Abstract
Currently, the main shooting equipment used for circular-screen movie production is the multichannel reflective camera system. However, this equipment is cumbersome, the playout method is complex, and the cost of production is very high. To overcome these shortcomings, this study proposes a panoramic video method for producing circular-screen movies. Three key problems of using the panoramic video method are studied and solved: panoramic video flattening, the hardware and software components of a panoramic circular-screen movie playout system, and a playout algorithm for panoramic circular-screen movies. The study gives an example of a panoramic circular-screen movie and compares the features of panoramic circular-screen movies and traditional circular-screen movies. The comparison shows that the equipment used for shooting panoramic circular-screen movie is lightweight, simple to operate, and low cost. These features will promote the development of circular-screen movies.
