Abstract:

The combination of virtual reality (VR) technology and documentary style creates VR documentaries with distinctive image characteristics. This kind of image with its special spatial interaction, sense of presence, and immersion counters the one-way cognitive thinking of traditional documentary and reshapes its media properties with VR technology, which in turn generates new perception, identity, emotional experience, and understanding in the context of virtual immersive documentary image dissemination.

Key to this project is an understanding of the role documentary films have played within societal movements. By learning from the larger history of impact production, this article

Based on a nuanced understanding of immersion and sense of presence (SoP) as two key aesthetic effects that the application of virtual reality (VR) to cinema is believed to innovate, this paper develops the concept of synthetic vision as fundamental to understanding the visual experience of VR media, particularly VR documentaries. The concept contends that viewers’ experience in VR is based on two visions that seemingly contradict each other: first, a disembodied vision that transports them to a simulated world, and second, an embodied vision guaranteed by the freedom to control kinesthetic mo

Abstract Volumetric Video is a novel technology that enables the creation of dynamic 3D models of persons, which can then be integrated in any 3D environment. In contrast to classical character animation, volumetric video is authentic and much more realistic and therefore ideal for the transfer of emotions, facial expressions and gestures, which is highly relevant in the context of preservation of contemporary witnesses and survivors of the Holocaust.

Abstract:

Scholars have studied the role of technology in humanitarian crises and have noted an increase in positive attitudes and behavior. Of interest to us is Virtual Reality (VR). We set out to understand the role of VR technology and its relationships with empathy, sympathy, and donation intention in case of the Syrian refugee crisis. We conducted two experimental studies to examine these relationships, where participants watched “Clouds Over Sidra” a VR film for the United Nations. The participants in the VR condition watched the documentary using VR, while in the non-VR condition, participants wa

Abstract:

Animal studies show that novelty boosts memory for unrelated information encountered shortly after. Evidence for this effect is lacking in humans. Using Virtual Reality (VR) to simulate spatial novelty has yielded conflicting results. Schomaker et al. (2014) found that word recall was higher when encoding followed novel rather than familiar exploration, which we failed to replicate in two prior studies. Instead, we observed enhanced recall after initial VR exposure. This study examined the broader effect of VR experience on memory. As VR could improve memory, we included 35 younger adults and

Abstract:

What potential does virtual reality have for the presentation of an archive? The essay explores this question using the example of the Virtual Migration Museum project of the Documentation Center and Museum of Migration in Germany (DOMiD). This VR project, which has been launched and keeps evolving since 2017, allows users to explore a three-dimensional fictitious cityscape with several buildings in which real objects from the archive of the DOMiD association are embedded in digitized form through three-dimensional scanning or as replicated digital models. The archival objects in the collectio

Abstract:

After decades of research, technological development as well as few discouraging setbacks, virtual reality (VR) appears to be on the cusp of its settled adoption. The incorporation of VR technology into the palette of everyday communication media is not only exciting for filmmakers and game designers, but also for every manner of storytellers: documentarians, journalists, educators, scientists – all professions involved in clarifying surrounding us reality and communicating about it. They all discovered that social change can be valuably stimulated by development of new technology – technology

Abstract:

Interactive documentary (i-docs), an innovative hybrid form at the intersection of film, journalism, and digital games, has matured beyond its first wave of experimentation, gaining distinction among the most highly evolved immersive media of the twenty-first century. The latest generation of i-docs is currently winning accolades at both major film festivals and game design summits. This study charts the evolutionary trajectory of North America’s most recent and influential wave of i-docs in works mostly appearing since 2015. It culturally situates i-docs as immersive media that extend experim

Abstract:

In this paper we consider how grassroots community partnerships can transform academic spaces into creative and interactive sites of Indigenous agency and advocacy. Focusing on two projects based in Tiohtià:ke (Montreal), we bring these initiatives into a discussion that takes into account the larger context of documentary filmmaking in the territory often referred to as Québec. We address how each project uses care and collaboration towards a practice of visual sovereignty. We start with a discussion of the First Peoples’ Postsecondary Storytelling Exchange (FPPSE), an Indigenous led, multi-i

Abstract:

AbstractEmpathy is a key contributor to moral, pro-social behaviour and an important element of socio-emotional learning (SEL). Schools deliver SEL programmes during adolescence to develop a range of skills including empathy. As education becomes increasingly digital, more research is needed to understand the role digital technologies may play in students’ empathy development. Virtual reality (VR) has been touted as a possible way to provide more realistic experiences to enhance empathy. To investigate this, an intervention of an empathy-provoking documentary (Clouds over Sidra) was shown to a

Abstract:

While discussing our current work-in-progress project, Virtual Aquapolis, we will consider two lines of inquiry: VR provides unique opportunities to explore inaccessible spaces, embody non-human forms, and offer radical new perspectives. How might we tell stories and create experiences that speak to this ecological moment using VR? This presentation explores the potential for VR to offer novel ways to connect with, or even embody, flora, fauna, environments and ecosystems. The rules for creating VR environments are still evolving: the grammar, aesthetics, and experiential possibilities develop

Abstract:

In 360-degree virtual reality, news stories put the user (who consumes news through a head-mounted display) inside the story. The present study tries to find out whether select 360-degree video documentaries make the users empathize with the story, situation, and people involved in the story. On the other hand, in the news media, journalists and documentary filmmakers work hard to get the news out to the public. People who read the news have to understand how journalists present the news. In 360-degree documentaries, there is no such boundary. This is why the current study is significant in de

Currently, VR and AR film practice are expanding through the use of new techniques capable of producing footage that can be implemented in interactive audiovisual virtual discourses. Volumetric video is one of these resources, with which some authors have begun to create the very first interactive VR and AR movies. Many of these works have a prosocial purpose, as means to move the audience having an impact on society.This work is based on a methodology structured in three phases. The results presented have been obtained from the study of Terminal 3, the first interactive augmented documentary,

This research explores the use of Virtual Reality (VR) as a tool for the cognitive and psychosocial development of students with high abilities and giftedness, in the context of inclusive education. Considering the need for educational practices that value the specificities of these students, the study examines the impact of VR on meaningful learning and social interaction, addressing the challenges of its implementation. The main objective is to investigate how VR can enhance the integral development of these students. Methodologically, the gifted neoperspectivist paradigm was adopted, which
