So, Once You close this client, I will advise you to go ahead to get a 360-degree camera to create the images you’ll be using for the real project for the sake of professionalism and a premium outcome.

Free Marketing Tip: The Camera can also be included as part of the offer You give to the clients.

Let’s say a client gets to pay $2,000 for a Virtual Tour gig and You give the client a 360-degree camera as a bonus, the client will love it even more.

Install the app and pick up an interesting spot to try it. After a few screens with tips and welcome messages, you’ll arrive at the homepage of the app.

then click on Create

After selecting “create,” you’ll be taken to the camera screen. The app will guide you through the capture process – essentially, the user has to stand still, and ensure your foot maintains one position as You rotate with the camera. Hold the device in the right position, point the camera at the dot, and hit all orange circles appearing on the screen.

 

The App will Automatically begin stitching all images to create a 360-degree panorama. The progress is indicated by an orange loading bar at the bottom of the screen. As soon as the process is completed, the app will notify you by indicating that your 360 photo is “ready to publish.”

The images are now stitched together into one 360 image. While you are able to preview the raw version of the image on both Android and iOS devices, there are some differences in how you access them. Android and iOS users will need to press the “private tab” click on your image and press the “share icon”, and choose “share privately”, then save the image or send it using your Gmail app
