The aim of this thesis was to study different types of 360-video cameras, virtual-reality glasses, 360-video platforms and the production of 360-videos. The study examined 360-video cameras and 360-video production from a beginner’s point of view with the end goal of filming and producing, if possible, a high-quality 360video of Technobothnia. This was a qualitative research study and a development project, where a 360degree video of Technobothnia was produced for marketing purposes. The development project was commissioned by the marketing department at Vaasa University of Applied Sciences as they would like to acquire a 360-video for trade fairs and digital marketing. Information for the theoretical study was gathered from internet-sources and device manuals. For the production of the Technobothnia 360-video a Samsung Gear 360-videocamera were used together with a Samsung S6 and Google Cardboard glasses.
