Gondolas of Venice

Still view · Calm · 1 minVR180 3DPremium

Sit at the water's edge in Venice, Italy, as gondolas bob by the shore under the setting sun. A gondola is up to 11 metres long and built from 280 hand-made pieces, with a lopsided hull that makes rowing with a single oar more efficient. An old Venetian law required them to be painted black, and by custom they still are.

What to expect

The camera stays in one place for the full 1 min, so nothing pans or lurches and you set the pace by turning your head. If fast motion in a headset does not agree with you, this is one of the gentler ways in.

It is filmed in stereoscopic VR180, which means depth is real: near things sit close, far things stay far, and the water reads at proper scale instead of flattening onto a screen. Look up, look to the edges of the frame, and take your time. There is nothing to steer and nothing to learn.

We tag this one relaxing, and it sits in Italy alongside the rest of what we have filmed there. It is included with a subscription.
