As if there wouldn't be enough sea gulls on Norderney, I've added an animated one and spiced the video up with lens flares.
Model: skfb.ly...
Camera: Samsung Gear 360 (2016) mounted on a 3 m selfie stick to get some drone look.
Very nice overview effect but what a shame to restrict the 360 panoramic format with the skimpy 9:16 when we see the show on a computer. It's like looking through a window with the shutters 3/4 closed

Je suis d'accord avec Vincent, filmer comme cela gâche un peu le paysage qui aurait pu être très beau si le smartphone avait été orienté différemment.

Thank you all!
Vincent and le beau jojo I understand your objections. I was hesitant at first, too. Now I see it as the possibility to make more reveals in a video, which keeps the viewer engaged. In 16:9 everything is very much in plain sight - very difficult to hide. And besides horizontal videos aren't clicked very often and the likes are very measly. Could be, that I make bad videos for the general taste. In vertical format there's a rush of clicks and people are more willing to like your work - which I find very nice for me and the reach for BT. Kind of a win-win.

This looks VERY real. Amazing!
How about learning the bird special tricks, like for example letting him fly through the opening (the "counter" or "aperture") of the letter o, d or e? That will really amaze everyone because that's very difficult to do in real life. And pretty impossible when the text is also floating in the air!
