linear to non-linear narrative experiences.
!Distro / Mktg - communicate to viewers their different
choices for where/how they can consume the story.
THE PROMISE
New revenue opportunities - a film is also a tv/web
series/motion comic/indie-game/etc.
!Production costs savings - assets can be used across
various channels.
!In some cases Mktg can better blend into storytelling.
!A new canvas to create moments of magic / innovation.

EXERCISE
Premise: The population demographics of the United States are changing. It is predicted that in the next 20 years, white descendants of European immigrants will no longer be the majority in this country. This year, the subject of immigration will take center stage as a bipartisan push to tackle immigration reform ensues. !Idea: Most people in the U.S. have an immigrant journey to share -- be it their own or the voyage of a relative in the past. !Goal: Create an experience that helps people share their own immigration story, and enables them to see the common threads between the stories of potential immigrants, new immigrants and longtime residents.
