Utilize a 360˚ VR into a video (slow motion)
Posted by Chris Mathews on December 10, 2012 at 8:14 pmHi guys!
I have a client who would like to utilize a 360˚ VR into a video by making it rotate smoothly. If you’re not familiar a 360˚ Object VR is a 36 image (rotated and shot every 10˚) interactive image that you can rotate.
They only need it do a quarter turn, so I am looking at using 10 images. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I could do this? It’s not as simple as playing the 10 frames slower than 23.976, so I need in-between frames that don’t exist.
I tried tweening in the timeline panel of Photoshop with no success, maybe I should try the Puppet tool in After Effects?
Struggling here! Please someone help!

how about shoot the images you need?
don´t make 10 –> go for 30 or so!(take a step back, to see the bigger picture)

December 11, 2012 at 12:33 amHi Stefan,
I mean this with respect, but don’t you think I know that? Why would I be asking for help if I could just reshoot it? It’s not my images, they want to utilize something of their own.
Regardless of stating the obvious, it was nice getting a response.
Thanks,

December 11, 2012 at 12:38 amah ok!
now you got me thinking 😉
(in a good way)what about Camera Projektion?
projekt the “thing” on some solids and make your camera move free.
you can only “get away” with somd smal angels, but maybe it´s enough!!?!😉

December 11, 2012 at 12:50 am“Project” it? Can you explain? It did cross my mind to try and move a camera around it, but I’m not sure how it would work. I’m still thinking I might have to “create” those in between frames with the puppet tool or something?

ok, AE gives you the ability to projekt a image on some solids (white would be the color of choice)
YT gave me this as a example : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6Rhq_bqQ40
think it the other way around –> don´t mak the enviroment –> make the object (or whatever you need to visulise)
to get a tut : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKCzep6-baY
or
maybe take a look at VCP / tuts / Camera Projektion

December 11, 2012 at 12:31 pmSo: you’re starting with 10 images, each shot ~10 degrees apart, right, your video will end up being a panning shot across these 10 images, and you have no in between shots to make a timelapse, is that right?
Something simple:
Throw your images into photoshop and use photomerge to generate a giant panorama that you can pan across:

Use trapcode horizon to generate a seamless environment:

December 11, 2012 at 12:44 pmUnless I am reading your tip wrong, I don’t that will work for me. Mine is an object vr, not a pano vr, therefore it is a product spinning 360˚s, shot every 10˚s

December 11, 2012 at 3:19 pmYou can try time remapping the 10 frames- that will create inbetween frames for you. Twixtor is another way to go – but all things considered you will most likely end up with a lower quality shot- I would also highly recommend re-shooting the product.
