Requirements for the HDR Image Blending Project

We were required to process these images and create a 360-degree HDR panorama stitching; for marketing and online purposes, as well as converting daytime images to twilight backgrounds for a more varied presentation.

  • Before starting with the main part of the project, the client requested we complete a trial period.
  • The trial period was broken up into two phases, where we worked on images provided via Dropbox and a second live session where the images were shared via FTP.
  • Upon the successful completion of this step, we moved onto the main section of the project.
  • Our team of 5 resources began stitching the selected images together to create a panoramic view.
  • Next, we converted the day shots to twilight shots using Photoshop.
  • Once done, we shared the finished jpeg files with the client through SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol)

We took extra steps to ensure the client understood our work. In case we missed out on some area, we worked on it and sent it within 4 hours.
