The Melting Pot Virtual Tour

Instead of us telling you about the project, Claire Carpenter (The Melting Pot Managing Director) has kindly summed up why the Melting Pot commissioned FullVisual:

"The Melting Pot has used FullVisuals' virtual tours to great effect over the past 2 years. We provide co-working, meeting and events space in Edinburgh's city centre, and have thousands of guests to our premises every year. We've had great feedback about the virtual tour function from visitors to our website who're looking at a range of venues - it's really helped them get a feel for the space, and for us to win their business if appropriate. We've recently updated the tours, as our space and services have been improved - and I see it as a key feature of our web-presence going forwards." (Claire Carpenter, Managing Director)

Its great to have the chance to help out a good cause just on our doorstep.

After some consideration, I decided I wanted to create a 360 degree panoramic image of a crumbling theatre in Edinburgh. I am interested in places that to some extent have been forgotten, but retain a sense of drama and history.

After doing some research into 360 panorama's I realised I would need some assistance in producing this image. I came across Full Visual on the internet, and was impressed with their work, particularly of theatrical spaces and approached them with the proposal that they would produce the image for me.

I was pleased with the response from Full Visual, particularly with their openness to this as an art work, and not a commercial project. After finally receiving permission to have access to the space, Full Visual and myself spent around an hour arranging and taking the images. The process was much more straightforward and flexible than I had anticipated, and in the following week I had very constructive and useful discussion with full visual regarding the appearance of the image, as well as adding music to the final work. All in all, I am delighted with the final work, and would recommend Full Visual to anyone else looking for an open minded and accomodating approach to visual arts and panoramic photography."

Thanks

The University of St Andrews has added a number of interactive 360 degree virtual tours (view these at http://www.st- andrews.ac.uk/visiting/Virtualtours/) throughout the website. The tours give visitors to the website the opportunity to explore different parts of the University from the comfort of their PC. There are four types of tours that have been taken:

- Outside locations e.g. St Salvator’s Quad
- Internal locations that are used for graduation, conferences and weddings e.g. Younger Hall, St Salvator’s Chapel, Lower College Hall
- Rooms within halls of residence
- Locations within Schools e.g. a clean room with the School of Physics and Astronomy

The tours give a unique insight into locations that are normally restricted to the general public so this help visitors, such as prospective students, decide whether to book a venue or rent accommodation. Parents have particularly appreciated the ability to see the venues for graduation.

The high quality tours were taken by FullVisual, a company based in Edinburgh. Their very reasonable cost has enabled us to commission tours of bedrooms and kitchens from each of the University halls of residence. Compared to conventionally commissioned 2D photography, the virtual tours are very cost effective, especially when you consider that each tour is comprised of over 100 photos!

The tours on the University website are currently in Quicktime movie format. The website will be updated in the near future with tours in Flash, which is more universally supported by web browsers and provides a better user experience e.g. controls are overlaid on the screen to allow the user to zoom in and out of the tour.

So, if you want to give visitors to your website a unique view of your university, I would highly recommend the friendly staff at FullVisual!

It was a great pleasure to work with St Andrews University. Over the next few months more virtual tours will appear on the University website. We will keep you posted on any updates.
