A visualization method of time series composition in video works

Abstract

In video works, the time series of the world in the story and the order of depiction may be different. There are several techniques for describing time series changes, and these are important elements that characterize a work. In this study, we analyzed many works with time-series changes, and derived four types: reminiscence type, repetition type, group drama type, and modified type. Then, we devised a visualization method of the time series composition, and succeeded in visualizing the work features through the time series visualization graph.
