ENG 219 - Digital and Immersive Storytelling: Creative Writing Across Mediums

In this generative and analytical course, we will consider different forms of creative writing and story-telling by taking story “off the page” and discussing how different media formats inspire and inform the stories we want to tell. We will explore the creative storytelling potential of various platforms, technologies, and levels of audience immersion. Creative mediums we’ll explore might include prose screen adaptation, table game design, podcasts, video game narrative, virtual and augmented reality experiences, developing transmedia events, and interactive story-telling. Note: This course is not a Humanities distribution. Course Typically Offered: Every 2 years.
