After being a panorama photographer enthusiasts for a few years creating VR panoramas for profit is my new purpose. My original discipline is graphic design and media arts for animation. Yet making exciting 360 VR images for Google Maps is not a wild thing to do. I enjoy the architecture and marvelous spaces. Capturing it all with a careful photo is helpful work.
We ask you to remember that many designers, artists and illustrators may not want to have their images used in any way, including in agency presentations. Any use, including “comping,” implies value that is worth compensation. Art or photography in portfolios submitted for a job should not be copied for any use, including client presentation or “comping,” without the creator’s permission. In case after case, the creator’s property rights have been upheld, and those caught engaging in these practices were penalized, paying large fines to the artists.
