Abstract

This paper describes aspects which are important for camera positioning in cinematic virtual reality. For our findings, we took a closer look at proxemics, the study on how humans behave in regard to space and distances. We explored well-known shot sizes used in traditional filmmaking and put them in relation to proxemics distances. The results were adapted to camera distances in cinematic virtual reality.
