Tailored Options for Your Production Needs

The latter includes all the essential tools of the former, but adds advanced features tailored for professional workflows. Users can customize their virtual dome environments, adjusting elements like tilt and radius while also saving custom presets for repeated use. Optimized for extensive projects, the ability to create markers and leave notes adds a collaborative dimension to the creative process.

Multiplayer Collaboration for Global Reach

One standout feature of Festoon is its Multiplayer capability, available as an in-app purchase. This option allows creators and clients to enter the same virtual space, facilitating collaborative reviews and discussions regardless of physical location. Sharing a project in real-time helps keep the creative momentum flowing while fostering an environment that encourages instant feedback and iteration.

Advanced Projection Types for Diverse Needs

FESTOON PRO extends its functionality with an extensive array of projection types, accommodating unique requirements for content delivery.

These features ensure that whether you are presenting a conceptual preview or a complete show, your content can adapt seamlessly to multiple formats.

Ideal for Distributors and Festivals

In addition to its production tools, Festoon caters to fulldome distributors, exhibitors, and festival curators through the FESTOON PLAYER. This playback tool allows for the distribution of existing fulldome content from any video or image format across pre-set virtual environments. With this flexibility, you can showcase works in various formats while preserving high-quality visual experiences for audiences.
