Interactive Digital Moviemaking Workshop

Christopher Hales

20.2. ­ 27.2.2004, HFF, Munich
Application deadline: 20.1.2004

> This practical workshop deals with the design and production of desktop
> interactive non-linear narratives using "live-action" video footage.
> 
> All the different aspects of creating interactive movies will be explored,
> although the emphasis will be  on the visual metaphors for interaction rather
> than written scriptwriting: participants will be asked to think laterally
> about their definition of narrative when issues of interactivity are
> concerned.
> 
> Actual desktop production techniques will be demonstrated, but the course will
> concentrate on innovative and aesthetic issues rather than detailed technical
> complexities of delivery platform and software.
> 
> A lecture-based strand of this workshop presents ways in which moving images
> have been, and could be, made interactive ­ investigating structure, interface
> and metaphor, and the importance of content.
> 
> There will also be some discussion of the relevance of newly developing
> 'convergence' areas of interactive digital TV and set-top boxes.
> 
> The practical strand shows how actual products could be piloted on a
> low-budget desktop system. Video cameras are provided for participants to
> generate their own video footage as a response to the techniques learnt, and
> the digital production cycle from video acquisition to multimedia authoring
> (Director) will be demonstrated.
> 
> Within the short span of the course each participant (or small group) should
> be able to produce a modest piece of interactive digital video for
> presentation on the final day and to take home with them from the workshop.
