ABSTRACT:
A method and a system of generating a video image sequence. According to one embodiment, the method includes positioning a plurality of camera systems relative to a scene such that the camera systems define a gross trajectory. The method further includes transforming images from the camera systems to superimpose a secondary induced motion on the gross trajectory. And the method includes displaying the transformed images in sequence corresponding to the position of the corresponding camera systems along the gross trajectory.
