Making a Panorama
From an Existing Panoramic Image
You can create a QTVR panorama in one of two ways using QuickTime VR Authoring Studio:
m by first creating a single panoramic image with a 3D rendering or CAD application or a
panoramic camera, and then converting the image to a QTVR panorama using the
Panorama Maker
m by capturing a series of images and then stitching the images together using the
Panorama Stitcher
This chapter shows you how to use the Panorama Maker.
It’s recommended that you learn the features of the Panorama Maker by using the panoramic
image provided on the
QuickTime VR Authoring Studio CD. Once you have mastered using
the Panorama Maker, see Chapter 8, “Creating Source Material,” for tips on creating your
own images.
