Some of you may have heard about Papervision3D, a 3D engine for Flash, which provides some awesome performance given that it’s written entirely in ActionScript.

I’ve seen some interesting (small) Papervision3D applications in the past, but this BBC project has got to be one of the largest PV3D projects ever. “Big and Small” is a kids comedy show of the BBC. Plug-in Media created a accompanying site using PV3D and the results are pretty stunning. You can visit the site using this link: http://www.pluginmedia.net/clients/bigandsmall. When you go there, keep in mind that everything is rendered on your local system – the server just sends the 3D (and 2D) objects.
