This paper presents a proposal for a screenplay writing framework for interactive VR feature films made using 360° video technology, presenting possible diegetic and extradiegetic interaction options on a pre-scripted story with different navigation alternatives. The interactive structure is based on the hero's journey and the classic cinematograph...

The process of authoring an interactive digital narrative has been one of the main issues in our field of studies. Throughout the history of the field, considerable attention has been given to the development and usage of authoring tools, very often disregarding the authoring process as a creative activity. In this chapter, we transcend the discuss...

In the past ten years, audiovisual creators have been working on the development of narrative experiences for extended reality (XR) technologies, especially virtual reality (VR).

Tema centrale di questo contributo è la reazione dei partecipanti alla fruizione di un Interactive Massive Open Online Course (I-MOOC) multipiattaforma la cui soluzione architetturale segue il disegno di un particolare approccio e-learning pensato per la formazione docenti sull’uso inclusivo delle tecnologie di rete. Un approccio e-learning che, fa...

Uno dei punti deboli dei Massive Online Open Courses (MOOC) è la rigidità con cui gestiscono l'interazione degli studenti con i contenuti didattici. In questo contributo vengono presentati i criteri che hanno guidato la progetta-zione e lo sviluppo di un Interactive MOOC (I-MOOC), basato sulla tecnologia dell'hypervideo e su attività didattiche non...

Zena—which means “Genoa” in genovese dialect—is the first immersive and interactive film set in Genoa. The story unfolds in a 360º environment created through Live Action. In ZENA the user plays an active role inside the narrative by interacting directly with the story: she/he decides which way to go, if she/he wants to follow or ignore the advice...

The PhD project presented in this paper introduces a proposal for an epistemological paradigm addressed to the creation of interactive immersive fiction films. In order to provide conceptual tools for the analysis and creation of a fluent and engaging interactive VR narrative, the study investigates the convergence of aesthetics, storytelling and i...
