Research On The Interactive Mechanism Of Interactive Documentary Under The Influence Of Film Viewing Motivation

Recently,with the continuous upgrading of science and technology,more and more products or systems are designed with interactive technology.The documentary is no exception,as evidenced by the emergence of Interactive Documentary.Interactive documentaries are divided into various types according to different interaction logics.Based on the integration of various classifications,this paper divides interactive documentaries into:Hypertext,Particitatory,and Immersive.The user experience generated in the process of interacting with the product is the standard for measuring the quality of an interactive product or system.All the interaction design products that have passed the test of time are works with excellent user experience.As a result of behavior inspired by a certain motivation,the premise of user experience is to stimulate the user’s motivation to view.This study summarizes the previous research results on viewing motivation.Based on the framework of self-determination theory,the user’s viewing motivation is divided into two parts:intrinsic and extrinsic motivation.This paper uses the case analysis method to analyze the mechanism of interactive documentary under the influence of film viewing motivation.The research results show that different forms of interaction can stimulate users’ different psychologically motivations for participation.In terms of stimulating the user’s internal motivation,the interface design of the hypertext interactive documentary adopts the dialogue tree mechanism and the "direct manipulation"setting to conduct the user’s autonomous interaction.In order to give participants greater freedom of choice,the immersive interactive documentary uses 3D modeling to restore the scene,and uses actual audio to help users realize the first-person perspective through virtual reality technology.Stimulate empathy and compassion in users while feeling a greater sense of physical ownership and self-presence.In terms of shaping the user’s sense of competence,hypertext interactive documentaries incorporate game thinking,and give users "pure" positive feedback and the opportunity to acquire knowledge through"role-playing" and answering questions,so as to satisfy their self-affirmation needs.In order to meet the user’s need to maintain a sense of belonging with others,hypertext interactive documentaries have adopted one of the ten principles of interaction design,using the map as an interface metaphor,to arouse the user’s spatial awareness in narrative activities,thereby enhancing interaction with others People in different spaces and connections between cultures.Immersive interactive documentaries break the boundaries of the screen through Augmented Reality(AR)technology,linking virtual and real spaces.The visual,auditory and tactile sensory systems go straight to the heart,making users nostalgic for the past and the present.Compared to intrinsic motivation,extrinsically motivated activities have very specific and clear goals.Such as solving a problem,generating a new point of view,etc.,hypertext interactive documentaries achieve this through online interaction.Some allow users to ask and answer questions online in the form of audio,while most prefer to set off-site links,directing users to social media platforms for communication.The deeper level of internalization of extrinsic motivation is to realize the adjustment of users’ identification.In order to stimulate users’ resonance and identification,some hypertext-based interactive documentaries use dynamic data visualization to show their views and persuasion in numbers.A user whose opinions and values are conveyed sets the stage for the rest of the narrative.One of the social functions of documentaries is to speak up for some public issues.Participatory interactive documentaries are committed to integrating individuals’ values identity into their sense of self,and organizing users to participate in activities that support social behavior to solve community,environment,and social issues.This method brings about dialogues across time and space,realizes the transition from identification to integration in psychology,and also enriches the expressive dimension of the documentary.Today,with more and more attention paid to user experience,the development of interactive documentaries in the future is bound to be related to user experiences brought by interaction design.In the past,there have been few studies on the motivation of watching documentaries,interactive documentaries are even less concerned with the motivation of their users to participate.Interactive documentary is the future of documentary.Here,the author hopes that this research on the relationship between user psychology and interactive mechanism can provide some useful guidance for creators.
