This tour is presented in Flash which is embedded with the popular flashObject.js. This embedded Flash-based video tour requires Flash Player 8 because it utilizes the latest and greatest video compression technologies. The video was shot with a 3CCD camera against a blue wall in a professional studio. The footage was edited in Adobe After Effects 7 Pro and encoded to Flash Video (FLV) using the brand new On2 VP6 codec. The FLVs were encoded using the alpha channel to preserve transparency. The audio was exported at 80kbps stereo MP3. The FLV was imported to Flash 8 Pro and published as a SWF. The video clips are externally embedded and stream as they play which allows for quick load times.
The text you are reading now is valid XHTML Strict 1.0 and is not part of the Flash movie. This demonstrates the ability to float transparent Flash video (FLV) anywhere on top of static HTML using CSS. This technique works in all modern browsers such as Mozilla Firefox, Safari, and Internet Explorer. Try switching the style in the top right corner to view the video tour in different environments, sometimes without a browser refresh.
