This is a great effect created in Photoshop using a panoramic photo and Layer>Effects>Distort>Polar Coordinates. To make it seamless use the clone stamp tool and any other cloning tool you're comfortable with.
I'll be testing this effect out in after effects. I already know of some complications that will arise but may have some creative solutions up my sleeve. I'll post the results asap.
