Producing 360s

Prerequisites

• Client has approved the images
• Contract is set in advance for the work
• A recent update of Object2VR is installed

Work

• Start a timer - to measure how long it takes and charge accordingly.
• Download all the images into my object2vr folder: client-name/project-name
• Read the imaging in using the sequence definition of images:

* '1032_v3_'+ fill(column,4,'0') + '.jpg'

• Set Object2VR:

* Images size should match the original, 97% jpeg compression
* Output File is: output/project-name.xml
* Hotspor textbox is off
* HTML -> Fullscreen is checked
* HTML -> Show User Data Table: unchecked
* HTML -> Output file: output/project-name.html

• Make sure the rotation goes the right way - part closer to us is the part we'll be dragging.
• Produce both swf and html outputs
• Pack the files in a zip and send using wetransfer (may need money in first...).
• Send to my hosting so that the customer will have first hand demo.

Post work

• If needed - charge in advance
• Deliver a link to the demo
• Feedback on any problems we had
• Ask for approval that all is good
• Issue an invoice
• Set a date in the calendar to make sure money is in

Ideas for automation:

• Have all of this run using a script on a small aws machine. I wish object2vr had a SASS... Maybe I can talk with them about it???
