VR180 yourworkstationcan't finish
Stitching, color and encode for footage that stalls a normal edit bay. You shoot it — the heavy machine is my problem.

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.

Four steps, no meetings
- 01
Pick a package
The next screen shows exactly what that package covers and asks three questions about your project. No discovery call, no quote to wait for.
- 02
Paste a link and pay
A link to wherever the footage already lives — Drive, Dropbox, WeTransfer. Then card details, and that is it. The clock starts when the download completes.
- 03
It gets processed
Stitch, color, encode, and a full review in a headset before anything is sent back to you.
- 04
Delivery
Masters and platform-ready encodes, with the projection and metadata already set for where you are publishing.
Footage stays where it already lives — Drive, Dropbox, WeTransfer

Before you buy
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.
