The Space, in association with Arts Council England is hosting a webinar for arts organisations and artists who are interested in ‘choose your own adventure’ as a way of enhancing their storytelling.

Online platforms supporting branching narrative have become increasingly accessible – offering low-cost approaches to content creation, and you don’t need to know how to code to make use of them.

In this webinar we look at two distinct case studies which share common themes: in both cases the branching narrative is at the heart of the storytelling, and this was a first venture into developing a project for online audiences using this technology.

 

We cover:

• Planning, building and publishing interactive experiences
• How a branching narrative might enrich your work
• Creating an experience that resonates with the audience
