SkyBox makes it super-easy to generate 360 YouTube format. Mikey Borup leads us through the process in his tutorial. He uses mettle SkyBox with Element 3D, but most of your favorite 3D plug-ins will work, including mettle ShapeShifter, FreeForm Pro, Plexus, Trapcode Form and Particular. What he has to say about SkyBox: “Sky Box is pretty rad. you can create animated environment maps to use with 3D models, OR to upload 360 videos to YouTube. It will recreate your comp as an environment map. pretty sweet.”
When you upload to youtube, you’ll need Meta Data injector (its halfway down the page, under prepare for upload) https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/6178631?hl=en
