Production and Management of Events in
Electronic Arenas
This deliverable contains: a description of a system for mapping
data from participants to enable its flexible interpretation in
media-rich environments, thereby supporting the participation of
audience members in the interactive shaping of content; demonstrations
of a number of approaches for the control of virtual cameras in
an electronic environment so that views of activity can be appropriately
obtained; applications designed to support the directors/producers
of events in electronic arenas in mixing/editing views from virtual
cameras; technologies to provide production personnel with overviews
of activity in electronic arenas to faciliate the timely deployment
of resources for the support of events; demonstrations of novel
sound mixing and spatialisation concepts for electronic arenas along
with tools to enable the interactive composition of music as content;
and a presentation of a novel tangible interface solution to realise
a number of these technologies in an accessible way. Throughout
we have been concerned to critically reflect and evaluate the production
tools we have developed. In all cases this has involved their use
by media professionals who are independent of the eRENA project,
as well as, when possible and appropriate, members of the public.
Each piece of work in this deliverable is accompanied by an evaluative
appraisal based on the experiences of the users of the technologies
in question. In addition, several of the production tools developed
in this workpackage have been fed back to Workpackage 7 and employed
in public demonstrators there.
