비디오게임에 삽입되는 컷씬(cut-scene)은 배경스토리(back story)의 전달 또는 상황에 대한 연출 장치의 기능을 하나, 플레이어와 게임 간의 조작적 상호작용을 일시적으로 단절시킨다. 본 논문은 비디오게임 '언차티드2'의 26개 스테이지에서 플레이어와 게임의 상호작용을 이어가는 컷씬 '인터랙션 무비'에 대한 플레이어의 행동과 결과를 조사하여 그 기능을 분류하였다.

Recently, the games on the market are getting rich and excellent in the category of design and productions. The style and production quality of cut-scenes also have achieved a continuous development, so how to stand out from multiple designs and gain popularity always acts as a challenge to designers. However, such design strategy up to developers will be failed to judge whether or not design achievements are loved by players and thus cannot meet rapidly changing market demands on both in a quantity and quality. Therefore, this study holds that cut-scene design for video games must set out from user-centered design(UCD). According to literatures with respect to product market, we know that Market Pull imposes far more impacts on success in bringing new products to the market than the technology Push, hence players actually determines the success of a game in competitive game market. This study will help to enhance the immersion of playing game, including the interest and standing out the designer's message without distorting the original impression in the game publishing environment.

Cinematic camera techniques are being increasingly applied to the game development these days. In this study, the object movement and camera effect for the game development using the curve in the 3D space were discussed. The Catmull-Rom spline algorithm follows the curve more closely than the other curve algorithms. With the algorithm proposed in this study, the Catmull-Rom spline was dynamically created according to the user's input in multiple sections in the 3D space, and objects smoothly passed along the route. In addition, Cut-Scene section is specified using the Catmull-Rom spline and the object movement can be observed. The results of the study on the accuracy and efficiency of the curve showed that the Catmull-Rom spline is very efficient not only for the object movement but also for the cinematic camera technique.

This study is to reveal the meaning of the interaction between a player and a game with the approach of an operational interaction such as joystick and keyboard, and also a representational interaction that the player takes during the game. It has been usually recognized that cut-scene in existing games is just limited to the role of opening scene that delivers mainly a background story of the game, and has the only passive function that serves additionally the expression of the state of the player or the replay of the results of the player's action. But in the aspect of game-direction, the study of the player's action about the interaction movie of 'Uncharted2', for example, one of the most representative video games, shows the possible classification of interaction movie along with three functions(situation direction, induced selective-action, information transfer). As a result, it is judged that interaction movie is not an additional element for the game-play, but rather takes the function of as an interface. The effective application of interaction movie could help a smooth connection between the recognizability from the view point of the player and the playing from the main character's viewpoint, ultimately leading to a direct means to maximize the delivery of the story.
