Thank You!

• Transmedia Storytelling – Where did the story go? (why down prioritize the story?)

Big community (UK and London in particular) vs. a small community (Odense)

• Convergence Culture: Changing the common Protocols around Red Nose Day (as a brand)

Creative ways of using Augmented Reality and LBGs

How could the “Lost Golden Nose” benefit from Cultural Probes?

• The “Lost Golden Nose” in the future?

Could “Lost Golden Nose” be combined with “5 seconds of Fame” (concept idea) somehow?

• Media storm: What consequences can the latest media attention have on our concept and Red Nose Day in general?

suggestions for discussion

• team– budget– resources– time

• previous experience• complex story• duration

where did the story go?

Transmedia Story

• what Comic Relief originally wanted– story across multiple platforms (with noses hidden)

• Facebook and Twitter• campaign website• video• blogs• real world locations (our application)

– everything should lead up to the show on March 15– change the way people experience RND– stronger Transmedia story– increase the flow of content across many platforms

• encourage people to seek out new information and makeconnections among dispersed media content

– participatory culture• invite fans/customers of RND to actively participate in the creation and circulation of

content (why have the red noses disappeared?)
