Filming with the Wunder360 VR Camera and Editing in Final Cut Pro X
Photo Moment - June 29, 2018
Ever wundered (ha… see what I did there?) about filming 360 VR? This little camera packs a lot of punch. Today we're looking just at 360 video and editing that in Final Cut Pro X. We'll explore this camera's other capabilities (pano still photos, time lapse, live streaming and more) in future videos.

So here's my thing. 4K video is a bit of misnomer.... 360 4K is not 4K when you're only looking at a small portion of the sphere, any one view looks more like 720p. The concept is fantastic, you don't have to point the camera anywhere, just let it roll. The current hardware just isn't there. Especially with a camera this inexpensive, it can't have the processing power to do much w/o burning up the tiny battery.
I like the GoPro Fusion 360, it has better quality/stabilization, but the offline stitching and file prep takes more work than most people are willing to deal with.
What is exciting is you capture every angle in real time, like having 6 or more 2d cams, and using cuts to switch angles. The audience doesn't have know you shot it in 360
I will have to play with your suggestion though. Do you create a standard project, then identify the clip as 360 and then the additional tool appears?
I really struggle with how this company can think making such a close copy of the Samsung is a good idea. Even if the internals and software are superior, it seems short sighted to not invest more in the appearance and ergonomics.
BTW I have the old Gear 360, and for the price (~$70) it is an amazingly great value and fun toy to get into 360 video. Highly recommended, even for people who don't want the Wunder360 - and learning about 360 and VR is one of those ah-ha processes, things are not how you anticipate them to be.
I need to get a new Samsung and see how it compares.
If you ever get the chance could you do a segment on how to extract stills out of 4K/6K modes on a PC if possible. With easy to use software if available. You may have already covered this but I could not find it if you have.
Hope you finish your other project on time
Good to see you have some viewers who appreciate your work enough to post a video for one of your topics.
