Pano 360 Meetup 01

etegration | October 20, 2007 | 11:40 pm

Everyone should have gotten the email now and a small handful of us have confirm the attendance.

Do bring your own laptop if you have and load them up with the pano software that you use often or have used Hugin, PTGui, Pano2QTVR, Pleinpot or others.

I’ll show my workflow as the tutorial may be confusing for some, even the video tutorials which I know may be too small for viewing or to your liking.

The weather these few weeks has not be predictable as we all know how Singapore is like thus we’ll start morning 10am for the clear blue skies we are having for the past week, and hope it lasts through Sunday.

We’ll visit 2 places then gather for a hands-on session as I know the actual taking of the photos will be very easy after we all hae the setup “calibrated” and those with the Nodal Ninja will be even quicker! Trust me! It’s the stitching that will take up time. I’ll hunt for a good place, currently 2 places in mind, a friend’s photo studio or a LAN shop kind of setting places as we won’t want our laptops to run out of juice.

I foresee we’ll be taking and stitching at the same time too so battery life will be very much sacred. haha

Please post all comments on this meetup in this thread by click here then scroll to the bottom. Register here first if you have not done so in order to comment. It’s free, of course.

etegration | October 17, 2007 | 2:06 pm

Check out this site http://www.jenstark.com/ It’s really inspirational and “tireless”.

Check out the cool tools that’s used to make these here.

Experimental. I would be moving this site to more of experimental photography techniques that I have tried out and of course, 360 pano will still be very much a big part of it.

Just in case, if you are viewing DevalVR version of certain panos, you should be viewing them in full screens now in a small window right in the middle of your browser. If you are viewing them in a window, you do not have the plugin. Visit this direct link to have DevalVR installed.

Why HDR.

etegration | October 13, 2007 | 2:03 am

I added a short article on why HDR in the Tech section. Direct link here.

It’s essential in 360 Panos. Try it, learn it.

I’ve gotten mails at 360<nospam>@itcow.com asking on certain techniques I use and software I use. I try to reply to them all but at times, they do get flagged as spam, it’ll be a lot better that you register on this site and post your comments directly on the comment/pano/articles you have questions on, ‘ll reply there directly. This way, we share the knowledge to those who may want to ask the same thing.  A forum is an overkill for now as traffics show more viewers daily than “askers”.

Take care and happy pano-ing.

The Bridge

etegration | | 12:25 am

Quicktime | DevalVR 

The Bridge is one of the main structure anyone will see upon entering the Tang Dynasty.  Today, it is vandalised and old. I chose another angle so as not to see it’s current ugly state.

Enter the Empire

etegration | October 12, 2007 | 12:21 am

Quicktime | DevalVR 

What was once a photo processing counter and I presume the main ticketing office is now but ruins. Broken wood and shattered glasses litter the whole places with pigeons making their home all above.

Among the greens lies the lake leading up to the Pagoda.  Beautiful carvings on stone-like structure surrounding the pagoda seems to be of ancient beauties.

ITCoW - In The Course of Work is a website I maintained at http://www.itcow.com and contains some technical and IT stuffs and writeups. Check it out. ITCoW 360, this site, is a sub site used to maintain all panoramas shots. Click on the images on each posts to launch the 360 panos.

Most of the 360 Pano are in DevalVR, although you can view them with just Quicktime installed, they will not be in fullscreen mode. Install the DevalVR plugin, it's just but a few seconds to download and install. Alternatively, there's at times, Flash version of the panos I release. FPP version of panos are Flash too, so if you have Flash installed already, you're all set.

Click on the respective icon to download the plugins.

Get DevalVR! Get Quicktime! Get Flash!
