Classification: CPC G  A | IPC A  G

Claim 0:
1. A system configured to generate and/or modify three-dimensional scenes comprising animated characters based on individual asynchronous motion capture recordings, the system comprising:
one or more sensors configured to capture motion and/or sound made by one or more users in a physical space and generate output signals conveying information related to the motion and/or the sound made;
one or more presentation devices that present virtual reality content to one or more users;
one or more processors configured by machine-readable instructions to:
receive selection of a first character and a second character to virtually embody within the virtual space such that virtually embodying the first character and the second character enables a first user to record the motion and/or the sound to be made by the first character and a second character within a compiled virtual reality scene;
record, responsive to the selection of the first character and the second character, first motion capture information characterizing the motion and/or the sound made by the first user as the first user virtually embodies the first character and the second character, wherein the first motion capture information is captured in a manner such that actions of the first user are manifested by the first character and the second character within the compiled virtual reality scene;
receive selection of a third character to virtually embody, wherein the third character is separate and distinct from the first character and the second character, and wherein virtually embodying the third character enables a second user to record the motion and/or the sound to be made by the third character within the compiled virtual reality scene;
contemporaneous to the recording of the first motion capture information, record second motion capture information that characterizes the motion and/or the sound made by the second user as reactions to the motions and/or sounds of the first user virtually embodying the first character and second character or cause the motion and/or the sound made by the first user, wherein the second motion capture information is captured in a manner such that actions of the second user are manifested by the third character synchronously with the actions of the first user manifested by the first character and the second character within the compiled virtual reality scene; and
generate the compiled virtual reality scene including animation of the first character, the second character, and the third character such that the first character, the second character, and the third character appear animated within the compiled virtual reality scene contemporaneously.
