Toward a Narrative Comprehension Model of Cinematic Generation for 3D Virtual Environments
نویسنده
چکیده
Most systems for generating cinematic shot sequences for virtual environments focus on the low-level problems of camera placement. While this approach will create a sequence of camera shots which film individual events in a virtual environment, it does not account for the high-level effects shot sequences have on viewer inferences. There are systems which are based on well known cinematography principles such as the rule of thirds and other framing principals, however these usually utilize schemas or predefined shots and do not reason about the high level cognitive effects on the viewer. In this paper a system is proposed which can reason directly about these high-level cognitive and narrative effects of a shot sequence on the viewer’s mental state.

Ember, Toward Salience-Based Cinematic Generation
Automatic cinematic generation for virtual environments and games has shown to be capable of generating general purpose cinematics. There is initial work that approaches cinematic generation from the perspective of narrative instead of low level camera manipulation. In our work, we further extend this idea to take into consideration a model of user memory. Models of reader comprehension and mem...

متن کاملDarshak - An Intelligent Cinematic Camera Planning System
A virtual camera is a powerful communicative tool in virtual environments. It is a window through which a viewer perceives the virtual world. For virtual environments with an underlying narrative component, there is a need for automated camera planning systems that account for the situational parameters of the interaction and not just the graphical arrangement of the virtual world. I propose a ...
