The concept of 360stories relates to the early stage of creation of
feature 360-degree film stories. The trials of different methods are gathered on this website. Most of the movies
were recorded using spherical video cameras (Ladybug2 and Ladybug3) and present stories by the application of
the same or similar techniques of presenting narratives as in the early cinema and characterise the following features:
- the application of commentary of a lecturer
- creation of travel genre movies
- lack of advanced video editing
- lack of actors
- lack of dialogues
The research about merging video panoramas and narratives continues.
I would like to express my gratitude towards ICCI from the University of Plymouth for their support in the creation video panoramas presented on this website.
You are welcome to upload your 360story to this website.
This YouTube video explains one of the methods of gathering 360stories:
This Cornish pilot gig is a six-oared rowing boat.
It is recognised as one of the first shore-based lifeboats that went to vessels in distress, with recorded rescues going back as far as the late 17th century.
The original purpose of the Cornish pilot gig was as a general work boat.
Today, pilot gigs are used primarily for sport, with around 100 clubs across the globe.

This panoramic video presents a group from a club in Plymouth that is rowing on Plym River. There are rowing clubs on both Plymouth rivers (Tamar and Plym) and a growing interest in gig racing.
