Designing an Adaptive Assisting Interface for Learning Virtual Filmmaking

In this paper, we present an adaptive assisting interface for learning virtual filmmaking. The design of the system is based on the scaffolding theory, to provide timely guidance to the user in the form of visual and audio messages that are adapted to each person's skill level and performance. The system was developed on an existing virtual filmmaking setup. We conducted a study with 24 participants, who were asked to operate the film set with or without our adaptive assisting interface. Results suggest that our system can provide users with a better learning experience and positive knowledge harvest.
