Abstract

With the deepening application of VR technology in the field of animation, the narrative methods of VR animation have undergone significant changes compared to traditional animation. However, the relationship between narrative perspective and interactivity freedom has not yet been systematically explored. Addressing this research gap, this paper proposes a study on the adaptability of interactivity freedom under different narrative perspectives, aiming to reveal the adaptation patterns that exist between narrative perspective and interactivity freedom in VR animation. The article first analyzes the differences between VR animation and traditional animation, pointing out that VR animation achieves identity reconstruction for the audience in the virtual world through interactive narrative. Subsequently, this paper elaborates on the dynamic coupling relationship between narrative perspective and interactivity freedom, and further proposes adaptation principles for interactivity freedom under different narrative perspectives. Finally, the article concludes that narrative perspective and interactivity freedom are interdependent; designers need to flexibly combine and adjust presets to create animation works, providing theoretical reference for VR animation creation.
