Camera picks, filming tips, and where to publish your first 360° video.
Keep the camera at a stable height (chest or eye level works best for viewer comfort), use a thin monopod so it can be edited out or hidden by the camera's software, and film in short controlled movements — sudden camera motion is far more disorienting in 360° than in flat video.
Most consumer 360° cameras auto-stitch multiple lenses into a single equirectangular frame in their companion app — no separate stitching software needed for casual creators. For color grading and cuts, standard tools like Adobe Premiere and DaVinci Resolve both support 360° video workflows with dedicated VR viewer plugins.
Upload to YouTube or Vimeo — both detect 360° metadata automatically from supported camera exports and enable interactive playback without any manual configuration. Add a clear thumbnail and description noting "360° video" so viewers know to look around.
