“…In the gaming context, Shamir et al [53] and Shuda and Thawonmas [54] propose a system to automatically generate comics from game sessions summarizing the game events. Chan et al [55] adopt a similar approach and present a system that automatically summarizes players' actions and interactions in the game World of Warcraft through comics.…”

We introduce in the present paper an operationally defined subclass within the genre of detective stories, specified on the basis of the logic programming model adopted in our Logtell project. Special attention is given to the treatment of communicative events. An SWI-Prolog plan-based tool was developed to compose consistent plots, conforming to the conventions of the genre. Seven criminal cases generated by the tool are described as illustration. It is shown, using the PlotBoard interface, how to run plan-based composition in interactive stepwise mode. We have also developed a storytelling system capable of representing the stories in the format of interactive comic books on tablet computers.

“…At the event extraction module, a scene is further divided into multiple chunks, each called an event composed of multiple actions such as fighting, chatting, and moving. After frames have been selected from those events at the frame selection module [8], the parameters for deciding frame size and shape are decided. These parameters are used together with the camera angle, camera position, and zoom position for rendering comic frames.…”

“…Since 2008, we have developed a number of techniques [7,8,9] for our comic generation system [5] that aims at automatically generating comic from game log. In our system, we adopted the same approach as in [4] where the game engine of a game of interest is used for rendering comic based on information in the game log.…”

Abstract. We propose a rule-based camerawork controller for a recently proposed a comic generation system. Five camerawork rules are derived through an analysis of online-game webcomics about Lineage 2, one rule for each of the five event types: chatting, fighting, moving, approaching, and special. Each rule consists of three parts relating to the three camera parameters: camera angle, camera position, and zoom position. Each camera-parameter part contains multiples shot types whose value indicates the frequency of their usages in the analyzed webcomics. In this paper, comic frames generated with the proposed camerawork controller are shown and compared with those generated with our previous controller based on heuristic rules, confirming the effectiveness of the proposed camerawork controller.
