Nowadays, 360-degree panoramic photography has become a new subject, especially in creating a virtual tour. Panoramic photography is loved by everyone because of its excellent effect. Everyone is very familiar with taking panoramic pictures, and the threshold of panoramic photography is getting lower and lower. So how can the 360 panoramic shooting effect be better? Today, let’s talk about 360 panoramic shooting skills from several different angles to enhance your virtual tour. Only by learning 360 panoramic shooting skills can you take more perfect panoramic pictures.
First of all, panoramic photography requires post-synthesis. In the early stage, various types of panoramic images are obtained by shooting images within a 360-degree range and then synthesizing them in the later stage. This synthesis is crucial for creating a seamless virtual tour experience. Therefore, we need to learn both the early shooting and the later synthesis.
From the perspective of the panoramic photography environment, panoramic photography does not require too much bizarre light. Generally, it can be done when visibility is good, temperature is low, air is good, and light is sufficient. The 360 panoramic shooting technique is that you can generally choose a clear autumn afternoon or a clear seaside. Snow-capped mountains and grasslands are the best places to take panoramic photos, which will significantly enhance the quality of your virtual tour.
From the perspective of the selection of the point for panoramic shooting, generally, a high ground or the center of the scene is selected, in order to obtain more scene information. In addition, the panorama needs to be rotated when viewing, so choosing the geometric center of the scene can largely avoid giving the viewer a feeling of weightlessness. This ensures a more comfortable and immersive virtual tour experience.
The above introduces two 360 panoramic shooting techniques, which are also some knowledge we need to master in the early stage of panoramic shooting. By understanding the characteristics of 360 panoramic photography, you can take better panoramic photos and create more engaging virtual tours.
