Aim: To develop an understanding of interactive narratives by analysing existing examples and using research to inform ideas for an interactive short film ending.
Objectives: Identify the interactive challenge they are responding to within creative media production.
Research interactive narratives (e.g. interactive films, games, web-based stories).
Analyse how interactivity is used in professional examples to engage audiences.
Explain how research findings will influence their own creative decisions.
Generate initial ideas for an interactive short film ending informed by research.

Interactive Unit 7.pdfDiscussion: Before I show you some examples of interactive short films- I want you to think of an example that you have seen or interacted with- think of video games. Where the decisions you make influence the path the character goes on and the story. OR if you have seen or used an interactive film or TV show like Black Mirror or Bandersnatch.

Thinking of interactivity doesn't mean complexity. Your tasked to make a film in which a character- person or object- makes a decision. Based on this you are filming the main event (the lead up) the first choice (option 1) and the second choice (option 2). So by the end you will have 3 separate videos and the last 2 videos will be linked on the main event for the audience to choose a decision for the character.

Some ideas can be:
Main event Option 1 Option 2
Getting a text invite to a party Get ready and go to party Deny and stay home
Finding a penny on the floor Keeping it for yourself Putting it in a charity box
Walking up to a door with a warning sign Going in Walking away
REMEMBER YOU ARE ONLY DOING TWO CHOICES AND ONE MAIN EVENT!

2) Find examples which link to your idea (make sure they are interactive)- you can use some the examples above if needed
3) Plan using the treatment plan and shot list
4) Film your idea
5) Edit your idea
6) Upload to YouTube
