I arranged the images (done in TVPaint) on a kind of "treadmill", then rotated that root layer, that's all. With some adjustment of images sizes, camera distance and overall dimensions I think it will make a nice effect. AS has become my tool of choice for 2,5d stuff because it's so damn fast. And it can even handle image files of several hundred MB easily, as well as hi-res video. The more I use it, the more I'm impressed.
Some 2,5d background test

Of course you could combine as many movements as possible. Buildings definitely need to move much more in animation!
But I want especially this effect because I saw a film on TV when I was small, it was an adaption of "The Bottle Imp" by Robert Louis Stevenson. In it, the several exchanges of the bottle had been done in silhouette against a background setup similar to mine, only made of cardboard instead of in AS. I want to incorporate this childhood memory in my film.

Thank you.
I do all that drawing in TVPaint now, after I spent many hours with adjusting the tools to my taste. I now have a set of my favourite papers and three brush/pencil settings, and that will most likely be all I need for my preferred "crayon/pencil on paper" look. The watercolour you see in the BG is scanned in - there's nothing as good as real watercolour on real paper. But even here I tweak stuff in the computer: i did just a couple of gradients on paper, then changed their colour in Photoshop.
