ABSTRACT
Previsualization (previs) is an essential phase in the visual design process of narrative media such as film, animation, and stage plays. In digital previs complex 3D tools are used that are not specifically designed for the previs process making it hard to use for creative persons without much technical knowledge. To enable building dedicated previs software, we analyze the tasks performed in digital previs based on interviews with domain experts. In order to support creative persons in their previs work we propose the use of natural user interfaces and discuss which are suited for the specific previs tasks.

A Collaborative Previsualization Tool for Filmmaking in Virtual Reality
CVMP '19: Proceedings of the 16th ACM SIGGRAPH European Conference on Visual Media ProductionPrevisualization is a process within pre-production of filmmaking where filmmakers can visually plan specific scenes with camera works, lighting, character movements, etc. The costs of computer graphics-based effects are substantial within film ...
A collaborative real time previsualization tool for video games and film
SIGGRAPH '12: ACM SIGGRAPH 2012 PostersThe video game and film industries use previsualization (previs) to produce preliminary animations, walk-throughs and still images of scenes, levels and other assets. Using these collaborative planning tools early in the production pipeline reduces ...
