Travel Animator uses 3D maps to offer a globe-style visual experience of your travel routes.
Imagine you are creating the animation video of the longest flight in the world. You want to show the flight trip from one side to the other to show the distance and countries covered. 3D maps are the best way to showcase the video engagingly.
This guide will help you create the globe view for your travel stories using different 3D maps.
