Hatch Show Print

Description

In operation since 1879, historic letterpress shop Hatch Show Print designs and prints 500 to 600 handcrafted posters each year. Visit the shop in this 360 video.

What Works Well

This video allows the viewer to explore one of the south’s oldest running printing presses, one that has run off show posters for many historically significant plays, lectures and popular musical performances.

Level of Guidance

Guidance Level 4
What does this mean?

The Level of Guidance indicates how much the creator has imbued the video with a sense of at what the viewer should be looking.

For instance, a Level 1 video would mean that the camera has been left in place while life happens around it, allowing you, as the viewer, to simply observe. A Level 2 video might incorporate subtle visual, textual or audible hints or simple transitions. A Level 3 video would rely on a handful of hints and transition. A Level 4 video would employ multiple hints and dialogue. And a Level 5 video would rely on all of the above as well as a narrative arc that pushes the viewer forward.

Another way of looking at this would be how much production went into the video if you are considering making one of your own like it.
