Interactive Narrative Project: Design

After looking at my researsch and different interactive narratives i started spitballing some ideas on what kind of narratives i could produce.

here are my notes on the ideas i came up with:

I like alot of the ideas on the page but some of them require alot of time and extensive flash knowledge to create so i have decided that i am going to run with the zombie idea.

One of the main reasons that i came up with the zombie idea was because i hade recently watched zombieland and that when encountering zombies there are rules to follow to surevive. This quality made me think that creating a zombie themed flash I.N.would have both a great narrative and interesting interactivity.

Looking back at some of my research i noticed one video that inspired me, the "HIT ME" video. i thought i could have the same interactive experience for the zombie encounter, but adding my creative touch to it.

Now that i have my final idea i have to decide what medium i should use to build my creative vision.

Here are my ideas:

I know there are only a few ideas here but these are all the techniques i can produce in the three week timeframe.

I think to stice to one medium would be abit boring so im going to Use 3D photos,Photo's, Movies from a camera phone. Hopefully these mediums will increae the interest of my interactive narrative.

The next step is to create my zombie based narrative and see if it works. 

Here is my sketch book results:

Now from what i can see it works but i think the only way out is to build it and see what happens.

Now in this design tree i have noticed there i a key interactive section which i need to test first. When it's finished it will be so much easier to add in the narrative sections.



The only way to test the interactive section is to build it, so im going to create a flash based demo of the interactive section.

Here is a list which i created and a mini design tree to help me produce the demo:
