Can I do forced perspective on the vertical axis?
I know it makes sense to do it only on the horizontal axis, but I just finished an underwate edit and need the vertical axis as well.

Hi Nico,

in Liquid Cinema you have a choice. You can do forced perspective vertically or horizontally or both. However, in VR we currently suppress forced perspective in the vertical. In the future we plan to let users override this in the authoring tool, as we have come to learn that some 360 video pieces might occur in a place where there is no horizon, like in space or in your case underwater. In 95% of the cases, vertical forced perspective in VR is undesirable as it would change the horizon on the viewer, which is why we currently suppress it, especially since the concept is new to most people. If you want to learn more about forced perspective and how to author it, check out the Tutorial Video on http://www.liquidcinemavr.com/support-articles/camera-event-editor/

Thanks
