Abstract

The industry of virtual reality has received huge attention again after releasing the advanced Head Mounted display Devices, such as, the Oculus Rift VR, Samsung Gear VR, and PlayStation VR. However, almost VR contents studios concentrating on the only visual stimulus, before getting the diversity of genre. We found that the reasons of this phenomenon were lacking of enough time for profound studies, developments, and seeking resources. Therefore, this research suggests that the designing method about VR contents through the game resource, as a structure of story, which can handle the visual flow and the psychological commitments, to improves VR industry. Also we established the theoretical base of various VR contents planning and producing for game designers.

오귤러스 리프트와 같은 새로운 HMD기기 출시 이후 가상현실 산업은 다시 세간의 주목을 받고 있으나, 아직 콘텐츠의 다양성은 미비하며, 일부 시각적 몰입만이 극대화된 콘텐츠가 다수인 상황이다. 물론 이와 같은 일부 콘텐츠로의 편중 현상은 아직 새로운 미디어 기반의 콘텐츠 개발을 위한 심층적인 연구에 필요한 충분한 시간 및 재원을 충족시키지 못한 것이 그 원인이라고 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 VR콘텐츠 산업의 지속적 발전을 위한 콘텐츠의 다양성 확보를 위해 대중에게 가장 거부감이 없으면서, 시각적 몰입 외에도 심리적 몰입 요소를 적용할 수 있는 게임의 요소 중 이야기구조를 선정하여 'VR게임 콘텐츠 기획 방법론'을 제시, 향후 다양한 VR콘텐츠의 기획/제작을 위한 이론적 토대를 마련하였다.
