This is a stylish map of the United States of America.
You are offered three basic animation options:
- The camera flies into the state, and you begin to see that there is a video inside the state.
- The camera flies up to the selected state and continues an orbital movement at the point of approach. An infobox appears on the territory of the state where you can showcase your video or display the necessary information.
- The camera moves over the territory of the United States, sequentially flying from one state to another.
All animation settings boil down to selecting the name of the desired state from the list and setting the animation range using markers, as shown below:
By using the controls to adjust the position and speed of the camera movement, you will be able to create a multitude of animations.
By using the controls to adjust the colors, you can explore great color schemes.
All control elements are easy to understand, making this project suitable even for beginners.
