We picked this one up via The ARCH - a blog looking into the use of Second Life for architecture (its really a rather good blog and well worth a look)..
The movie below uses a combination of camera matching and machinima to illusrate how Second Life can illustrate the extension of a building in the real world.
To create such a movie in software such as 3DMax is time consuming, Second Life provides a unique way to quickly visualise changes to a development.
