In a 360 film, the audience can look around the captured scene. That creates a practical challenge: crew members and equipment may appear where a conventional camera would never see them. High5VR plans immersive shoots with the full surrounding view in mind.
Plan before recording
Camera placement affects sightlines and the spaces available for crew positions. Consider reflective surfaces and objects near the camera as well as people. A location review can identify these issues before they become editing problems.
Coordinate the scene
Performers need to understand where activity happens and how viewers may follow it. Audio, movement and the arrangement of the environment can help guide attention. The production team needs an agreed recording plan so necessary work happens without unintended appearances.
Include post-production in the brief
Some equipment or unwanted details may require post-production work where feasible. That is not a reason to ignore planning: complex repairs can take time and may not deliver the intended result. Agree the viewing format, editing requirements and practical limitations before the shoot.
