1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a processor, a plurality of video streams depicting a live event occurring in a venue, wherein the plurality of video streams is provided to the processor by a plurality of cameras which are geographically distributed within the venue;
identifying, by the processor, an initial position of a target that is present in the venue, based on an analysis of the plurality of video streams;
compositing, by the processor, the plurality of video streams to produce a first volumetric video traversal of the live event, wherein the first volumetric video traversal comprises a first continuous sequence of viewpoints of the live event that follows the target through the venue;
predicting, by the processor, a future position of the target in the venue at a future point in time, based in part on a current position of the target; and
sending, by the processor, an alert to a display device that is streaming a second volumetric video traversal of the live event comprising a second continuous sequence of viewpoints of the live event that is different from the first continuous sequence of viewpoints of the live event, wherein the alert changes an appearance of the target in the second volumetric video traversal of the live event.
