The raw footage was taken on location at Pandapas Pond, using a tripod and an Olympus digital camera. A laptop was on-site to download pictures to, as the camera's storage capabilities were limited to about 20 pictures. The VR Worx 1.0 software was used to create the QuickTime VR "scene" - a series of panoramas, still pictures, and virtual reality "objects."
Hints on the movie: there are three panoramas connected together. In the first one, there are two still scenes embedded and one "object" (a beaver-chewed stump that can be rotated). In the second scene, there is one still image. The third scene is just a panorama with no embedded objects.
The "armed beavers" images are from the Beavers: Wetlands & Wildlife web site. I added the armaments in with Photoshop.
