1st Idea

After we were give the initial brief and shown some examples by other peoples work my first though was the theme of inside and out. I liked the possibility that you could view the outside of a building and then see the inside. That evening I went down to the sea front in Bexhill on sea and photographed the outside of one the shelters by the beach. 

Four images from the group taken to generate 360˚ panoramic.

I soon realised after looking at the pictures in photoshop and trying to blend them, that to get the flowing look of a panoramic I would need to be a lot closer to the building. The close proximity may make it difficult to identify the building, and give the feeling that I am viewing it from the outside. Secondly the building would need to be bigger. This would allow me to flatten the image and help give a better transition to the panoramic.

I still wanted to carry on with that thought, but I would need a building on a larger scale. I had taken a picture of Pevensey Castle earlier in the year and felt it would suitable for my idea.

I pass the castle on the train most days of the week and I could see that there were a lot of trees around the castle. After having a look on Google. I could see that it would be very difficult to get all the way round the outside so I have shelved the idea until I can get a smaller castle.
