Blender 3.4 - ADVANCED (or strange?!) camera control!!
At 31:00 i say "the whole world is shifted". But this isn't really true, because the monkey retains the same orthographic angle to the camera. So i'm not really sure how to explain it. I don't think there is physical equivalent that you could do with a real camera. Maybe title shift photography. If someone has more knowledge about this, please chime in in the comments.
