The conclusions are as follows: the growth that is observed today in the field of media, with the advent of the new spherical video format, is actually a continuation of the development of virtual reality technology, which began in the middle of the XX century; there is a continuity of classical methods of cinema in the virtual reality format; 360° vision gives a greater potential for expressiveness and immersion in comparison with analog media. The main finding is the idea that creating an independent spherical frame has its own visual meaning and does not need verbal support.
