Whilst hunting for something unrelated, I came across a flash banner with the coolest depth of field transformation I’ve ever seen.
It starts with a still of several people (heads only) each one standing to the side and a little back from the next. All the faces are initially out of focus, then the animation begins. First the person nearest the front gains focus, then the second, then the third. Meanwhile there’s various bits of text flying in.
I suppose all it is, is 4 frames of the same picture, where each frame has had a depth of field mask placed in a different area.
Still cool though.
Oh and BTW – the link is commercial – no I’m not a spammer. I’ll just link straight to the flash file:

How easy is this to do?
