Company Overview
SpinMe is a company focused on photographic services and solutions, in particular 360 and 3D product photography.
Our company combines technical know-how with photographic expertise to produce imaging solutions. We believe that our business is unique, because of the hybrid mix of people we have on our team; from photographers to software and web developers.
When we began creating 360 spin images, we learnt that the process of capturing so many images is not as straight forward as it might seem. Capturing, managing and editing thousands of images - the result of a good day's shoot - is a challenge.
We started to create small software programs to help automate parts of the process; one to download images from the camera automatically, another to rotate images if required, another to output them to Flash .swf files and so on.
Pretty quickly, we realised that combining these tools would create an interesting and very useful program and so SpinMe Studio was born several years ago.
Hardware is also a very important aspect to 360 product photography; robust, durable and automated equipment is needed for a high-volume studio, as any professional photographer will tell you.
Turntables and other mechanical equipment must be built to a very high standard and over-engineered to withstand thousands of hours of use. Lighting techniques are important as is the equipment, which must be able to work hard for long periods of time, as we discovered early on after a number of broken flash generators.
We believe that we have discovered the best mix of hardware and software for our studios, and would also like to help you setup yours. That's why we have teamed up with Foto Robot to supply their 360 studio equipment.
