360 video is something truly mind-blowing the first time you see it. Imagine giving your clients the ability to not just see your space in 360, but also experience it as though they were there themselves. From the comfort of their own home, they can be transported to another place. Here at Simply 360, we use the latest in 360 technology, and video is no exception. We film in 8K, which is beyond Ultra High Definition, also known as UHD or 4K. It is easier to show you what we mean below.
360 Video Is Perfect For:
Explainer Videos: Showcase your product or service directly to your client as though they are already at your business.
Product Demonstrations: Imagine you are a company that sells products but wants a better way to demonstrate them. With 360 videos, you can demonstrate your product or service to your client right in front of them. No more jump cuts to each scene, just a simple and easy way to show everything in one take.
Instruction Manuals: Sometimes an A4 instruction guide or traditional video is not enough. Create a 360 video as an instructional guide and show people how to build or use your products. Lower your inbound call queue as people struggle to use your item. With an onscreen 360 guide, it can show them step by step as if they were right next to you.
Sales Tools: Showcase your property in 360 and let the location speak for itself. Have your best salesperson give a personal guided tour in 360 any time of the day. This is great for property, venues, showrooms or even showing your own business to clients, including areas such as the front reception, manufacturing area or customer service area. Have your client in the driver’s seat of your brand new car, boat or caravan and let them feel like they are in control.
Why 8K 360 Video?
These days, more and more people are upgrading their TVs and computers to 4K. When it comes to 360 imagery, in order to show a seamless, clear image, it is best to record in 8K so it can showcase well in 4K or lower. Anything less can look substandard. This also helps future-proof your video. By upgrading to high-end 8K, your videos can hold up longer visually, and the last thing you want is to have to redo them in a year or two.

Is 8K 360 Too Big?
Of course not. If you are hosting your videos on YouTube, Facebook, Vimeo and similar platforms, they have intelligent systems that automatically scale the video according to screen size and download capacity. This way, your clients will get the best resolution available to view your product or service. If they have an older computer with a smaller screen, it may show in SD or HD. If they are watching at home on a high-end computer or 4K TV, the video can take full advantage of this and look amazing.
