Sony Electronics’ ‘Visual Story’ App Features New Updates to Empower Event Photographers
Visual Story is a mobile application for professional event photographers that simplifies the process of delivering photos to their clients immediately after an event through automatic gallery creation, AI image selection and web delivery.
The new application version 1.1 for “Visual Story” offers expanded support and a new “Live gallery” feature that makes remote viewing and participation more accessible.
New Live Gallery Feature for Socially Distanced Live Events
Visual Story Version 1.1’s new Live Gallery feature allows professional event photographers to meet the growing demand for remote participation during the actual event. This enables the photographer’s clients to share photo galleries with their friends, family and colleagues, to then view photos of their event, such as a wedding, corporate, school or sporting event, in real time to create a more immersive experience.
Live Gallery helps simplify a professional workflow by allowing Auto transfer while shooting with a compatible Sony Alpha brand cameraii, automated image selection using AI, and applying edit presets to all images within a live gallery at the same time.
Live Gallery viewers can also like specific photos, which the photographer can use to choose final image selections to deliver to their client.
Upgraded Selection Options
The newly updated Visual Story app also now includes an object detection filter to easily locate images focusing on specific items such as a cake, food, tableware and jewelry.
The photographer can also choose images that are only included in a live gallery or those with likes.
Compatibility and Availability
Visual Story Version 1.1 is available now for iOS in the App Store for free and is compatible with select Sony cameras including: Alpha 7C, Alpha 7R IV, Alpha 7S III, Alpha 9, Alpha 9 II as well as Alpha 7 III (updated to firmware Version 4.0 or later), Alpha 1 and FX3i.
