3D animation

Animating a 3D globe was going to be difficult within flash. I researched the best ways to do this and found a few solutions. Swift is a 3D software that works with flash and exports the 3D tween for flash. Using this method would not only very quick but also precise.

I found other software as well was not able to get these programs due to money. I then realized that Photoshop CS5 has its own 3D plugin that allows you to create 3D objects.
I used this to create the earth and then navigate around the globe bit by bit while saving each section. This was very time consuming but i got the result i needed.
