35 Park Studio & Post
601 KB QTVR Scene
This
six-node scene was one of the first QTVR projects Craig photographed and produced,
way back in 1998. 35 Park is the video production studio he worked at located
in the old movie theater on Park Avenue in Memphis, TN. Unfortunately, the
building
has
since been demolished so this is now a photographic record of the
landmark while it was in its second life as 35 Park Studio & Post.
Be sure to look for the hotspots inside the panos for links to different areas which includde the lobby, studio, and upstairs to the post-production edit suites.
