Video showcase of a wrought iron artist

This is not the usual 3D modeling thing I’m familiar with. Exploring the new territory of video editing and 2.5D (is camera mapping a wrong term for what I’ve done so far?).

Anway, vid is here:

What I’m going to do next is showcase some 50 photos. I don’t have the actual object in anywhere near 3rd dimension, but the project is also on very limited budget so I won’t go into modelling any of it either. Can someone with experience in animating photos (be it 2D or 2.5D) give me some advice on how to achieve good-looking results in this kind of work flow?
