RESEARCH QUESTION:
Do the pre-existing methodologies in film and theatre lend themselves for the development of narrative content in first-person point of view Spherical Video?
ABSTRACT:
This Thesis represents my findings from practical and theoretical research on spherical video in the first person point of view within the context of developing methodologies of constructing narrative.
In doing so I explore various established cinematic and theatrical practices in consideration of the relationships between narrative and medium. Theoretical data from this process is being applied in the form of practical exploration utilizing a self-constructed spherical recording device. In the conclusion of my research, and supplemental to my thesis, I present a final piece of original narrative that was written, directed and edited by myself in which I am using narrative techniques in response to my theoretical and practical findings. By doing so, I hope that the body of my research will speak to the emerging methodology of narrative technique in spherical video.
