Workshop on Research Prototyping for Games Description: For this workshop, we invite participants to bring both their research questions and the prototypes built to answer them. The day will be dedicated to demonstration and discussion, with ample time for collaboration and comparison of practice, method and result. Organizers: Mirjam P Eladhari (Gotland University) - mirjam.eladhari@hgo.se Elina M.I.

Workshop on Procedural Content Generation in Games Description: This workshop is devoted to procedural content generation, i.e. the automatic generation of content (such as levels,maps, rules, textures, stories, items...) in games. Both experimental, theoretical, practical and critical work is welcome Organizers: Julian Togelius (IT University of Copenhagen) - julian@togelius.com Joris Dormans (University of Amsterdam) - jd@jorisdormans.nl
Play Experience Workshop - Reconciling PX Methods Description: The workshop is scheduled as a 1-day workshop held at Raleigh, North Carolina co-located with FDG May 29, 2012. This workshop will bring together researchers interested in GUR (Games User Research), including game evaluation, player experience, game-user research, game telemetry, think aloud, observed behavior, heuristics, metrics, and psycho-physiological measurements. The main goals of the workshop and the expected outcomes are to bring the community together and discuss the methods and applications of the methods involved with Games User Research on the design process.

Workshop on Intelligent Cinematography and Editing Description: The use of expressive communication idioms from traditional visual media within 3D environments shows potential to extend the communicative power of films into games and virtual worlds. Virtual cinematics play a role not only for entertainment, but also for training, education and many other contexts. This workshop intends to collect researchers from fields including computer graphics, AI, psychology and others interested in virtual cinematography. Organizers: Michael Young (co-chair, NC State University) - young@csc.ncsu.edu Arnav Jhala (co-chair, UC Santa Cruz) - jhala@cs.ucsc.edu Magy Seif El-Nasr (Northeastern University) - magy@sfu.ca Joseph Magliano (Northern Illinois University) - jmagliano@niu.edu Paolo Burelli (IT University of Copenhagen) - pabu@itu.dk
