By Mike Foody CEO Global Imagination FullGlobe TM A New Tool to Help Build “High Production Value” Media for Spherical Displays
2
What Is “High Production Value” Media? Combines media from different sources into a single movie Has a high level of visual quality Often has a “tightly synchronized” audio track
3
Examples
4
The Challenge: Flat Maps Always Distort Movie-making tools work in a flat, rectangular space It’s hard to make content look like it should on a sphere
5
The Solution Today? Clip-by-Clip, Frame-by-Frame Warping Tools exist for handling single images on single frames, e.g. Photoshop & Flexify But it’s time extremely consuming
6
Science Animation Examples Satellite tracks The Moon – Pole Tilted Down Satellite fly-over The Moon Day-Night Cycle
7
A New Tool: FullGlobe An AfterEffects plug-in –No new movie-making skills to learn –Seamless use of full AfterEffects capabilities Runs on PC and Mac Supports multiple map projections Handles warping and splitting of media Supports “pole rotation” Generates rectangular movies – perfect for SOS Also directly generates “disk” movies for the Magic Planet Based upon Fulldome - Developed by Multimeios in collaboration with Global Imagination –Proven technology –Proven “spherical movie-making” experience –Exclusively available from Global Imagination
8
Supports Multiple Map Projections Input projections Azimuthal Equidistant Aitoff Hammer-Aitoff Gnomonic Stereographic Orthographic Vertical Perspective Cylindrical Equidistant Cylindrical Equal Area Center Cylindrical Panoramic Equidistant Panoramic Equal Area Center Panoramic

Warping and Splitting Adding a rectangular image

Warping and Splitting Warping a rectangular image

Warping and Splitting Splitting a rectangular image
12
Multiple Output Projections Rectangular (incl MP4) Magic Planet –E.g. develop final MP movies entirely on the Mac Orthographic
13
Basic Version Bundled With MP Tools Pro Version Available to Anyone Basic version: –PC only –Rectangular input only –Warping & splitting only –Rectangular output only
14
FullGlobe Saves Time FullGlobe saves a substantial amount of time when developing movies and animations for spherical displays It puts sophisticated, high production value animations and movies within every AfterEffects user’s reach Every spherical movie-maker should strongly consider it
15
Flash Filter Coming Soon It warps “clips” depending upon location – in real time It splits “clips” too! Build truly interactive applications that appear properly on the globe –E.g. Have the globe display results based upon visitor interaction –Move from passive to active Develop multi-player interactives (e.g. games) –Work with a variety of input devices
