PRODUCTION OF TRANSMEDIA EXPERIENCE

This project should use digital technologies to tell a specific story across digital media. Use text, images, audio, graphics, and (if possible) video. The project should provide evidence of social engagement. It should also show an engagement with existing projects that are to be used as models for your work. In addition to the project itself, you should provide a 3 page narrative of your methodology, including a description of the technologies used and why you chose these technologies to tell your story, a rationale for the process (why you chose it, what impact you want to make on, and who you hope to reach), and a description of your biggest challenges met along the way.

 

I recommend you use blogging and Google Mapping as your primary tools.

 

Your project must be distributed online by December 18.
