“…All in all, these users of XR4DRAMA were particularly excited about the prospect of exploiting XR for a different purpose than what has previously been explored. Recent research [10][11][12][13][14] has focused on facilitating the creation of appealing XR stories for audiences. On the other hand, this work enables media people to use a single and complete XR solution that handles and optimizes the management of any media production, addressing its requirements for collaboration, content sharing, and realistic visualizations of remote locations.…”

“…Ever since the new wave of XR tools emerged, media organizations have been experimenting with the technology. For example, the Fader Enterprise project [10] was about building an interactive, browser-based 360/VR storytelling platform, V4Design [11,12] aimed at reusing/recycling content for 3D/immersive worlds, and MediaVerse [13] has also included immersive aspects in its quest to give users access to a wealth of media assets and co-creation opportunities. There were also smaller lab or hackathon projects such as Hidden Stories (https://innovation.dw.com/articles/hackathon-visualizing-globalinequalities-heres-what-we-came-up-with (accessed on 28 May 2023)) (in situ AR storytelling and explainer journalism), Deutsche Welle 360 World Heritage (https://www.…”

Flood management and media production planning are both tasks that require timely and sound decision making, as well as effective collaboration between professionals in a team split between remote headquarter operators and in situ actors. This paper presents an extended reality (XR) platform that utilizes interactive and immersive technologies and integrates artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to support the professionals and the public involved in such incidents and events. The developed XR tools address various specialized end-user needs of different target groups and are fueled by modules that intelligently collect, analyze, and link data from heterogeneous sources while considering user-generated content. This platform was tested in a flood-prone area and in a documentary planning scenario, where it was used to create immersive and interactive experiences. The findings demonstrate that it increases situation awareness and improves the overall performance of the professionals involved. The proposed XR system represents an innovative technological approach for tackling the challenges of flood management and media production, one that also has the potential to be applied in other fields.

A roadmap is proposed that defines a systematic approach for craft preservation and its evaluation. The proposed roadmap aims to deepen craft understanding so that blueprints of appropriate tools that support craft documentation, education, and training can be designed while achieving preservation through the stimulation and diversification of practitioner income. In addition to this roadmap, an evaluation strategy is proposed to validate the efficacy of the developed results and provide a benchmark for the efficacy of craft preservation approaches. The proposed contribution aims at the catalyzation of craft education and training with digital aids, widening access and engagement to crafts, economizing learning, increasing exercisability, and relaxing remoteness constraints in craft learning.

There is a great potential in creative industries, such as architecture and video game design, for re-using and re-purposing of digital content. Paintings, archival footage, documentaries, movies, reviews or catalogues, and various other forms of artwork can serve as sources of inspiration and design direction towards innovative designs and new concepts. In this paper, we present V4Ann, an ontology-based framework for semantically representing, aggregating and combining annotations (atoms) coming from visual and textual analysis of digital content. The aim is to structure and link data in such a way so as to facilitate the systematic process, integration and organisation of information and establish innovative value chains and end-user applications. The framework is part of the V4Design platform that aims to re-use and re-purpose existing heterogeneous multimedia content by semantically enriching and transforming assets into a 3D representation, so as to inspire and support the design, architecture, as well as 3D and VR game industries.
