A practical studio workflow

360 Video Client Review: Check the Intended Player

Use a playback environment that supports the required 360 projection and interaction.

The practical answer

Use a playback environment that supports the required 360 projection and interaction. A flat video preview may help discuss timing but cannot validate the immersive experience.

A tourism film looks correct as an equirectangular export but has a visible seam in the headset. The client needs both editorial and immersive review.

Put it into practice

A three-step working sequence

  1. 01

    Confirm projection and destination player

    Write the requirement down before sending the files. Use the project identifiers in the record below.

  2. 02

    Review seams, orientation and titles in that environment

    Use the real recipient or receiving environment for this check. Record the result against the current version.

  3. 03

    Keep a labeled flat preview for timing notes

    Keep the result with the project handoff. Resolve any mismatch before treating this step as complete.

Worked handoff

A concrete example

Ask the reviewer to look behind the initial viewing direction and examine the seam during movement. Check titles at the intended viewing distance. Keep timecoded editorial notes tied to the same exported picture version.

Keep the record

Your project worksheet

Projection, stereo mode, orientation, player, headset test, flat-preview version.

Use these fields to record your own project. The blank worksheet includes the three steps above, room for results, an owner and a date. It is an editorial template, not an automatic export from the product.

Product fit

Where uncompressed.io fits

Use uncompressed.io for a compatible review export and the associated client discussion. Browser playback remains dependent on codec, device and connection. Specialized cinema, broadcast, alpha-channel or immersive deliverables need their own receiving-system checks.

Test the review handoff

Product reference: the existing uncompressed.io workflow guide. The scenarios and worksheets on this page are illustrative editorial examples, not customer testimonials.

Make the next step concrete

Test it with one real project.

Check the client handoff, then choose the plan that matches the work you need to deliver.
