GAMER /2019 MS. GAMER /2019 5 RESEARCH PHASE STAKEHOLDER INTERVIEW Stakeholder questions • Will Red Bull TV be able to sign broadcasting contracts with the major professional sports leagues (NFL, NHL, MLB, and NBA) in the future? • What are your top-rated channels and most viewed videos? • How does red bull decide to produce programs such as URBEX – Enter At Your Own Risk, and SCREENLAND explores? • How doesRed Bull TV track the audience’s data? Will we be able to access the data analysis report? • What’s the biggest challenge that Red Bull TV is facing? • What would your ideal solution look like then? • Who do you think your biggest competitor is? • What makes you better than the others? • What are your expectations for us? PROJECT BRIEF * Growth beyond the ordinary * Grow and expand audience awareness GUIDING PRINCIPLES * Always quality 5 RED BULL TV /2019 MS. GAMER /2019 5 DAVID GRAU UX/UI Design Lead at Red Bull Award-winning multidisciplinary creative with a track record of successfully delivering creative solutions across web, mobile,tv, video and print for some of the most iconic brands in the world including: YouTube, Ford, Nike, Adidas, Warner Brothers and more. Designing Locally but thinking Globally. Globally means opening yourself to other points of view—taking a genuine interest, without judging. We should be aware that there are other ways to do even everyday things that we cannot simply design from our own experience. Being culturally sensitive to other ways of thinking, to other beliefs. Premium user experience. As UX designers, we’d better put our effort into our users and try our best to figure out and fulfill the user’s needs at first place. It aims to provide positive experiences that keep users loyal to the product or brand. Additionally, a meaningful user experience allows you to define customer journeys on your website that are most conducive to business success. Think beyond the device - voice, AR & VR It’s always good to explore the natural propensity and think about design as something that we deliver based on device and form factor. Its a natural feeling given the connection most of us have with our devices. Ask ourselves what we can do to really connect with people and truly meet their needs. How does context come in to play and how do factors like location, time, proximity, capabilities, activities, and state of mind influence the way that content is displayed and consumed. 6 MS. GAMER /2019 MS. GAMER /2019 7 SECONDARY RESEARCH Secondary research gives us to use previously completed studies and apply the results to your own situation. This step helps narrow down the topic and also allows us to have an active role in conducting the research. Here are the 10 great example of inventive design and technology I find inspiring and reflect the theme around personalization. Example #1 Australia Post ------------------------------------ • No postage stamp can be more personalized and special than this • Super creative and eye-catching advertisement; • This ad allows people to put a little bit of their own identity into products and does a great job of displaying personalization. MS. GAMER /2019 7 SECONDARY RESEARCH Example #6 Black Mirror: Bandersnatch ------------------------------------ • Black Mirror: Bandersnatch is Netflix’s new interactive film, basically, a choose- your-own-adventure-style movie. • Now the audiences are able to alter the multiple versions of the story and have the ending they wish to watch. • I have not watched it yet, but I do believe interactive films are the future of entertainment. Example #7 Deepfake ------------------------------------ • Deepfake (a portmanteau of “deep learning” and “fake”) is a technique for human image synthesis based on artificial intelligence. • Deepfake videos can help improve digital literacy and allows users to easily create and share videos with faces swapped. • Deepfake could take this level of personalization to the next level by creating one- off videos that speak to each individual within the market segment. 8 MS. GAMER /2019 MS. GAMER /2019 9 COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS Red Bull TV App Features ESPN+, Youtube and TwitchTV are the three Sports TV Apps I chose to compare with Red Bull TV App. I found Red Bull is leading in terms of technology invitations such as AR, VR, and live streaming platform. Besides, the app is overall clean and pretty much a fully functioning version of Fuel TV without having to pay or put up with commercials and ads. Furthermore, the app needs to focus on mobile personalization a lot more for better user experience. For example, reviewers should be able to add comments and create their own personal content.

GAMER /2019 9 Red Bull Market Position For my comparative study, I selected three Red Bull’s main competitors, Monster, Rockstar and Gatorade to compare with it. I found Red bull’s selling price (Cost Per Ounce) is almost doubled than the others, and that makes Reb Bull the most profitable energy drinkamong these three brands. I also found despite the company’s high price strategy, their annual revenue and dollar value market share still are leading in the market which is phenomenal.

  • Automatic Generation of Text for Match Recaps Using Esport Caster Commentaries
    AUTOMATIC GENERATION OF TEXT FOR MATCH RECAPS USING ESPORT CASTER COMMENTARIES Oluseyi Olarewaju1, Athanasios V. Kokkinakis1, Simon Demediuk2, Justus Roberstson1, Isabelle Nölle1, Sagarika Patra1, Daniel Slawson1, Alan P. Chitayat1, Alistair Coates1, Ben Kirman2, Anders Drachen2, Marian Ursu2, Florian Block2 and Jonathan Hook2 1Weavr, Arena Research Cluster (ARC), University of York, York, UK 2DC Labs, Arena Research Cluster (ARC), University of York, York, UK ABSTRACT Unlike traditional physical sports, Esport games are played using wholly digital platforms. As a consequence, there exists rich data (in-game, audio and video) about the events that take place in matches. These data offer viable linguistic resources for generating comprehensible text descriptions of matches, which could, be used as the basis of novel text-based spectator experiences. We present a study that investigates if users perceive text generated by the NLG system as an accurate recap of highlight moments. We also explore how the text generated supported viewer understanding of highlight moments in two scenarios: i) text as an alternative way to spectate a match, instead of viewing the main broadcast; and ii) text as an additional information resource to be consumed while viewing the main broadcast. Our study provided insights on the implications of the presentation strategies for use of text in recapping highlight moments to Dota 2 spectators. KEYWORDS Esport, Data-Driven Storytelling, Dota 2, Game Analytics, Broadcasting, social viewing, Linguistic Resources, Natural Language Generation. 1. INTRODUCTION Advances in Natural language generation (NLG) and data-to-text tools have found relative success outside esport (e.g. weather forecasting, robojournalism, traditional sport summaries and fantasy football).

  • Analyzing Factors Contributing to the Success of a Team in Dota 2
    DEGREE PROJECT IN TECHNOLOGY, FIRST CYCLE, 15 CREDITS STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN 2018 Analyzing Factors Contributing to the Success of a Team in Dota 2 JOHN ANDERSSON OSKAR ALIN KTH ROYAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING SCIENCES www.kth.se EXAMENSARBETE INOM TEKNIK, GRUNDNIVÅ, 15 HP STOCKHOLM, SVERIGE 2018 Analys av faktorer som bidrar till ett Dota 2 lags framgång JOHN ANDERSSON OSKAR ALIN KTH SKOLAN FÖR TEKNIKVETENSKAP www.kth.se Abstract Competitive gaming or E-Sport is more popular than ever, this has resulted in an increase in the number of players and tournament prize pools. In traditional sports demographic factors have been shown to have high predictive power when it comes to determining a country's success in the Olympic Games. Similar results have been found when it comes to E-sport which is why it is interesting to investigate whether there are any differences between regions in Dota 2 as well. The goal is to analyze factors that contribute to the success of a Dota 2 team by building a multiple-regression model. All data is collected from open sources and contains 55 active Dota 2 teams that have been playing between 2011 - 2018. The factors in the final model is the sum of the individual players estimated skill, the skill difference between the highest and lowest rated players on the team, the number of games the team has played and organization region. The result gives an insight in what a person or organization would want to look at when researching a team as well as a model that can be used to predict how good a team will perform.
