they were actually using a lipstick cam mounted to a 20' boom to film that shot. Nice effect, it seemed to have worked. What a great video.
Happy 3d'ing
