Broadcasted live on Saturday (Nov 30th, 2013 at 10am PST)  from xRez Studios in Los Angeles with special guests Eric Hanson & Greg Downing. As Panographers their work covers a vast spectrum of fields from visual effects, dome theater projections, to historical and geographical documentation.

Sergey Semenov from Airpano.com and Morten Boe from trueview.com.au share their award winning work and discuss how they've overcome the challenges of shooting panoramas from helicopters, octocopters, ultralights, and stratospheric weather balloons.

Oceans cover about 70% of the Earth's surface yet until recently there hadn't been an abundance of documentation in the form of underwater spherical panoramas.  Standing on a beach on a stormy day and looking out across the water it's not hard to imagine why. The ocean poses logistical, technical and physiological challenges to a panoramic photographer, whether shooting spherical panoramas and "underpans" or with specialized hybrid systems. This episode will give you an amazing glimpse into the people who have not only risen to the challenge but have created masterworks. People who have combined engineering with an unparalleled creative vision and tackled the problems from all sides. We'll dive into the nitty-gritty and hope you rise to the surface inspired.
