In this study, we propose an ensemble engine, which is a framework for game engine optimized for visual novels genre, focusing on storytelling among various game genres. The game of Visual Nobel genre is based on multi-ending story and features branching of various scenarios according to user's choice. The proposed engine supports various multi-scenarios and multi-endings based on nodes according to the characteristics of these genres. In addition, it provides a convenient and intuitive user interface that not only enhances user immersion but also provides VR function to maximize the sense of presence. We will demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed game engine by designing the framework of a game engine suitable for this feature and actually creating variety stories automatically.

Game contents are the driving force of the digital media era. As the gaming industry grows bigger, contents technologies are also rapidly developing in both their quality and quantity, while the story sources of the contents are depleting. Accordingly, digging out new stories that can support development of the cultural contents industry is emerging as an urgent issue. Since games took roots as a form of contents in our society, negative images have outweighed positive aspects. This study aims at finding cures for the side effects from storytelling. Important factors here are how to converge the technical nature of engineering imagination and the epic nature of humanities imagination. Recently, The excavations of the story is very important. This article demonstrates cases where the oral literature, an archetypical cultural genre, provides the sources of game storytelling.

Due to development of digital technology, a concept of stage design management is being changed. In addition, stage management technique is changing a viewpoint of the audience watching a stage through the convergence of analogue and digital technology. Three-dimensional media such as LED and hologram and works combining with previous stage performances are rising, and the audience's requirements about spectacles on the stage are increasingly higher. Interaction between a stage, audiences and actors is a communication tool by a work story and its direction. In other words, stage design should newly focus on not only concluded work story but also comprehensive delivery of direction and the expression and extreme delivery. Therefore, this study aims to examine how to combine analogue and digital direction elements in the stage design. To this end, this study looks into everything the audience feels through performances and analogue and digital elements directed for performances and then analyzes and arranges them to present a possibility of various types of work performances. Stage structure, set, and lighting that are analogue direction elements are the basis of stage performance. Analogue direction elements mean a media vehicle that can differentiate except for basic direction of each work. This study aims to analyze new performance culture when analog and digital direction elements are combined through stage performance and a possibility of new stage performance. In addition, through this it desired to seek for a development possibility of Korean leisure culture and art culture. As the work cases, this study shows 10 works through actual stage performances held in Korea and introduces elements directed in those works.

Education delivers knowledge through story. On that point Storytelling is related to education. However, the problem is raised that Storytelling in school is leaning toward teachers that's why it makes students passive story listeners. Therefore, this study developed Digital Storytelling material using in the education for elementary school students. It leads them to be able to interact actively. So, I organized applicable 12 themes for 24 times training contents in after-school tutoring program because Digital Storytelling education doesn't perform in elementary school yet. If the material is used in classes, I expect to increase learners' self-expressiveness and creativity, and besides to train the ability of adapting and taking the lead in this changing society by contributing the spread of the Digital Storytelling education. Finally, in a follow-up study, it is demanded to verify an educational effect of this material and to redesign the process of these material contents through application in studying.

The purpose of this study was to investigate how Storytelling in Mathematics Instruction effects students' mathematical communication apprehension. In order to do this, I selected two grade six classes with no significant difference on the Communication Apprehension(CA) test. I applied normal story telling and digital story telling to each of the classes for ten weeks then analyzed the effects through the post CA test. As a result, for Normal Storytelling Class (NSC), there was no meaningful difference in the ex ante and ex post CA test results. However, for Digital Storytelling Class (DSC), there was a meaningful difference in regards to the communication apprehension subgroup. Also, between the two NSC and DSC groups' post CA results, there was a meaningful difference in mathematics lesson and subgroup factors. Consequently, these results suggest the appliance of Digital Storytelling helps lower CA in $6^{th}$ graders participation in math class and subgroup.

Digital transformation, which is accelerating in each area of society due to the COVID-19 pandemic, is also having a profound effect on Christian education. A representative example of digital transformation is the emergence of a digital world called the metaverse. This study understands the metaverse as an expanded space for Christian education and explores digital storytelling as a method for faith formation. It is argued that the characteristics of digital storytelling through metaverse spaces are characterized by interactivity, agency, audiovisuality, sociality, and openness, and that modification through Christian educational frames is necessary in order for this approach to be appropriated to Christian educational practice. To this end, this study examines Anne Wimberly's story-linking approach, and Mary Hess' approach on digital storytelling, which is understood as a way of faith formation for the liberation and Christian vocation through storytelling in a digital space, focusing on authority, authenticity, and agency. It is argued that Christian education on the Metaverse should be a place for change in the Christian life and formation of vocation, and a space where participants' active responses to God's grace be practiced in a digital space in a reciprocal way. This means that learners are encouraged to participate in expressive and relational education that is practiced in the form of play and creation, responding to God's initiative in the metaverse. This study argues that for digital storytelling through the metaverse to become a process of faith formation, it is necessary to connect stories of participants with the story of God's Kingdom in the expanded digital world, aim for a reciprocal space through hospitality and listening, and promote immersive participation and holistic reflection.

As digital technology evolved, digital paradigm emerged and storytelling began to evolve. Especially, since digital storytelling is the core of the digital game, it is a tendency to develop content in consideration of the strategy of transmedia storytelling at the planning stage even for IP expansion. By fusing media in a variety of ways and expanding the story, players can experience meaningful storytelling in a new media environment and game loyalty allows game developers to expand and innovate their businesses. In this study, we analyzed the case of , a proven powerful IP that has been expanding its story to various media for more than 20 years in order to investigate the transmedia storytelling strategy based on game media. I would like to take a look at the strategy of using the transmedia storytelling.

The aim of this study is to find the reasons of success and failure of digital animations in terms of 'immersion.' For the purpose, the causes of immersion were analyzed through complex comparison about concepts and stories of two animation films with similar size of budget: 'Shrek 2' which ranked number 1 in the box-office of animation and 'Mars Needs Moms' which ranked number 172 in the same category. The complex results showed that immersion becomes bigger with creativity and popularity of the characters' outer concept, diversity and organic of the characters' inner concept, and diversity and consistency of the background. Moreover, gradual arrangement of characters' appearance in the story and increasing number of the characters, and visual changes around the plot heightening with a well-organized passage increase immersion. After all, immersion of digital animation requires developing creative, diverse, and popular concept and arranging and strengthening strategic well-organized plot of parts and the whole. This is the key to convergence it.

Floor inertial forces are transferred to lateral force resisting systems through a diaphragm action during earthquakes. The diaphragm action requires floor slabs to carry in-plane forces. In precast concrete diaphragms, these forces must be carried across the joints between precast floor units as they represent planes of weakness. Therefore, diaphragm reinforcement with sufficient strength and deformability is necessary to ensure the diaphragm action for the floor inertial force transfer. In a shake table test for a three-story precast concrete structure, an unexpected local failure in the diaphragm flexural reinforcement occurred. This failure caused loss of the diaphragm action but did not trigger collapse of the structure due to a possible alternative path for the floor inertial force transfer. This paper investigates this failure event and its impact on structural seismic responses based on the shake table test and simulation results. The simulations were conducted on a structural model with discrete diaphragm elements. The structural model was also validated from the test results. The investigation indicates that additional floor inertial force will be transferred into the gravity columns after loss of the diaphragm action which can further result in the increase of seismic demands in the gravity column and diaphragms in adjacent floors.
