I was watching [Madchild - Broken Record]]
[/video] movie video: and I was wondering how to achieve the 360 degree spinning effect? Would this be more of an in-camera effect with a jib sort thing? Could you achieve this in Final Cut Pro X? How to achieve this effect in such a smooth motion?

Super simple, done in post.
Keyframe the Rotation parameter.
Enlarge enough to hide black edges.

at last! ;)



when you rotate to 'vertical' you have to zoom-in a 33% to fill the gaps…
depending on your cam/rec specs, probably no-one will notice…

Hypothetically you could use a one hand gimbal. Mine - and probably all of the newer ones - allow joystick-controlled endless panning. Now since the gimbal isn't aware in which position the camera is mounted relative to the base plate, you could balance it with the (short) lens facing upward, with the gimbal sitting on a tripod. The tricky part was to find the exact center (> anchor point) of the lens to align with the yaw motor - some mark on the ceiling? Afterwards, you'd tilt the tripod head 90°, set the gimbal's pitch axis to 90° and start panning.

But of course post is easier to do.
