A little test I made. First I planned to make a short video of Santa for Christmas but then the clip wasn't so good that I end it. There you go, it's not very good but hope you like it.
It was kind of obvious that the snowmobile wasn't actually moving.
Maybe if you put in more layers of trees, didn't show the path, and moved the light source (not moving it is fine for a daytime shot, though), it would look more convincing.
If you watch the one-piece tree, it looks like the trees are moving to the right. But if you watch the brick-built trees, you get a "wagon wheel effect"; it looks like the trees are moving the opposite direction, to the left.
Wow you are right, but it really matter how you watch that. So it depends.
Not too bad, but I think that the dead giveaway is that the camera does not move at all. The studs of the baseplate and the snowmobile are in the exact same spot for every photo. Perhaps move the snowmobile around a little bit as well as the camera to simulate some shaking, as a camera moving at those speeds would be difficult to stabilize, even on a dolly. Overall, nice job! Decent FPS and just about no lighting flicker. 
Haha thanks! This is just a test. 
Yeah I don't usually have light flicker but that was pretty hard to animate, because I moved every single white brick in front of the trees. You can see they're moving, that was still pretty bad, because if you are looking them, they don't move very well in sometimes 
I tried to animate something different and that is the result, not good but not bad.
It looked pretty good, there were just a few things that could have been done to sell the effect a little more, and that was the purpose of the test. I think
Yup I agree.
