Moody: Haptic Sensations to Enhance Mood in Film Music

Published:04 June 2016Publication History

ABSTRACT

In this paper we present Moody, a haptic wearable prototype intended to enhance mood music in Film through haptic sensations. Moody is the design resulting from an exploratory study aimed at finding new ways to enrich emotions in film entertainment. The work is aimed at designing expressive haptic patterns to heighten suspense and excitement in those movie scenes where the music score amplifies what can't be shown, and that, is the mood.
