---|---|---|
Interactive plots support the creation of engaging stories or games that are meaningfully interactive. The authors describe a novel multimedia presentation method for interactive plots that dynamically links story content with appropriate presentation styles. This method accepts at each point in time a set of interactions between the story or game characters. It then analyzes these interactions to identify interesting dramatic situations and enrich them with appropriate multimedia effects. These effects serve to increase suspense and emphasize plot developments during story delivery. They are using this method for the design and real-time direction of interactive entertainment systems. |
