Media Studio

Not video-only. Sellers can build a disclosed simulated 3D view from listing photos alone, or from photos + a slow walkaround video. Video frames get cleaned (dupes / blur / dark); buyers still see the original stills on high-value lots.

Photos

Still shots of the specimen — enough for a basic sim 3D.

Video

Optional 360° walkaround — extra frames for better coverage.

Buyer view

Simulated 3D + originals on the listing detail page.

Opens the demo lot with a jump link to the interactive tumble (drag / rotate buttons). Not a laser mesh — photo-orbit preview.

Open T. rex tooth — Hell Creek, Montana → 3D tumble

How to test this page: upload several listing photos → Build tumble from photos. Optionally add a short .mp4/.mov. Demo mode simulates processing (timed, not real ML) and shows an interactive photo-orbit preview on this page.

Seller media

Photos first — video optional

Upload listing photos (required for a useful tumble). Optionally add a slow walkaround video. This demo simulates reconstruction — not real ML or a laser mesh — then shows an interactive photo-orbit preview you can drag.

A 30–60 second slow 360° video plus a few close-up photos is the lowest-friction seller workflow. For high-value fossils, still require the original photos and show them beside the 3D view.

Listing context

Example: T. rex tooth — Hell Creek, Montana

Photos loaded: 0 (demo will assume 28 if you only upload video)

Let buyers view original videoOriginal file is preserved. Recommended for trust when you add a walkaround.

1. Upload listing photosJPG / PNG / WebP · up to 36 files · 12 MB each. Aim for 4+ angles (front, back, sides, top/underside, scale).

Recording checklist (optional video)

Slowly walk around the item in a full circle
Capture top and underside when possible
Keep lighting consistent; avoid reflections
Include a ruler or scale reference

Ideal length: 10–90s · 1080p · MP4 or MOV · max 250 MB

2. Upload walkaround video (optional)Accepts .mp4, .mov. Extra frames for coverage — not required if you already have enough photos.

All sample lots with a 3D / reconstruction block

Each link jumps straight to the tumble block on the sample listing.
