360 Video<\/a>, also known as VR video, is just as similar to shooting 2D video as it is different. There is a couple of key differences you’re going to want to keep in mind to help ensure your next 360 video piece turns out great.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rule #1: Think about the camera as a character<\/strong>.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One of the greatest things about 360 video (and VR) is that you now have the ability to create a sense of presence within the viewer. You can make that person feel like they’re actually sitting in the room with your characters. The simplest way to do this when shooting 360 video is to think of your viewer ‘as a character’ in the scene. If you were going to be sitting or standing in this room or scene, where would you want to be? What perspective would make the most sense if you were taking part in the conversation? Put your camera there. This will help create a sense of presence and immersion inside your 360 video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can also use this same idea to create tension or emotion in your scene. Think about the last intimate conversation you had with a friend? You were likely sitting a lot closer to that person than you were the last time you caught up with your boss!? We also recommend you check camera site lines and heights in a VR headset before you shoot. Distance and perspective in 360 video (and VR) doesn’t always match reality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
