Nice cape. And nice camera movements!

I wonder, how did you render the city?

BTW...in the original song by chubby checker...what is it, he is singing about? = the sun. = The sun goes up and down = round and round = each day , but the orbital path does a twist over 360 days. makes the trees and plants twist one rotation each year a 360 twist of 23.4 degrees or 6.6.6 degrees over the 360 turn of each day = the sun twist is called the analema = one twist above your head from summer to summer = lets twist again like we did last summer. the issue is how can you see the analema on the same horizon over 30 degrees the whole year if you living an a spinning ball earth. you can not. it is what it is = fact. the earth must be flat...! geometry is geometry 360 is 360. just saying

The city was rendered from filterforge.com... as a texture on a model plane. The non-solid ground is an artifact of that and needs its own attention, which was better in the second half of the clip.

That FF texture and bump map actually make pleasant flyover scenes for Bluff even without being mapped on a model.

Interesting Filter Forge filter!

I tried to remove the displacementmap jaggies by setting the FX DISPLACEMENT DETAIL prop of the AdvancedMaterials\ColourmapDisplacementmapReflectionmap effect to 64. This helped, but did not fully eliminate it. Blurring the displacemenmap in Photoshop did a better job.

I also added fog (with the camera layer) and a Pteranodon from BixPack 39. Great!

Jurassic Rotterdam comes alive! Great tip about blurring the displacement map.
