Description: 360° Trickshots is an interactive Virtual Reality video, where the viewer controls what they see. HOW TO VIEW: —📱Phone (recommended): Move your phone around, and point where you want to look. This must be done in the YouTube app. You can also tap and drag on your screen to change the viewing area. — 🖥 Computer: Click and drag on the screen to change the viewing area. You can also click the arrow keys on the top left of the screen , or use the arrow keys on your keyboard (after clicking the top left button). 🚫 If you are unable to view this 360 format, here is the reframed version: youtu.be/fNAdBDA079w 🎶 Song: Andrew Applepie, narou, Dario Lessing - At Night (Instrumental) andrewapplepie.com Creezy Merch: teespring.com/stores/creezy Instagram: instagram.com/creezy.creations 📝 Video Notes: This is my first VR YouTube video, and it proposed many new challenges that I have not dealt with before. Every trickshot you have seen in this video has gone through at least a couple variations, in an attempt to create the best viewer experience in VR. As most VR videos let the viewers look around freely at some kind of location or event, I had to plan exactly where I wanted the viewer to look for each part of the video, and do so without having text in the video that explicitly says "LOOK OVER HERE!". I worked really hard to prevent the viewer from getting "lost" in the VR video, and not knowing where to look. I noticed things like fast-moving basketballs or frisbees were hard to follow, which is why most of the tricks in this video involve slow-rolling balls rather than super far basketball shots. I also had to figure out how to make trickshots that did a full 360 (or at least partial) around the camera, so the viewer wasn't staring at one place the whole time. I realized the interactive video is kind of is like a game, where the viewer has to try and follow along the action, and if they mess up, they can simply go back 10 seconds in the video. Let me know in the comments if you were able to follow along, and if not, let me know where you got "lost". I definitely plan on making more 360 videos in the future if this video is well received, so also leave a comment if you liked this and want to see more VR stuff! 📸 Camera: I used the GoPro MAX to film this video. I was lucky enough to have GoPro send me this camera after winning the HomePro challenge in March of last year. You may think you need a crazy complicated camera rig to film 360 video like this, but the MAX is just a normal looking GoPro, except it has a lens on each side of the camera (instead of on just one side). I honestly can't believe more people aren't using this technology right now, because in the 10 months I got this camera, all I have been doing is playing around with it and seeing what I can make. I won't go on too much about this camera, but I am definitely going to use be using it more in future videos. If anyone from GoPro is reading this, I would love to become an official partner with you guys! 🖥 Editing: I used Final Cut Pro X to edit this video. It was super cool being able to learn how to edit 360 footage from scratch. I enjoy experimental projects like this because it helps me learn new editing and camera tricks, all while making cool content for you guys. In the future, I want to mix editing and trickshots together to see what i can make, so stay tuned for that! Q: How is the camera floating in some of the clips? A: Since the 360 camera only has two lenses, it needs to stitch all the footage from the two lenses together into one 360 video. If you hold the camera on a selfie stick, and attach it between the two lenses, the camera will actually stitch out the whole stick, making it look like a floating camera. Even after using this trick, I still (tried to) edit out any kind of camera equipment that was still visible in the final cut. If you are still curious about any of this, ask me in the comments, or message me on Instagram! Q: Was the time lapse of the clouds real? A: Absolutely, and it took way more effort than you might think. I came to this beach 8 separate times to try and film this shot, and each time I had redo it for some reason. Sometimes the trickshot didn't look good on camera (and I didn't realize until after filming an hour long time lapse). Or sometimes the weather was bad (not enough clouds, or too windy, but always freezing cold). I still think this time lapse shot good have been better if there was actually a sunset, but I guess the big gray clouds moving by so quick looked kinda cool too. Shout out to my girlfriend Rachel for staying with me in the freezing cold as we made sure nobody stole my camera during the time lapse video! Q: Will you do more VR videos in the future? A: If people like this video, I definitely intend on it. LEAVE ANY MORE QUESTIONS YOU HAVE IN THE COMMENTS BELOW! Thanks for watching! #360video #virtualreality #GoProMAX #VR360
