180Labs byKF PRODUCTIONS LLCFinish the shot.I’ll finish the file.
Professional stitch, grade, and delivery for 8K VR180 from the cameras that actually look like cinema — R5C, dual fisheye, and the rest of the expensive kit.
Your timeline stays light. Mine does the lifting.

Immersive footage breaks normal post
None of this is exotic work. It is just work that most edit bays cannot physically complete before your deadline.
- 01
The files are the problem
An hour of 8K60 dual-fisheye is hundreds of gigabytes. Scrubbing it needs proxies, and building proxies at that resolution is itself an overnight job on a normal machine.
- 02
Fisheye is not footage yet
What comes off the card is two circles, not a picture. Dewarping, aligning and reprojecting to equirectangular is a calibration job, and a bad stitch line lands right where the viewer is looking.
- 03
Encoding is where deadlines die
Immersive delivery means high-bitrate 10-bit H.265 or AV1 at resolutions the format was never benchmarked on. Encodes run in hours, not minutes, and a wrong flag means running them all again.
- 04
It has to be checked in a headset
Convergence, horizon and stitch errors are invisible on a flat monitor. Every delivery gets reviewed where it will actually be watched.
Four ways people arrive here
- 01
VR creators & studios
You already know the pipeline. What you do not have is a second machine and forty spare hours per delivery.
- 02
Production companies
You shot immersive for a client and discovered nobody in the building can finish it. Hand over the card and keep your delivery date.
- 03
Brands & venues
Property tours, travel, live venues, training. You need something that works in a headset, not a flat video with a wide lens.
- 04
Editors & post houses
You took the job and the immersive part is out of scope. White label, your name on the delivery, no contact with your client.
Fixed price. Two limits. No quoting.
Every package covers stitching, color and encode. Only the length changes. Each one states a delivered limit and a source limit, so neither of us discovers a problem halfway through.

What it is like on the other side
“I handed over an hour of 8K60 dual-fisheye and got back a Quest-ready file with a clean stitch and a grade that actually survived the headset. My machine never had to touch the proxies.”
Maya R.VR creator
“We sold immersive to a client and then discovered nobody in the building could finish it. Card went to 180Labs, delivery date held, client never knew the immersive step was outsourced.”
Daniel K.Post supervisor, production company
“White label, no contact with my client, metadata already set for YouTube VR and Vision Pro. The stitch line was not sitting in the middle of the frame, which is the only thing I actually care about.”
Elena V.Editor
“Property tour shot on R5C. Flat-monitor grade looked fine; headset grade did not. They reviewed it in a headset before sending it back. That is the whole product.”
Jonah P.Brand / venue work
“Fixed price, paste a Drive link, 72 hours. No discovery call. The encode did not come back with the wrong spatial flags, which is how most of these jobs die.”
Aisha T.Studio producer
“I can shoot the dual fisheye. I cannot babysit an overnight proxy job and a six-hour AV1 encode. That split is why I use them.”
Chris M.Freelance DP

Classroom: learn the whole pipeline
A monthly membership with every lesson on editing VR180 — from the first stitch to the file that plays in a headset. New lessons every month, taught on real footage.
- 01
Stitching and alignment
Dual fisheye to equirectangular, lens profiles, and fixing the seam and the vertical disparity that make people take the headset off.
- 02
Editing in 180°
Cutting when the viewer controls the frame: pacing, transitions that do not break presence, and a timeline that stays fast with 8K sources.
- 03
Color for the headset
Grading for a screen an inch from the eye. Matching both eyes, Rec.709 against HDR, and checking it in the headset instead of on a monitor.
- 04
Audio that follows the head
Spatial and head-locked audio, what each platform supports, and how to keep the mix from collapsing when the viewer turns around.
- 05
Encode and delivery
Bitrates, codecs, and the spatial metadata each platform expects — Quest, YouTube VR, Vision Pro — so the file plays right the first time.
- 06
Shooting for the edit
Camera height, distance, lighting and movement decisions on set that save hours in post. The problems you fix before pressing record.

Brand advice, over chat
Send us what you have — a logo, a name, a palette, a channel that does not look like you yet. We answer in writing, ask what we need to ask, and end with notes you can hand to any designer.
- 01
You write first
What you have, what is not working, and where the brand has to live: headset thumbnails, a storefront, a channel banner.
- 02
We ask, then answer
A few questions back, then a straight read: what holds up, what fails and why. Replies within one business day.
- 03
You leave with notes
Options ranked with their trade-offs, written down. Keep them, act on them, or hand them to whoever does the work.
- You
Our logo looks fine on the site but disappears on headset thumbnails. Do we need a new one?
- 180Labs
Probably not a new one. At 64px the wordmark turns to mush and the thin weight loses against busy frames. Can you send the files and two thumbnails where it fails?
- You
Sent. We also use three blues and never know which one is ours.
- 180Labs
Keep the darkest — it is the only one that holds on both light and dark frames. Next: a solid mark for small sizes, the wordmark only above 200px. Full notes by tomorrow.

What if I go over the source limit?
Nothing breaks and nothing gets cancelled. You either move up a package or add a source block at a fixed rate. You are told the difference before any work starts, never after delivery.
How do I send footage that large?
You do not upload anything here. You paste a link to wherever it already lives — Drive, Dropbox, WeTransfer — on the screen before payment. Nothing to install and no account to create.
How many revisions are included?
Revision rounds are included in every package. Fixes to stitching, alignment or encoding errors are not revisions — those are simply the job, and there is no limit on them.
Can you sign an NDA?
Yes, before payment. Send it over and it gets signed the same day. White label work is normal here: your client never learns this step existed.
What about a rush job?
Ask first. Rush capacity depends on what is already in the render queue, and you will get a straight yes or no rather than an optimistic maybe.
