What should I include on my shot list?

Check out some common shot lists by location type.

Threshold 360 has 3 principles for capturing a quality virtual tour experience. In order to understand what we do and don't capture, let's review:

  1. Provide Context - We strive to simulate the experience of someone actually walking up to and into a location, making it a "natural" digital visit. 
  2. Highlight Key Aspects - We provide users with the highlights, showing them the areas that make your location unique. By cutting out the extras, we're able to deliver high impact content quickly to users across all devices.
  3. Capture Strikepoints - It's not just the areas, or spaces, that makes your location unique. It's the "things" inside (or outside) - those striking views of the new lobby bar, the beautiful mural covering the side of the building, and the gorgeous view of the mountain range from the rooftop.
