Using 360 images can be a quick way to create an immersive tour of a location. With the October release of Motive Cloud, you can now create your own 360 tours in Storyflow.
Quick Links
1. Collect the images
Your first step is to collect the images you’ll use. Storyflow currently supports images in equirectangular format. A sample image is shown below.
2. Upload images to Storyflow
These images can be found in this zip file:

3. Organize your photos and create an Enum that represents each scene
A 360 tour is a bit different from other content you’d normally author with Storyflow. Users can visit and revisit any scene in any order they choose. We will use an Enum to track which scene they are currently visiting.
Open Enum slideout
Create a new enum named “tour scenes”
Add an item for each scene
3. Create a 360 Media catalog
4. Create a director Script
Create a Script called, for example, “360 Tour Director”
