Here you won&#8217;t find any difficulties, as both Facebook and Youtube recognize the clip as being 360\u2070 and prepare it for viewing. And that&#8217;s it|<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>So let&#8217;s go to the &#8220;cause a sensation&#8221; part?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>After completing the relatively simple process of producing a video on this medium, we leave you with 7 ways to stand out, whether individually, as a company, brand or service.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>#1 PROMOTE YOUR PRODUCT<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nescaf\u00e9 was one of the first to recognize the potential of this type of technology. The company uses these videos to show the coffee production process. In the film (part of a series) the company shows the first step: the collection of coffee beans. With the campaign, by demonstrating the freshness of the raw material and the sustainable way of harvesting, they achieve something more: an extraordinary vehicle for publicizing the brand and creating interest.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container \" style=\"height: 100%;\"><iframe title=\"Dive into the world of NESCAF\u00c9 with NESCAF\u00c9 360\u00b0\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7dgQxtyBAGk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Another company that uses 360\u2070 videos to engage users with their product is Mercedes. For those who couldn&#8217;t be in Frankfurt in 2015 during the IAA Motor Show the car manufacturer created this video. In it were shown the prototypes on display as well as new models. They wanted everyone to live the experience of exclusivity even without being physically at the Exhibition. They managed to enhance consumer engagement and increase the reach of the message.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container \" style=\"height: 100%;\"><iframe title=\"IAA 2015 - Virtual 360\u00b0 video tour - Mercedes-Benz original\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Vfak92pjVUI?start=3&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>#2 PROMOTE YOUR DESTINY<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>360\u2070 videos are one of the best dissemination tools for the tourism industry.

A series of short films in which there is room for the viewer in the story.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=2Je97Zdr1kA\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=2Je97Zdr1kA<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Dimension Gate is a company that produces virtual reality videos and has found an interesting way to promote the brand. Instead of turning to the traditional showreel to present some of their best work, they&#8217;ve created a series of short horror films that they want to go viral with the ultimate goal of increasing brand exposure. Watch one of these videos if you dare.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container \" style=\"height: 100%;\"><iframe title=\"360\u00b0 Horror Series (Ep.1) - &quot;3:00AM&quot;\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8mFFr8LBsUg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>#7 PRODUCE VIDEOCLIPES<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Many artists are joining the 360\u2070 video trend to increase the reach of their publications and generate repeated consumption. As we know, the more we listen to a song, the more likely it is to be engraved in our head. However, unless you are a die-hard fan of an artist, you are not able to listen to the same song over and over again. The solution is to create 360\u2070 videos. You can never see everything that is happening at first sight. To satisfy our curiosity we have to watch the film again and therefore listen to the theme.<\/p>\n<p>This is what Swedish musician Avicii achieved with the clip we shared:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container \" style=\"height: 100%;\"><iframe title=\"Avicii - Waiting For Love (360 Video)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/edcJ_JNeyhg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We start by assuming that you already have a camera for this purpose.
