Note: The course has been updated as of August 2023 using the latest version of the software available at that time.
Panoramic Photography is becoming more popular as the tools to create and publish photospheres, spherical images, or 360 panoramic images become easier to use and more readily available. However, not all photospheres are created equal. In this course, we will focus on the highest quality production process possible.
This course will provide you with industry-standard expertise in purchasing equipment, acquiring, processing, and stitching panoramic images, and publishing them to a website and Google Maps, and Kuula. Additionally, we will upload more interactive experiences to a web hosting platform and view these using web browsers, phones with cardboard, and headsets.
In addition, we will explore how we can augment or enhance the user's experience using image popups, embedded video, pinned video, spatial audio, and links to websites, and documents. All of these features currently work on standard web browsers but only some of them are supported by Web XR on other devices. We will explore and test the current support level of these various enhancements and ways to work around others while the technology is catching up. Welcome to the bleeding edge of technology!
I will walk you through the process that I use to create high-quality panoramic images using a DSLR camera and Sigma 8mm fisheye lens. In order to take full advantage of this course, you will need to have access to the required equipment and software which I will carefully outline.
Select the proper software and equipment for creating panoramic images.
Setup the equipment to photograph a panoramic/spherical image.
Photograph a panoramic image using the 4 shot, 6 shot and 18 shot workflow.

Best Course Ever!
Très instructif, et bien expliqué
Very good and helpful
Excellent course, good explanation of the subject, you can go out and start creating pabo’s and objects yourself. :-)
I found this course a good balance for beginners and intermediates - there was good coverage of a number of essential elements and various topics for those who want some elements now and can use others later.
The subtitles are not accurately worded. The instructor's voice breaks up at the beginning of the lessons. Some topics are introduced without explaining the basics. For example, he said "please be kind to the software....and don't take bad photos". How do you expect students to know what is bad when you have not even introduced properly how to take good photos?
Very helpful. explains step by step. i feel after this course is finished i can implement this.
Great Course !
