  • Wrapping a 360 degree image around sphere

    Posted by Renny Arredondo on June 20, 2016 at 6:50 pm

    I am new to using Cinema 4D as well as new to shooting with a 360 degree camera. I would like to create a small animation of my 360 degree photo wrapped around a sphere and then have the sphere revolve to display the full image. Is that possible?

    Thank you for any and all information. Sorry if this is a very rudimentary question, but again new to the software.

    If you’re 360 pano is in rectangular format with the width being twice the height, it will map perfectly the the default sky or sphere objects. Then it’s just a matter of placing a camera at the center of the sphere/sky and rotating the camera on its own axis.
