Build Your Project

The Film

In this first section, you will need to first create the 360 videos you would like to use to tell your story. If you have access to a 4K 360 degree camera, feel free to go out into the wild and take the most amazing video you can. If not, don't worry. You have access our giant 360 Media Repository (via the link listed below) and use some of that footage to stitch together your masterpiece.

Once you create or pick out your footage, it's now time to hop into Premier and create some 360 films. Keep in mind that you will want to create multiple videos as you will need that in the Unity interactive section.

Course Footage

*** Do not download an entire repository. Instead, browse the folders and download the subfolder that contains the footage you would like to use.

The Art of Interactivity

Now that you have created a few 360 films, time to make it interactive and the best way to do that is to jump back into Unity. As you saw in the course, starting in Unity 5.6, they have released a built-in video player that you can use for 360 content.

For this section, you will need to do the following:

  1. Add controls for Playing and Pausing the video
  2. Particles to add depth to a scene
  3. A titles and end scene credits
  4. Branching Story Paths allowing for replayability.
  5. Spatial Audio cues to help create mood and presence

README File

You must also include a README.md in the top directory. In it, please include your name, how long it took to complete the project, and one thing you liked and one thing that was challenging about this project.

Done!
