Imagine being able to be at any event, any time, anywhere.<\/strong> From major world events to concerts and sporting venues — even walk the red carpet alongside your favorite stars. Imagine being able to watch the movie 300<\/em>, and looking around at the fighting that surrounds you! Sound too good to be true? Its not, thanks to 360\u00ba video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019ve been following Gravity Jack lately, you\u2019ve probably noticed that we have taken a particular leading interest in this up-and-coming technology; one that allows you to look around and be apart of any scene imaginable. Standard video only allows you to view what is in the immediate field of view of the camera — or simply view the scene from the perspective the camera person decides to shoot from. With 360\u00ba video, the viewer is literally immersed in the video, giving them a full-scale view.<\/strong> The viewer is given complete control, and is able to direct how the camera pans around!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here’s a quick shot we took in our Liberty Lake office to help you experience what this is capable of!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is this technology revolutionary?<\/strong> Like most technologies, the possibilities seem to be endless! Imagine watching your favorite sporting event as the cameraman instead of waiting to catch that killer play\/replay. 360\u00ba video gives you the ability control what angle YOU want to view the action from — as though you were there in real life. If you want to follow your favorite player around, simply control the video to do so (and ensure the cameraman doesn\u2019t \u2018drop the ball\u2019 — pun intended \ud83d\ude42 Sports aren\u2019t your thing? 360\u00ba video can take you anywhere! Take a tour of your favorite museum, from the comfort of your own couch. Be your own tour guide, and see things at your own pace. Zoom in to see Mona Lisa\u2019s mole that you didn\u2019t even know was there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Gravity Jack we use 6 to 7 GoPro Hero 4 Black cameras.<\/strong> We mount them on a 360\u00ba camera rig, which in turn, gives us a full sphere of video. After assembled, we mount the rig in an area where we can take advantage of having as many viewable angles as possible. Those mounts can include the roof of a car, or even a skydiving helmet, placed on our CEO\u2019s head! The best part is that there is no such thing as a blind spot — the user is in total control. After the footage is captured we take it to our editing room. Editing will then stitch the sequences together, making the sequences completely seamless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once the the edits are complete, we can bring the video to you in several formats. First, is the standard YouTube version. Here, you watch the video on your computer screen, in what looks similar to a standard online video player. The only difference is that you have the ability to pan and control the action with a navigator button in the upper left hand of the video (like the one above!). Another (extremely cool) way to watch 360\u00ba video is through a virtual reality headset. Here, you physically put on a headset that mimics your eyesight, by projecting a dual image, so your brain processes it as one seamless image. With the virtual reality headset, you can look in any direction and the camera will take you there. This style gives you the feeling that you are physically immersed in your surroundings, as if you were actually there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don’t have a VR headset? Get one for just a few bucks!<\/strong> There are several virtual reality headsets available that users can enjoy these experiences from. A majority of these headsets can tend to be on the pricier side, so Google invented a device that was affordable. They named it ‘Cardboard’ because it is mainly made out of just that. Simply click here<\/a> to purchase a pair for yourself! All of our projects to date have been Cardboard friendly. Download our Wienermobile app to give it a try<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
