Description

In this equirectangular 360° video clip, a recording of an outdoor camerawork training session is stitched together from the footage taken by a stereoscopic 360° camera with eight lenses.

Please wear headphones.

In the camerawork training session, all the participants are playing particular roles in the training session, and each carries a camera. In preparation for the real data collection with a guide, one person is pretending to be a nature guide. She carries a GoPro camera on a gimbal. There is an instructor, who is carrying a single lens 360° camera on a raised extension pole with a separate ambisonic microphone. Two others are filming with a prosumer camcorder and a single lens 360° camera on a lowered extension pole respectively. And a fifth person is filming with a stereoscopic 360° camera and an independent ambisonic microphone on a monopod. In a nutshell, this is a typical team filming arrangement, in which the team needs to attentively yet silently coordinate their joint camerawork. Languages: Danish and English
