“…We fully implemented the proposed camerawork module in our comic generation system [9,10] developed based on the open-source SL viewer program. For this work, we adopted a typical comic layout where the order to read is in the raster order, from top-left to bottom-right, and all frames have the same size.…”

“…Comic-style summaries facilitate perceiving of main events, augmenting of personal memories, and promoting of communication among user communities. In this paper, we describe a part of our current project on summarizing user experiences in a museum located in metaverse such as Second Life (SL) [9,10]. In particular, we focus on how to perform camerawork in such an environment.…”

We present a camerawork module for representing events in a virtual museum with a comic style. The module uses four basic camera shots, i.e., internal, external, apex, and group, to compose a shot sequence of two main events happening in a museum, i.e., move and stay. This module is fully implemented in a comic generation system we have been developing for summarizing user experiences in Second Life. Visual comparison, with a baseline camerawork, confirms the effectiveness of the proposed camerawork module.

“…Metaverse research has further expanded within the tourism domain over the past decade, with an increasing focus on metaverse museums. Thawonmas and Fukumoto (2011) developed a system for automatically generating comics derived from users' visit logs at a metaverse museum. Ando et al (2012) introduced an exhibition inference system to improve the accuracy of the metaverse system in museums.…”

PurposeGrowing recognition of the metaverse has implied its far-reaching impacts on the tourism and hospitality industry. This paper sets out to detail the status of metaverse-related research in tourism and hospitality, propose intriguing directions for future studies and highlight multiple areas that call for immediate attention from practitioners in navigating the metaverse phenomenon.Design/methodology/approachThis viewpoint paper referenced the extant academic discussion on the metaverse, based on which timely suggestions for academia and practices are proposed.FindingsThis viewpoint paper presents an account of the metaverse and discusses the status of metaverse-related research in hospitality and tourism. It then proposes intriguing avenues for future research around the topics of marketing, reconceptualizing service quality, attitude and behaviors, electronic customer-to-customer interactions, transformative impacts on the society well-being and research methodology. Multiple areas that call for immediate attention from practitioners in navigating the metaverse phenomenon are also highlighted. Both scholars and industry organizations are called upon to assume some responsibility for mapping out protocols to guide the appropriate development, use and governance of metaverse worlds. Governments and policymakers are further encouraged to consider the ramifications of metaverse development for individuals and society and to devise proactive mitigation strategies.Practical implicationsThis viewpoint paper proposes several directions for future business practices in the areas of co-creation, experiential consumption, and emerging critical issues in healthcare, human resources, and social media services. It expects to inspire more discussion about the potential impacts of metaverse on the wider society. Its practical significance will further expand the theoretical foundation of the metaverse research and makes this viewpoint paper an intriguing prospect.Originality/valueThe nascent stage of academic discussion intended to guide the development of metaverse is noteworthy, which forms a notable contrast with the growing recognition of its potential of co-creating transformational experiences in hospitality and tourism. This viewpoint paper joins the current academic conversations acknowledging this phenomenon in hospitality and tourism. Provided the notable topicality and empirical relevance, the expanded scope and rich content the present viewpoint paper provides for metaverse will offer a fruitful ground for future research to tap further into currently underrepresented areas.

“…Bu kavram daha sonraki yıllarda bilgisayar oyunlarına da sıçramış ve 2010'ların ortalarında kullanıcılar için sınırlı bir sanal gerçeklik yaşam deneyimi yaratan "Second Life" oyunu ile yeni bir aşamaya girmiştir (Lynch, 2012:163;Lee vd., 2021:2-3). Second Life ile başlayan Metaverse talebi son yıllarda da genişlemeye başlamıştır (Thawonmas ve Fukumoto, 2011). Metaverse kavramına gelinceye kadar ki olan sanal evren kronolojisi Tablo 1'de verilmiştir.…”
