About 360stories.net

The concept of 360stories relates to the early stage of creation of feature 360-degree film stories. The trials of different methods are gathered on this website. Most of the movies were recorded using spherical video cameras (Ladybug2 and Ladybug3) and present stories by the application of the same or similar techniques of presenting narratives as in the early cinema and characterise the following features:
- the application of commentary of a lecturer
- creation of travel genre movies
- lack of advanced video editing
- lack of actors
- lack of dialogues

The research about merging video panoramas and narratives continues.

I would like to express my gratitude towards ICCI from the University of Plymouth for their support in the creation video panoramas presented on this website. You are welcome to upload your 360story to this website.

This YouTube video explains one of the methods of gathering 360stories:

"iDOME is a proprietry hardware/software platform developed by the iCinema Centre that offers a cost-effective and compact immersive visualisation environment for panoramic and spherical representations, video and/or computer generated. Ideally suited for museological applications, it is configured as a three to five meter fibreglass hemisphere that stands vertically in front of the viewer, with a projector, computer, surround audio equipment and user interface."

quote from: http://www.icinema.unsw.edu.au/projects/infra_dome.html This movie was recorded using Fisheye lens. I would like to thank Sarah Kenderdine for the opportunity to display my panoramic movie on iDome in ALiVE lab at the City University of Hong Kong.
