Reorient Your World

to use Final Cut Pro X’s Reorient tool to shift perspective and address common alignment issues with the horizon.
Enhance Your 360 Environments
While looking around a 360 environment is engaging in and of itself, you can enhance your viewer’s experience by using the 360 Transform effect to place flat content such as logos, photos, or even b-roll footage shot with your iPhone or other camera into the sphere.
