Narrative Research And Practical Creation Of VR Documentaries

Since 2016,VR technology has gradually been applied to documentaries.The audience's familiarity with VR is getting higher and higher.The quality and quantity of documentaries are increasing year by year.They have gained public attention and recognition both at home and internationally.Social influence is also growing.While a large number of documentaries have entered the market,there are many problems.Many creators just stayed on the surface level of the viewing experience without exploring the special performance techniques to promote the narrative of the documentary.VR Gradually became a marketing gimmick without soul.This paper starts from the characteristic performance of VR technology different from traditional documentary,and cuts into three aspects: narrative structure,narrative perspective and narrative language.It comprehensively and deeply studies the influence of VR on narrative,and finally creates a documentary "Floating White" and summarizes it through practice.And reflection,combining theory with practice,more powerful proof of the viewpoint of the paper.The research of this paper mainly includes six parts.The first part is the introduction.In the introduction,the author has compiled the research background of VR documentary and the status quo of domestic research,and put forward feasible research methods,pointing out the significance of the research.The second part is a summary of the new features of the VR documentary.In this part,the author analyzes and summarizes the breakthroughs in the production of VR documentary films,the diversification of communication methods and the diversification of subject matter.The third part is a summary of the narrative structure of the VR documentary.In this part,the author explains the concept and characteristics of the narrative structure,and sorts out the linear narrative structure,the plate narrative research,and the more diversified narrative structure such as interview and prose,and points out that the narrative structure is also the independent director's personal style.Show.The fourth part is a summary of the narrative perspective of the VR documentary.In this part,the author points out the perspective of the current VR documentary,and how to better display the theme through the perspective.The fifth part is a summary of the narrative language of the VR documentary.In this part,the author combines several VR works to analyze the montage application of the documentary,the processing of the sound and the expression of the long lens.The sixth part is the practical design of the works,from the previous research to the follow-up scriptselection and design analysis.Finally,this paper summarizes the problems encountered in the research and the skills to solve the problem.I hope that this research will provide some ideas and theoretical support for the application of VR technology in the narrative,and contribute to the future VR documentary.
