Jungle Book: Disney creates Facebook 360 videos

A new interactive promoting The Jungle Book lets Disney fans step into Mowgli’s shoes… if he had shoes.

Disney created two Facebook 360 video experiences for this weekend’s sure-to-be blockbuster, The Jungle Book, one of which puts viewers into the movie. The first video lets fans see the jungle through Mowgli’s eyes as the mancub chats with King Louie (Christopher Walken) and Baloo (Bill Murray). Users can click and drag to get different views of the scene, whether face-to-face with the giant orangutan or seeing the other animals fill the cave.
