Master Thesis Project : Making a 'Transmedial Diegetic Narrative'
Purpose of the project: This project explores the creation and development of a ‘transmedial diegetic narrative’, wherein two or more media/platforms/etc., as vectors of discovery, push the viewer through different levels of engagement.
This Master’s thesis project was a collaborative effort between two students at The Royal Danish Academy. Mads was responsible for conceptualising and developing the story and idea, while I was responsible for visualising the comic — one of the three media platforms through which the narrative was told.
