# How to normalize 360-degree videos so that certain object / person remains in the middle?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2016-12-07)

I have multiple 360-degree clips recorded with Ricoh Theta S.

When recording I didn't think too much about orientation - where is back, where is front - it is 360-degree after all.

When editing and merging clips I realized that sometimes I'm located in in the front, in the back, on the side - it is very confusing experience.

**I need to "normalize" multiple clips - so that I'm in the middle.**

It feels achievable, I'm just wondering if there is a better, recommended, default, sure-fire way?
