Interactive Narrative-First Idea

I have been given the task to create an interactive narrative about a place in Nottingham that means something to me so of course the first thing without came into my mind was Hucknall as I was born there and most of my relevitives live there so it was the obvisious place for me.

The first idea I had was to go from past to present around Hucknall visiting all of the places that I remember and looking at now things have changed in the last 14 years since I last lived there.

This idea was good but it would be very difficult for me to create for a number of reasons
  • I would have to go to the local newspaper which would be difficult
  • A number of things have changed in Hucknall that i would not be able ot cover
  • it would be difficult to cover such a large area

Group 13

Given we were group 13 I thought our bad luck had already started when we started off a group of three, two group members down. But in the end it all worked out really good and now I‘m a very proud member of group 13. We ROCK!!!

Well we started off as a group of three as we could not find 2 members of our group so therefore I, Les and Rimante put together our ideas for our short narrative. Then lucky we found one of our missing group members David. So we filled David in on the ideas we had and began to write a brief for our short film. We had decided that we were going to make a short 2 min braided narrative on Discrimination. We decided to do this as we have 3 people in the group that look at discrimination differently. Within our group we have Rimante who is from a different country so therefore she has a foreign accent. We have Les who is a black male and we have me who has a disability so be decided to look at personal issues and points of view.
