I did this also quite a while ago with the trailer from "The Phantom
Menace" - there is a fly over of a city which I extracted two frames
from and got reasonably good 3D - it must have been pretty much
computer generated. Unfortunately I don't have as much money as
George Lucas does for lawyers :-) so didn't post it anywhere...

There is currently on satellite running a Chili's (or is it TGIF?)
dolly motion commercial which might have good possibilities.

For TV usage dolly motion sure came and went quickly, eh? Mostly
what I see the camera used for now isn't 3D, but rather a VCR
"fast forward" followed by normal speed motion (particularly on
auto commercials). I'll be glad when that one disapears!
