RESEARCH EXPERIENCE
Jan.2021 – Jan.2024
Yunnan Minority Dance Digital Performance Creativity and Display System Based on VR
Participated in advisor’s project (National Key Research and Development Program of China)
Focused on digitalization, creative choreography, display, and popularization of ten kinds of ICH dances.
Responsible for dance motion capture, character modeling, and binding skeletons. Interviewed dance inheritors and collected more than 300 materials at Beihang University Yunnan Innovation Institute.
My undergraduate graduation research was based on this project, exploring ICH Dance in the Combination of Virtual and Reality Interaction Design – Taking Bronze-Drum Dance for Example.
