UPDATE (3/17/2017): Thank you for such an amazing show of support on this video! We are now over 5000 plays on YouTube alone and thousands of plays on the other services too! Truly amazing! I also wanted to add an updated list of all the sites you can currently watch Constellations 360 on:

I am so excited to share with you all my new music video, a trippy, psychedelic planetarium-style 360 VR Music Video for the song “Constellations” from my newest album Head Like Fire. You can check the video out currently on Facebook, Littl Star VR, Samsung VR or on Youtube. NOTE: It is meant for VR so for the best experience, check it out with a VR Headset, either a Google Cardboard, Samsung Gear VR or any other headset that supports 360 videos… It also looks great on mobile in the 360 mode of any video app. Desktop looks cool too, but I definitely suggest VR or mobile for the best experience! And don’t forget if you’re new to this you can move the view all around in full 360 degrees! Stuff is happening at every angle, so be sure to either turn your body, tilt your phone, swipe around your phone screen with your finger, or click and drag around with your mouse!

“Constellations 360” was made by NewLine Videography and is the first of three videos I have planned with this awesome company. The idea was something that I came up with while working on the song. I could picture these constellations in a dark night sky dancing around, moving, morphing and building. The key part that got me to start seeking out a collaborator to help make this happen was the last 1/3rd of the video where the constellations begin to build star by star and then shift along with the hit of the snare drum. I had to see that vision in my head become a reality, and NewLine Videography captured it perfectly. They also came with their own set of ideas that helped flesh this thing out into a really awesome experience. I am really happy with job they did with this video, and I would definitely recommend you consider them for a video project, whether in 360 or traditional. You can check out their site at http://www.newlinevideography.com

I already showed off a demo of “Constellations 360” at this year’s Virtual Reality Festival as well as at a presentation I did for a couple classrooms at the Adelson Educational Campus. The reaction at both events were enough to let me know that we were on the right track in making something really cool and special. As I’m writing this I’ll also be showing it off at an Actor’s Networking Event this weekend in Las Vegas, and I’ve begun talks with many other organizations and event planners trying to get some more events lined up so I can continue demoing the video for people. I had such a great time demoing “An Unseen Sky VR” at events in 2015 & 2016, I am really excited to get back out there and show the video to more people. Virtual Reality has come a long way in the last couple years, but there are still so many people who have only tried it a couple times or never at all, so to be able to show them this awesome new technology is really cool.

I hope you enjoy “Constellations 360.” Please give it the thumbs up on Youtube & leave a comment. If you can share it… Even better. We can use all the help we can get on getting this thing seen. When “An Unseen Sky VR” came out it was the FIRST VR Music Video, but now there are 100s of them and more coming out every day, including ones from some of the biggest names in music. So it’ll take a lot to stand out. I have a feeling people are really going to enjoy this though. Thanks for watching.
