Description: A story in five parts, from Secret Location and Banger Films, Welcome to Wacken invites you to experience the festival through the eyes of the fans and truly feel why Wacken is the Mecca for metalheads everywhere.
Review: There is a golden rule to follow if you plan to charge for 360 video content like ‘Welcome to Wacken’ is and that rule is to make sure that quality is at least 5K and as smooth as a glass table. Sadly it seems the makers of ‘Welcome to Wacken’ missed that memo and went for something that I can only describe as filled with a cheap 360 camera that probably cost less than £50. When you say the videos are 3DVR stereoscopic you had better make sure they are and from what I can tell it wasn’t and even if it was I just don’t think it is worth paying anything for what is essentially a trailer for a music festival.
