Web - Narrative

In Web, We have been tasked to Create a interactive narrative displayed within a website.

The schedule for the next 4 weeks:

Telling a story with web

• Telling a story with perspective.

• You choose how you navigate. And become a part of making of the story.

• The user can be a character or author in the story.

  • Hyper link
  • HTML

• Web was designed to connect databases together.

• Traditional idea of narrative

  • A leaner process. Serious of action points that link together and climax.

• Canonical storyflow - straightforward story.

  • Non leaner story flow.
    • But have lots of options to add information and to add side stories.
      • And eventually ending with the ending.

• Elements of drama.

  • Six Elements:
    • good plot.
    • Character.
    • Thoughts.
    • Diction.
    • Song.
    • Spectacle.

• Summaries. Difficult to read big block text. So use images animation and story. Or implied story. Reader to do the work.

• Code is like telling a story.

  • It’s like interactive story telling.
    • Such as a flow diagram.

Can use Plot generator. For idea.

Things to think about for the brief:

• Structure of Project.
