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:
This interactive video panorama presents a dinner at The Who'd Have Thought It Inn, Milton Combe on 5th August 2010. The participants of Panotools Meeting 2010 enjoyed the meal after the trip to Dartmoor National Park in Devon (UK).
Panotools Meeting is an opportunity for panoramic photographers from all over the world to meet and discuss new techniques of creating and presenting panoramas.
This is a timelapse panoramic video and it was created using Ladybug2 camera. Shot at roughly 1 second intervals presented at 30 frames per second.
Please look at the table and notice some great stop-motion animations.
Ian Wood's YouTube video which you can find below presents these animations from a different perspective.
Please look around and don't forget to look at the table to see these animations.
