DiGRA and Serious Games

Conference, game, , ,

I am off to Denmark 25 August-5 September, as a guest of the research project ‘Serious Games on a Global Market Place’. Simon and the Serious Games Interactive are doing some interesting things with history!

And it looks like I will give an informal talk to CITA at  The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, School of Architecture, Copenhagen, Thursday 25 September and then over the following weekend drive up to Stockholm. Then there is a side trip to DIGRA in London (September 1-3)  to present a paper “Keeping it Reel-Is Machinima a Form of Art”?, and to be part of a panel to discuss the relationship between film and games.

What Can We Do With Interactive Movie Making?

Conference, , ,

What are the parameters of interactive film? There has been some interesting discussion on storytelling versus authorial control of the camera at 3rd person cinema. There is now also the ability to create your own trails in video via interactive video object animation. Not to mention the crowd-pleasing opportunity to place your own face over video characters along with your voice.
