Narrative Design for Mobile and Live Games

This is a comprehensive guidebook for long-term storytelling in mobile games and games-as-a-service (also known as live games). This book formalizes creative techniques of game writing and narrative design for a platform (and revenue model) that has shown drastic growth and changes over the past few years. The unique challenges of mobile games and live games are also increasingly relevant across the whole games industry. With hybrid consoles such as the Nintendo Switch cloud gaming and cross-platform titles the lines between mobile and console have begun to blur. Additionally many games now offer live support to extend player engagement. This book starts with an introduction to narrative design and the world of mobile games followed by a deep dive into open-ended and seasonal storytelling. Besides the creative aspect of development it covers areas of production such as documentation collaboration and monetization. To illustrate its solutions it uses examples from video games and other media specifically screenwriting for TV shows. This book will be of great interest to all game narrative and writing professionals working on mobile and live games. | Narrative Design for Mobile and Live Games

Smart Mini-Cameras

Achieve the Best Camera Design: Up-to-Date Information on MCMsMiniature camera modules (MCMs) such as webcams have rapidly become ubiquitous in our day-to-day devices from mobile phones to interactive TV systems. MCMs—or smart cameras—can zoom adjust their frame rate automatically with illumination change focus at different distances compensate for hand shake and transform captured images. With contributions from academics and field engineers Smart Mini-Cameras discusses the structure operation principles applications and future trends of miniature mobile cameras. It compares this technology with traditional digital still cameras and explains the specific requirements of MCM components (imposed by the size or type of application) in terms of optical design image sensor and functionalities. The book describes the implementation of several active functionalities including liquid crystal auto focus (AF) and optical image stabilization (OIS). It also explores how new technologies such as the curved detector and transforming optics are stimulating novel trends including a miniature panoramic lens on mobile phones. By providing you with an understanding of the components and performance tradeoffs of MCMs this book will help you achieve the best camera design. It also answers frequently asked questions such as the importance of the number of megapixels in a mobile phone camera and the value of AF and OIS features.
