Towards Analysing the Interaction between Quality and Storytelling for Event Video Recording

摘要

Multi-camera video recordings of events such as theatre or other stage performances are difficult to realize in a non-professional environment. Laymen are untrained in camera work. This can for example be remedied by a production process with high-resolution cameras. Using the recordings during post-production, manually or automatically clipped image sections from long or medium long shots can serve for different types of scene representations. Medium close or close shots in storytelling allow the events to be experienced more closely and intensively but have less resolution, with noticeable loss of quality for the viewer. An online study was conducted to evaluate quality and preference for three versions of the same scene with shots created by different crops, collecting qualitative information to understand the reasons viewers gave for their preference.
