Auto generated fly-through
-
I am looking for a tool/extension that will auto generate a large fly-through for me. Let me explain...
The end goal is to create a video that will start off looking directly down on my object and then spin around the object at decreasing angles with the goal being to catch the object at almost every angle possible. Then export the video to an image set so I have a large set of images that capture virtual every angle of the target.
I know that I "could" do this by making a large amount of scenes for each spiral around the target. The problem with this technique is that it is extremely time consuming and that in the end I would just be "eyeballing it". The video needs to go down about 5 degrees after each rotation around the object.
Can anyone point me in the direction of a tool/extension that can do this or walk me through a technique that would reduce the task of creating hundreds of precise scenes?

I don't think you'll have it so easy, there will be some amount of work you'll have to do.
you can start at having a look at the list here to see which will suit your needs, I'm guessing Camera Key Maker and/or Camera Tools:
SketchUp Plugins | PluginStore | SketchUcation
SketchUp Plugin and Extension Store by SketchUcation provides free downloads of hundreds of SketchUp extensions and plugins
