FPV Shot
Because of the amazing electronic stabilization skills of 360 cameras and the recorded 360 video, it is possible to reframe the video, so that it looks like you are flying a FPV drone.

POV Shot
Because of the 360 sperical video recording you have full control of all your perspective parameters + the electronic image stabilization is stabilizing and balancing your POV Shot automatically.

Invisible Selfie Stick
If you record a 360 video, it is merged together at least of 2 videos or more. The adding process is called stiching. At this stiching process the selfie stick is removed out of the video.

360 Orbit Shot
Take your 360 camera, mount it on the Selfie stick and swing it around your head. Because of the invisible selfie stick and the electronic image stabilization, which leads to a horizontal lock, it looks like a drone is cycling around you.

3rd Person Perspective
Mount your 360 camera on a teleskop and extend it. This effect looks like you playing a Computer Game in the 3 Person view.

360 Timelpase
Set up your 360 camera were ever you want and start recording a 360 timelapse video. Now you have the possibility to reframe it and create a motion timelapse.

Dive Shot
To create the “dive shot”, raise the camera above you and then quickly pull it down to the ground.

Hyperlapse
Walk around with your 360 camera were ever you want and record a video. In post production you can speed up the video and create a hyperlapse.

Tracking Shot
Your 360 camera is filming the whole environment around you, so you have the possibility in post- production to track any object you want.

Tiny world
This idea is 360 camera sterotyped and very often used. You can use the effect when you move around and the environment around you is changing, or when the camera is set up fixed and objects move around the camera.

Vertigo/ Dolly Zoom Effect
To reach this effect, walk straight approach an object. In post-production, you have to change the zoom value to create the vertico effect.

360 lookaround
Hold up your 360 camera or mount it on a pole- Stick and walk around. In post-production you can change the pan angle and create a 360 lookround. This 360 video idea is perfect, if you want to capture the whole environment around you for you viewer.

Split screen
With a 360 camera you are filming the whole area around you. If you want to show the viewer different perspectives at the same time, you can create a split screen.

Top-down perspective
Point the perspective downwards to get the top-down look. Because of the invisible selfie stick, it looks like a drone is following you around.

Time Freeze
To do this, just use a still image. Now you can add a motion by changing the perspective with your reframing tool, so it looks like you moving around in the frozen moment.

Tilt Shot
You can easily reframe your 360 footage and tilt up or down your perspective.

360 Roll
You only have to change the roll parameter. The 360 roll is a great idea to pump up your videos, or to use it for a transition.

Inverted tiny planet
This shot is similar to the “tiny planet”, only inverted.

Tiny planet flip
This is a combination of the tiny planet and the inverted tiny planet shot.

Enter planet shot
Here you simply enter the tiny planet by zooming in.

Grenade Shot
Take your 360 camera, and throw it in the air. In post- production you reframe the video, so that it looks like a greande is exploding.

[charlesnetzler]

Awesome ideas, I can’t wait for 360 cameras to get a slightly better sensor as although they are quite good, you can still get some blotchy looking pixels.

Nice da haben viele klug mitgemacht und ein Ergebnis geliefert was einfach und leicht zu bedienen ist!

[Trinitos]

the best insta360 showing I've seen so far

[securiosityy]

These are awesome! Will definitely try some out. Thank you! I particularly liked how the "invisible" selfie-stick couldn't get rid of its shadow. :) I guess that's a challenge for the manufacturers.
