In addition, the conversion of storyboards to motion picture cinematography consumes time and money. We propose a more advanced tool than storyboards: the Shot Evaluation and Development System, which not only reduces the time and cost of live action shooting, but also helps a director to increase his or her artistry and creativity through the exploration of placements and movements of actors and cameras that best suit the storytelling. Because the system includes the motion of virtual cinematography, it is better than storyboards at communicating with cinematography departments in live action shooting. The pace of a moving shot along with the movements of actors, generated by motion data, influences the way a director orders shots to develop an appropriate rhythm in a sequence, and that helps a director make a proper judgment in developing a scene at the pre-production stage of filmmaking.}, pages = {592--603}, title = {Director-Oriented Shot Assessment and Evaluation in Virtual Cinematography}, volume = {59}, year = {2005} }
