Found these 360 Video shooting tips in one of the feeds that I read. This is from the San Francisco Chronicle Travel section.

Social Video at YouTube
One of the assignments in our Interactive Media Application course at MTSU is to create a short-form video for social media channels. It took a while but YouTube has finally gotten into the act.
I subscribe to a fair amount of email newsletters and this article came across my desk, How to Make YouTube Shorts for Business. Since our class is all about working for clients it seemed perfect to share with our students.
This blog was mostly created to share interesting information about technology, trends and tecniques with our students. But if others appreciate the information, so be it. Come visit the site and like and share some of the content that may interest you.
