Mediated reality

An apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one memory, the memory comprising machine-readable instructions, that when executed cause the apparatus to:

• cause display of a virtual scene of a virtual space from a current point of view at a current position;
• determine a sequence of distinct viewpoints of at least a portion of the virtual space;
• cause display of a user-input artificial virtual object overlaid on the virtual scene, the user-input artificial virtual object and indicating a plurality of selectable elements, each of the selectable elements overlaid in a position over the virtual scene corresponding to positions of the respective distinct viewpoints of the virtual scene, that when selected, provide for changing a point of view of the displayed virtual scene;
• map a three-dimensional gesture of a user to a corresponding three-dimensional gesture in the virtual space that interacts with the user-input artificial virtual object for changing the point of view of the user of the virtual scene from at least a first point to a second viewpoint in the sequence of distinct viewpoints;
• and
• in response to determining that the corresponding three-dimensional gesture in the virtual space interacts with the user-input artificial virtual object, display to the user a new virtual scene of the virtual space from a new point of view at a new position different than the current position.
