I taught Digital Imaging at Washington College this past fall semester, and for one of the assignments, I had students go photograph several images to stitch into a panoramic image, and fold into a mini-planet, like this one. I was making short videos like this for out of class review in case anyone had difficulties, and I thought it would make a good episode for Photography Exposed.
In this example shown, I shot several overlapping images around in a 360 degree sweep, based on a central point on campus at Washington College. I used Photomatix for tone mapping the images, which might be an extra step you may want to skip if this is your first time trying this.
The actual processing of the images and folding into a globe-looking image was all handled in Photoshop CS4.
