360imagery Proud to be Chosen to Create Virtual Tours for The Fire Fighter's Charity

360imagery Virtual Tour of Jubilee House for the Fire Fighter's Charity

360imagery were very proud to be chosen to work with The Fire Fighter's Charity, a Trust that provides recuperation and physical rehabilitation centres throughout the UK. Check out their website at www.firefighterscharity.org.uk to find out more about the fantastic work they do.

We created three virtual tours, all fairly complex and interactive, of their various centres: Jubilee House in Penrith, Harcombe House in Devon and Marine Court in Littlehampton. The Digital Marketing Officer at the Trust had previously used one of our competitors to create virtual tours, and so was familiar with the technology, as well as appreciating what a fantastic marketing tool a tour can be. However, when it came to value for money for their budget, combined with the highest quality, bespoke end result, they looked no further than 360imagery, awarding us the tender.

As a relatively small company, we keep every element of the virtual tour in-house - from the initial photography, to graphic design and programming, to the stunning end result. It means we pride ourselves on the quality of the work at each stage, and are able to create a completely bespoke tour incorporating just about anything the client wants. Without the overheads of involving 3rd parties it also means that we keep our pricing very competitive.

We shot the 77 panoramic scenes at the 3 centres over 2 days, involving a fairly intensive 800 mile round trip! The project began with a flying visit to the Lake District, home to the newest of the Charity's centres, Jubilee House. This centre is situated within 10 acres of grounds in the picturesque village of Eamont Bridge, one mile from the historic town of Penrith.

Check out the 360imagery virtual tour of Jubilee House for yourself, by either clicking here or on the post image above.

This virtual tour, as is standard for all of our work, has all the whistles and bells to make it a truly interactive experience for the viewer. The tour is navigated using navigational arrows and thumbnails, and there are many pop-up text boxes giving more details as necessary. The Graphic User Interface (GUI) is all bespoke designed around the client logo and colour sways, meaning the end result blends perfectly into the clients existing website. We use HDR (High Dynamic Range) photography techniques, the tour is optimised to run full screen in high definition whilst downloading seamlessly, and it is published in Flash, HTML5 and CS3 for viewing on all current platforms.

In over 8 years of trading, we have created in the region of 1,000 commissioned 360 virtual tours and so have a wealth of experience & ideas to help you with your own project. Take a look at our Portfolio Page if you need a bit of inspiration!

A Stunning 360imagery Virtual Tour for an Award-winning Residential Development.....

360imagery virtual tour of the magnificent award-winning River Quarter development in Sunderland, for Gentoo 

360imagery regularly work with some big name developers, on both commercial and residential property. Our background as Chartered Surveyors, combined with over 8 years experience creating highly interactive, bespoke virtual tours, mean that we are trusted and have a great record of repeat business. We are proud to be the preferred supplier of virtual tours to Crest Nicholson , having worked with them for many years - just check out our Portfolio Page on our website to see the wealth of experience and clients we have worked with in this area.

Recently we have been working with another big residential property client, Gentoo, based up in the North East. 360imagery were chosen to create the virtual tours, by their marketing agency, based on the high quality, interactivity and attention to detail of our tours, and of course value for money! It's great to stand out from our competitors.

This particular project was to create a tour of a 2-bed show apartment on the River Quarter development in Sunderland. We worked our 360imagery magic, and think you'll agree the end result shows off this stunning apartment at its very best.

To see the full virtual tour in action, either click here or on the post image above. Check out the view from the balcony across the River Wear, towards the North Sea.

Now For Something a Bit Different.........

 A Unique 'Before and After' 360imagery Virtual Tour...

360imagery 'before and after' Virtual Tour for F & B Facades

 

At 360imagery, we find ourselves creating 360 virtual tours all sorts of things, especially as more and more people recognise the marketing potential of one of our stunning tours on their website. Check out our Portfolio Page to see some of the more unusual (as well as day-to-day) requests we get - from helicopters, to caravans, to zoos & marine centres, as well some pretty iconic buildings like the Liver Building in Liverpool! It's why we love our job!

This particular client, D & B Facades, wanted a unique 'before and after' 360imagery virtual tour to showcase their over-cladding work. D & B Facades are one of the UK's leading design and build over-cladding specialists. This technique dramatically transforms an old looking, tired building ( in this case a 1960's concrete college building) into something modern and new - at a fraction of the cost of a new build. 

The idea of the project was to have one virtual tour where, as the scene moves round, the image gradually transforms from the old to the new, right in front of the viewer's eyes. It's a fantastic way to give the end resulting building a massive impact, and it could work for any development or refurbishment project.

Let's just show you the end result and you'll see what we mean! Either click here, or on the post image above. Go on, have a play....!

360imagery were on site before any works commenced, to capture the 'before' photography. To create a really stunning impact to the whole scene we shot the single 360-degree panorama from 8 metres in the air. Then, 12 months and a 'touch' of over-cladding later, we returned to site and shot a further panorama from the exact same position. Back at the office, Stuart set to work stitching the images together to create a seamless transition between the 'before' and 'after' panoramas. The client was delighted with the end result and as you can see by clicking here, it blends perfectly into their existing website and really gives it some life.

To optimise the benefits of the interactivity of a virtual tour, over any other marketing medium, we also incorporated text slides within the tour to provide information about the works carried out. We can incorporate just about anything you want to make the tour as interactive as possible, such as navigational arrows, pop-up information text boxes or stills photography, as well as background music and links to other marketing brochures etc. At 360imagery, every element of your project is bespoke designed and we like to make it our challenge to provide whatever the client wants - we haven't failed yet!

360imagery are one of the leading virtual tour companies in the UK. Whatever your virtual tour requirements may be, we have the experience and know-how to create something quite special.

360imagery Virtual Tour of Sports Facilities at Exeter University

 360imagery Virtual Tour of Sports Facilities at Exeter University

Here at 360imagery, we are getting an ever-increasing number of enquiries from Universities, Schools and Academies for 360 Virtual Tours. In fact, we've completed so many we now have a dedicated section on the Portfolio Page of our website to show them off! Check it out by clicking here (and scrolling down the Portfolio Page).

A 360imagery Virtual Tour is a fantastic marketing tool for any building, location or venue and especially within the genre of Education. It means potential students can 'visit' 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and it serves as a highly interactive online prospectus to attract new UK-based and international students.

This particular tour was to show off all the fantastic sports facilities, both on and off campus, provided by Exeter University. Other work we have done for colleges etc have included student accommodation, lecture halls, libraries, museums and conference rooms. A Virtual Tour really can be used for just about anything!

This was a huge tour, comprising 29 scenes, cleverly incorporating both the indoor and outdoor on-site facilities, as well as those off-site, all into one Virtual Tour. There are drop-down menus for each individual site, and then navigational arrows that enable you to take a 'virtual walk' around each site. Probably easier to just check it out for yourself by either clicking here, or on the post image above!

Many of the scenes are photographed using our unique low-level mast equipment, capable of shooting 360-degree scenes from up to 8 metres. As you will see, this is perfect for indoor and outdoor football and MUGA pitches, tennis courts, sports halls etc. - really showing them off at their best (which is what it's all about!).

As is standard with all our work, we have bespoke designed the Graphic User Interface (GUI) around Exeter University Sport Logo and colour sway. The end result being a highly interactive Virtual Tour that blends perfectly into their existing website. Exeter University were so pleased with our work that we've since been back to shoot a few more scenes for them!
