The online map service GoogleMaps or Google Maps recently turned 12, which is what the graphic design student did Matteo Archondis took the opportunity to create a tribute in video form from over 3.300 individual images. The video called "Google Maps: Hyperlapse Around the World“Shows metropolises and well-known sights of the earth, which are connected by a virtual flight around the blue planet. Here I would like to show you the video and some background information.

Google Maps: Hyperlapse Around the World
PetaPixel shows details of the production
"The idea was [...] To show the potential of this tool we have for discovering the world around us, even if we could not afford to travel to places far from home.“Said Matteo Archondis PetaPixel in an interview. "I also always wanted to create something new and experiment with Google Maps and the Street View System, for me one of the best inventions that lets us see places and places from our computer without having to leave the house.“- on the linked page you can find more information and screenshots of the production.
Can you use screenshots from Google Maps for movies and videos?
If you want to use pictures and other recordings from GoogleMaps and Street View for your vacation video, for exercise in Adobe After Effects, for a YouTube production or even a film, then there are some restrictions. You can use screenshots from Maps and other Google services - also for print media and websites - but only within certain limits. Details and contact information from Google you can find here.
Hyperzoom: local and specially made effect with also a lot of effort
In addition to the Hyperlapse, which shows the fast flight around the world, there are many other interesting and elaborate video effects. With a commercially available single-lens reflex camera, a lot of planning and a program like After Effects, for example, the hyperzoom can be implemented. This is the specialty of artists like Geoff Tompkinsonwho compiled the video below. Has details on this in another video the mirror.
